The successful use of osseointegrated implants to replace missing teeth has been demonstrated for both the completely and the partially edentulous patients. Many studies have confirmed an excellent long-term prognosis. The successful outcome of any implant procedure is surely dependent on the interrelationship of the various components that includes the following: biocompatibility of the implant material, macroscopic and microscopic nature of the implant surface, the status of the implant bed in both a health(noninfected) and a morphologic(bone quality) context, the surgical technique, the undisturbed healing phase, the subsequent prosthetic design, and long-term loading phase. Periodontally compromised patients have poor status of the implant bed and periodontal pathogen. No longitudinal data are available whether these factors affect the prognosis of implants. In this study, 102 machined $Br{{\aa}}nemark$ implants are inserted to analyze the success rate of 1-4 years and marginal bone loss in 49 chronic periodontitis patients. The following conclusions could be drawn from this study. 1. The cumulative success rate of implants at the 4-year of loading was 95.10%. 2. 5 failed implants have been removed. One implant have been removed due to infection, two implants were removed due to failure of osseointegration. and other two implants were removed due to mechanical failure caused by over-loading. 3. Mean marginal bone loss from the time of loading was 0.94mm at first year, 1.12mm at second year, 1.25mm at third year. These results suggest that implant therapy is good treatment modality in chronic periodontitis patients, and periodontal treatment including oral hygiene program is completed prior to insertion of implants.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of early functional load around osseointegrated titanium implants. 24 titanium plasma spray coated implants (ITI HS-type) were placed into the previously extracted site in the mandible of six adult dogs. The implants were divided into three groups : the control group was the implants without abutment during the experimental period; the experimental group I was loaded by connecting the contoured abutment after 6 weeks of healing; the experimental group II was loaded after 12 weeks of healing: and the mandibular second premolar and surrounding tissues were selected for natural tooth group to compare the implanted group. All dogs were injected intravenously tetracycline, alizarin red S, and calcein for bone labeling. After the experimental period of 18 weeks, the dogs were sacrificed and longitudinal sections of the bone-implant interface were cut and observed using light microscope, scanning electron microscope, and fluorescence microscope. The results of the study were as follows: 1. Light and scanning electron microscopically, all implant surfaces were well contact with bone tissue at the cortical layer, but some areas of cancellous bone were not contact directly. 2. Fluorescence microscopically, number and size of the new secondary osteons around the implant were increased than those of the natural tooth. 3. Fluorescence microscopically, linear and concentrical fluorescence was observed at or near the surface of all implants, and the bone formation and remodeling of the implants loaded after 6 week of healing were great, and unloaded implants were worst. 4. Fluorescence microscopically, endosteal bone formation was greater than periosteal bone formation at or near the implants. 5. Fluorescence microscopically, number and size of linear and concentric fluorescence was increased at the lingual side than the buccal side of the loaded implants. The result of the study indicate the possibility of the early load to the implant via a prosthesis.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the stress distribution of the natural teeth, the implant, the prosthesis and the supporting tissue according to the types of implant and connection modality in the five-unit fixed partial denture with a implant pier abutment. A Two dimensional stress analysis model was constructed to represent a mandible missing the first and second premolars and first molar. The model contained a canine and second molar as abutment teeth and implant pier abutments with and without stress-absorbing element. Finite element models were created and analyzed using software ANSYS 4.4A for IBM 32bit personal computer. The results obtained were as follows. 1. Implant group, compared to the natural teeth group, showed a maximum principal stress at the superior portion of implants and a stress concentration at :he neck and end portion. 2. Maximum principal stress and maximum Von Mises stress were always lower in the case of rigid connection than nonrigid connection. 3. A cylinder type implant with stress absorbing element and screw type implant were generally similar in the stress distribution pattern. 4. A screw type implant, compared to the cylinder type implant, showed a relatively higher stress concentration at both neck and end portion of it. 5. Load B cases showed higher stress concentration on the posterior abutments in the case of nonrigid connector than rigid connector. 6. A maximum displacement was always lower in the case of rigid connection than nonrigid connection. These results suggest that osseointegrated implant can be used as an intermediate abutment.

Osseointegrated implant prostheses are to provide normal function without compromising the unique interaction between the tissue and the implant. The essential requirement for the osseointegrated implant prostheses is passive fit of abutment. Therefore, the impression must be accurate and reproduciable since the resultant master cast precisely duplicates the clinical condition. The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of the master casts obtained from five impression techniques. Group 1 : To take impression with indirect technique and Impregum F. Group 2 : To take impression with unsplinted direct technique and Impregum F. Group 3 : To take impression with splinted direct technique and Impregum F. Group 4 : To take impression with unsplinted direct technique and Xanthano. Group 5 : To take impression with splinted dierct technique and Xanthano. The results were as follow : 1. In taking impression of Impregum F, there was no significant difference between to use of indirect technique and unsplinted direct technique.(p<0.05) 2. Unsplinted direct technique with Impregum F is less accurate than splinted direct technique with Impregum F or Xanthano and unsplinted direct technique with Xanthano.(p<0.05). 3. There was no significant difference between splinted direct technique with Impregum F and unsplinted direct technique with Xanthano.(p<0.05) 4. Splinted direct technique reproduce more accurate than unsplinted direct technique.(p<0.05) 5. Impression plaster produced less distortion than polyether.(p<0.05) As a result, splinted direct technique with Xanthano was the most accurate technique. As a result, splinted direct technique with Xanthano was the most accurate technique in this study. In addition to dimensinal changes in the materials used, positional errors were also attributed to the mechanical components used in the transfer porocess. Although the errors measured were relatively small, this study demonstrates the potential for distortions with the transfer technique used. Further study is indicated that ?the technique will be able to reproduce the intraoral relationship of implant fixtures reliably and predictably.

