  • Objectives: The study aimed to identify the oral health factors that affect the nutritional status of the elderly. Methods: The study was conducted over ten months from September 2013 to June 2014, and included senior citizens who were supported by the visiting health service. The rate of saliva release, the number of remaining teeth, and the ability of the elderly to identify nutritional conditions were evaluated. Statistical analyses were performed using the t-test, ANOVA, and multiple linear regression using SAS 9.4 (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA.). Results: The study participants had an average irritation saliva secretion rate of $2.26{\pm}1.11mg$ per minute. The higher the rate of saliva secretion, the higher the mini nutritional assessment (MNA) score (p<0.001). The average number of remaining teeth was $8.21{\pm}9.76$. The MNA scores were highest in groups with 11 or more remaining teeth (p=0.001). The factors that affected the nutritional condition of the elderly were their ability to perform activities of daily living, saliva flow rate, and number of remaining teeth. The highest correlation among them was that of the standardized regression coefficient was - 0.386 by activity daily living, followed by a 0.170 saliva secretion rate and 0.118 remaining teeth in daily life performance. Conclusions: Activities of daily living and rate of saliva secretion showed the highest correlations to nutritional status of the elderly.

  • In this study, polyvinylsiloxane impression materials were investigated to examine the characteristics of the impression materials that affect the accuracy of the final restoration. The flow property of impression materials which can reproduce the detail in the oral cavity and accurately duplicate it, and the tear strength and strain-in-compression which can cause problems when it is being removed from the oral cavity were studied. The results are as follows. 1. As for the flow properties of impression materials, Imprint II was 18.24${\pm}$0.30, which was the highest: and Twinz was 8.9${\pm}$0.62, which was the lowest. There was no significant difference among Imprint II, Examixfine, and Genie(p<0.05). 2. As for the tear strength of impression materials, Imprint II had the highest level, while Genie had the lowest value. There was no significant difference between Twinz and Genie(p<0.05). 3. As for the strain-in-compression, there were significant differences by impression material groups(p<0.05); the strain-in-compression of Examixfine was shown to be the highest at 5.56${\pm}$0.56, Twinz and Imprint II followed respectively, and Genie has the lowest at 3.19${\pm}$0.23. 4. Flow showed the correlation with tear strength but no significant connection to strain-in-compression. Also, there was no significant correlation between the tear strength and strain-in-compression (p<0.05). Making impression to reproduce oral tissue and tooth is an important part of making final restoration. The accuracy of impressions is influenced by the methods of taking impression or other condition. However the property itself of impression materials is the most essential and the materials with proper qualities should be selected.

  • Purpose: Observation of Oxide Film Formation and Bonding Strength according to surface treatment of Co-Cr Alloy for porcelain fused to Metal. Methods: metal specimens $0.5mm{\times}25mm{\times}4mm$ in size were made using Co-Cr alloys for porcelain fused to metal crown (Heraenium P, Tae jung Medis). Dental porcelain $0.5mm{\times}25mm{\times}4mm$ in size was sintered on the metal specimens after changing the etching time, sandblasting condition, and heat treatment temperature. Subsequently, the bonding strength was compared by the three-point flexural strength test using a universal testing machine (UTM) to observe the fracture surface and oxidized layers. Results: With regard to the experimental group treated with acid-etching, Specimen 1 treated for 25 minutes (B-3) showed the highest bonding strength, and Specimen 2 treated only with sandblasting showed the most excellent bonding force at 3.5 bar (C-3). With regard to the experimental group treated with sandblasting at 3.5 bar after acid-etching for 25 minutes, Specimen 3 with heat treatment at $980^{\circ}C$ (D-3) showed the highest bonding strength. Conclusion: The specimen which went through both sandblasting and etching, showed an excellent ceramicmetal bond strength.

  • Purpose: Pineal gland calcification has been proposed to play a role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease. This study evaluated the prevalence and extent of pineal gland calcification in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of patients referred for dental implant therapy who could possibly be a vulnerable group for this condition. Materials and Methods: A retrospective evaluation of 500 CBCT scans was conducted. Scans that showed the area where the pineal gland was located were included. The scans were initially screened by a single observer to record the prevalence and extent of calcification. Six weeks following the completion of the study, another investigator randomly reviewed and selected 50 scans to investigate inter-observer variation, which was evaluated using reliability analysis statistics. The prevalence and measurements of the calcifications were reported using descriptive statistics. The chi-square test was used to compare the prevalence between males and females. Results: The prevalence of pineal gland calcification was 58.8%. There was no statistically significant correlation between age and the extent of the calcification. The prevalence of calcification was 58.6% in females and 59.0% in males. The average anteroposterior measurement was $3.73{\pm}1.63mm$, while the average mediolateral measurement was $3.47{\pm}1.31mm$. The average total calcified area was $9.79{\pm}7.59mm^2$. Conclusion: The prevalence of pineal gland calcification was high in patients undergoing implant therapy. While not all pineal gland calcifications lead to neurodegenerative disorders, they should be strongly considered in the presence of any symptoms as a reason to initiate further investigations.

  • This research was to investigate and study on 92 Dental Technicians who had had some experience of working or being employed at dental craft-shops or craft-rooms in Seoul area and had transferred to other types of occupation, with regard to their reasons for changing their profession. For an approach to the study, some questionnaires and interview including 3 aspects of in quiriesmental, economic and social backgrounds-were administered, and major findings are as follows ; 1. The ages in which transferring to other kinds of job happened occurred mostly from 20 to 30(78.26%) an a group of subjects whose ages ranged from 20 to 30 years old. And, with regard to their experience of working or being employed at dental craft-shops or craftrooms, the transfer of their profession to the other kinds mosty happened in a group of subjects(94.56%) whose experience of working in the dental field is less than 4 years. 2. The reason of transfer with reference to the mental background was mostly mattered in a group that expressed "Excessive Work Duties"(34.78%), and most lowly mattered in a group of subjets who had "Certain Relations with Dentists"(8.70%). Thus, it appeared that the biggest reason of transfer by the mental background was, due to the excessive duty work, not to have Sufficient time to be usualized by dental technicians for their own purpose. 3. With reference to the economical background, a group that declared there was "No Wage Standards in Ratio to Their Labor" was the most in the separation rate as shown 45.56%. And, a group suspecting "No Guarantee for Their Living after Retirement" Showed a separation rate, 9.78%. In other words, the reason for transfer was that they did not receive due wage according to their amount of labor. 4. With reference to the social background, a group making a subject for no good working environments or conditions had a separation rate, 41.30%, which was the most among others, and a group with a subject of "The Rarity of Employment because of Excessive Supply of Dental Technicians" had the rate, 10.87%, which was the lowest. This meant that the major cause of transfer by the social background was a phenomenon for dental technicans to escape from unclean working places.
