완전 무치악 환자에서 상악은 전통적인 총의치 치료를 통해 충분한 안정, 지지 및 유지를 얻기 용이하지만, 하악은 해부학적 한계로 인하여 치료에 어려움이 있기 때문에 임플란트를 동반한 치료를 고려할 수 있다. 구치부에 임플란트 식립이 어려운 경우에는 이공 전방에 4 - 5개의 임플란트를 이용하여 하악의 의치를 고정해주는 하이브리드 형 고정성 총의치로 치료할 수 있고, 구치부에 임플란트 식립이 가능한 경우라면 다수 유닛으로 구성되는 임플란트 지지 고정성 보철물을 고려할 수 있다. 이러한 접근방식은 시대가 지남에 따라 수술방식이나 사용하는 재료 등이 다양하게 변해왔다. 본 증례에서는 상악 총의치를 사용하는 완전 무치악 환자의 하악에서 임플란트를 이용한 고정성 보철 치료의 증례를 중심으로 치료 방법을 비교해 보고자 한다.

The completely edentulous patient has few treatment options in conventional dentistry. When implants are considered, treatment plans range from a 2-implant overdenture to a completely implant-supported prosthesis. Fixed prosthesis is often the preferred selection of the edentulous patient. fixed full-arch cert amo-metal restorations can be a predictable implant treatment modality for the edentulous patient. Implant-supported fixed prosthesis has several advantages: predictability, fixedness, retrievability, improved function, lower maintenance of prosthesis, long-term published success. Edentulous patients with a severely resorbed mandible often experience problems with their dentures. Treatment concepts involving two to four implants for the support of an overdenture have been proposed. There seems to be no need to insert more than two endosteal implants to support an overdenture, however, long-term prospective studies are needed to support this notion. Using short endosseous implants and an overdenture in the extremely resorbed mandible is a justified treatment option because of the relative simplicity and low morbidity of this treatment strategy. Implant-supported overdenture has several advantages: Cost, retrievability, hygiene access, profile and contour control, increased retention and stability, implant installed in a predicted region(ant. mandible).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of cantilever length, load, and implant number on the stress distribution of implant supported fixed prosthesis. In the replica of an edentulous human mandible, four or five implants were placed and spaced evenly between the mental foramina and symmetrical gold alloy cast superstructures with cantilever were fabricated. Strain gauges were placed in buccal and lingual side of implants. 9, 15, 21kg of loads at varying cantilever lengths were applied to the occlusal surface of fixed prostheses. The strains were recorded from each gauge and principal stresses were calculated The results were as follows : 1. Increasing the length of the cantilever increased the stresses on the bone supporting implants. and the ratio of increase became high as increasing the load. 2. In the model with four implants, the highest compressive stress was measured on lingual side of the first implants nearest loading point and the highest tensile stress was measured on buccal side of the second implants. 3. In the model with five implants, the highest compressive stress was measured on lingual side of the first implants nearest loading point. And the highest tensile stress was measured on buccal side of the second implants, and lingual side of the third implants. 4. There was no significant change of the magnitude of stress on the most distal imp]ant of non cantilevered side as increasing the cantilever length or load. 5. In general, the superstructure supported by five implants reduced the stress and was less affected by cantilever length compared to the support provided by four implants.

무치악 환자의 구강 재건을 위한 임플란트를 활용한 치료 계획으로는 임플란트 지지 고정성 가공 의치, 임플란트 피개 의치, 임플란트 보조 국소의치 등이 있으며, 각각의 방식에 대한 적응증과 장단점이 다양하다. 본 증례의 환자는 상악 국소의치의 모든 잔존 지대치의 발거가 필요했으며 후방부 잔존골이 부족하여 식립 가능한 임플란트의 개수가 한정적이었다. 따라서 골 지지가 양호한 전방부에 4개의 임플란트 식립하여 임플란트 지지 서베이드 크라운과 후방연장 임플란트 보조 국소의치로 수복해주었고 환자에게 경제적으로 효과적이면서도 심미적, 기능적으로 만족스러운 결과를 제공하였다. 상악 무치악 환자에게 이와 같은 치료 계획은 경우에 따라 임플란트 피개의치의 대안으로 사용될 수 있으며 임상적, 생역학적 유효성을 검증하기 위해 더 많은 연구가 필요하다.

PURPOSE. This study evaluated the effect of span length on the adaptation of implant-supported cobalt chromium frameworks fabricated by three techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Models with two solid abutment analogs at different inter-abutment distances were digitized using a laboratory scanner. Frameworks of two-, three-, and four-unit fixed prostheses were designed by a computer. Six dots with a diameter of 0.2 mm were preset on the surface of each framework. A total of 54 implant-supported cobalt chromium frameworks were fabricated by milling, selective laser melting (SLM), and cast techniques. The frameworks were scanned and exported as Stereolithography files. Distances between two dots in X, Y, and Z coordinates were measured in both the designed and fabricated frameworks. Marginal gaps between the framework and the abutments were also evaluated by impression replica method. RESULTS. In terms of distance measurement, significant differences were found between three- and four-unit frameworks, as well as between two- and four-unit frameworks prepared by milling technique (P<.05). Significant differences were also noted between two- and three-unit frameworks, as well as between two- and four-unit frameworks prepared by cast technique (P<.05). The milling technique presented smaller differences than the SLM technique, and the SLM technique showed smaller differences than the cast technique at any unit prostheses (P<.05). Evaluation with the impression replica method indicated significant differences among the span lengths for any fabrication method (P<.05), as well as among the fabrication methods at any unit prostheses (P<.05). CONCLUSION. The adaptation of implant-supported cobalt chromium frameworks was affected by the span length and fabrication method.

편악 부분 무치악 환자를 치료하는 경우, 적절한 수복 재료를 사용하는 것이 중요하다. 적절하지 않은 수복 재료는 보철 수복의 결과에 좋지 않은 영향을 줄 수 있다. 현재 널리 사용되고 있는 재료들인 지르코니아와 치과용 합금은 피질골보다 탄성 계수가 높아 외력 발생시 임플란트 및 임플란트 주위 골에 유해한 힘을 가할 수 있다. 최근 새롭게 소개된 재료인 Polyetherketoneketone (PEKK)은 피질골과 유사한 탄성계수를 가졌으며, 물리적 특성 및 생체 친화성에 있어서도 많은 이점을 가지고 있다. 본 증례에서는 PEKK를 이용한 임플란트 지지형 고정성 보철치료를 진행하였고 기능적, 심미적으로 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of canine guidance occlusion and group function occlusion on the degree of stress to the bone, implants, abutments, and crowns using finite element analysis (FEA). MATERIALS AND METHODS. This study included the implant-prosthesis system of a three-unit bridge made of monolithic zirconia and hybrid abutments. Three-dimensional (3D) models of a bone-level implant system and a titanium base abutment were created using the original implant components. Two titanium implants, measuring 4 × 11 mm each, were selected. The loads were applied in two oblique directions of 15° and 30° under two occlusal movement conditions. In the canine guidance condition, loads (100 N) were applied to the canine crown only. In the group function condition, loads were applied to all three teeth. In this loading, a force of 100 N was applied to the canine, and 200-N forces were applied to each premolar. The stress distribution among all the components of the implant-bridge system was assessed using ANSYS SpaceClaim 2020 R2 software and finite element analysis. RESULTS. Maximum stress was found in the group function occlusion. The maximum stress increased with an increase in the angle of occlusal force. CONCLUSION. The canine guidance occlusion with monolithic zirconia crown materials is promising for implant-supported prostheses in the canine and premolar areas.

This case study was to report the possible increase in the denture retention and psychological relief using the implant-supported fixed prostheses in a completely edentulous patient. The implants were placed in the anterior portion of the mandible in a patient who had completely edentulous state following the extraction of residual abutment teeth, and consequently a distal extension removable partial denture was fabricated. The patient's adaptation and satisfaction to the new prosthesis was monitored and confirmed in terms of masticatory function and esthetics, by restoring the oral condition similar to initial status before the residual teeth extraction. After 6 months, radiographic examination confirmed that both the abutment teeth and the implants were stable and well maintained. Considering the relatively short clinical follow-up period, however, continuous long-term monitoring was required.