보철 수복용 임플란트는 소실된 구강조직을 회복하는데 매우 예측 가능한 치료방법으로 특히 교정치료를 위한 고정원으로 사용되었을 때 원하지 않는 고정원의 위치변화 없이 원하는 치아의 움직임만을 얻을 수 있는 효과적인 치료 방법 중 하나이다. 특히 수복해야 할 무치악 부위가 존재하는 경우 장래 보철적 지대치로 이용될 임플란트를 교정치료 전에 미리 식립하여 교정적 고정원으로 사용한다면 고정용 나사 식립을 위한 추가적인 비용이 없고, 교정력에 의한 고정용 나사의 탈락과 같은 부작용 없이 효과적인 고정원으로써 사용될 수 있을 것이다. 교정력은 골유착된 임플란트에 골소실을 야기하지 않으며 임플란트의 종류와 수술 방법, 치유 기간은 일반적인 치료과정 을 따르면 된다. 다만 한번 골유착된 임플란트는 위치를 변화시킬 수 없으므로 치료를 시작하기 전에 임플란트 식립 시기 및 식립 위치에 대한 정확한 진단이 반드시 선행되어야 할 것이다.

Osseointegrated prosthetic auricular reconstruction can be classified as either direct or indirect. In the $Br{\aa}nemark $ system of direct osseointegration, implants are placed into the mastoid process of the temporal bone. In the Epitec system of indirect osseointegration, implants are inserted into a three-dimensional carrier plate that is fixed to the mastoid by means of screws. We experienced forty-four cases using the indirect system and seventeen cases using the direct system. We compared with two systems by complications, such as skin reaction, implant loosening, implant loss. There were no specific differences in the skin reaction around the implants and abutments in relation to age or system used. The degree of skin reaction was different according to the conditions around the implant: in cases of virgin microtia, a skin flap was used to cover the implant, in contrast to grafted skin coverage for failed autogenous reconstruction. In both systems, the skin reaction was more severe and frequent in skin flap than in grafted skin. Loosening of the implant was more frequent in the direct system; however, accidental detachment of the implant from the abutment was more frequent in the indirect system. To reduce complications of skin reaction in osseointegrated prosthetic auricular reconstruction, it is important for soft tissue around implant to immobilize. Therefore, grafted skin is better than skin flap as soft tissue around implant. And immobilization of soft tissue around implant by wound dressing is major facter.

The successful replacement of missing teeth has been one driving aim behind the emergence of implant dentistry as both a technology and clinical vocation for over four decades. To date, a multitude of dental implant devices had been designed and utilized in the patient population. Most of these devices have been designed without support of the engineering criteria. The long-term success of any dental implant is dependent upon the optimization of stresses which occurs during oral function and parafunction. Although many studies have examined the biologic interactions between dental implants and living tissue, few studies have been reported on the biomechanical aspects of dental implants. The purpose of this study was to analyze the stress distribution of osseointegrated prosthesis on certain conditions, such as amount of load, location of load, length of fixtures, number of fixtures used, arch shape, bone quality, etc. Three dimentional finite element analysis was used for this study. FEM models were created using commercial software(Super SAP. for IBM 16 bit AT computer. All elements were 8-node brick, isoparametric. Mandible and prosthesis was modeled with 780 elements and 1074 nodes. The results were as follows : 1. In case of cantilever extension, there was a compressive stress at the base of the first implant and a tensile stress at the base of the second implant. 2. The stresses were linearly proportional to the amount of load. 3. The stresses were linearly proportional to the length of cantilever. 4. There was a stress concentration at the neck of the implant and bone under horizontal loads.

The use of osseointegrated implant has been reported that is an acceptable procedure for the restoration of totally or partially edentulous patient and that offers good predictability of long term success. It is difficult to get high success rate in edentulous maxillae with inadequate bony quality and quantity, and anatomic limitations such as pneumatic maxillary sinus and nasal floor. The various trials such as sinus lifting, bone grafting, guided bone regeneration, trabecular condensation with osteotome, and the use of wide-diameter implant have been introduced to solve these problems. This study was undertaken to assess the evaluation of clinical prognosis of the implant restorations with these various implantation techniques in the maxillary edentulous area. One hundred eight patients were treated with a total of 386 endosseous implants from March 1994 to January 1998 at Dept. of Dentistry, Korea Veterans Hospital in Seoul Korea. The various techniques for implantation in the edentulous maxillae were supplied to overcome the limitations of implant fixation. These techniques consist of sinus lifting, guided bone regeneration, onlay bone grafting, and osteotome trabecular condensation technique. The total success rate of implant restoration of this study was 93% in the maxillae. The success rate of implant restorations with conventional technique was 94.6%, with osteotome trabecular condensation technique was 94.1%, with guided bone regeneration technique was 93.3%, with bone grafting technique was 92.9%, with sinus lifting technique was 83.8%. The success rate on the maxillary anterior area was 95.2% and that on the posterior area was 91.9%. The failures were associated not only with surgical installation techniques but also bony quality and quantity, characteristics of implant, and stress distribution when in function.

The purpose of this study was to examine, by the method of 3-dimentional finite element analysis. how infraocclusion affected the stress distribution in surrounding bone and osseointegrated prosthesis. The 3-dimentional finite element mandibular models were made, in which the first and second molars were removed and the two osseointegrated implants were placed in the first and second molar sites and implant supported fixed prostheses were constructed. Analysis of equivalent stress and displacement induced by strong occlusion or infraocclusion was performed under vertical or inclined distributed loads. The results were as follows; 1. Under vertical load of 50N or 500N, the model in which infraocclusion had not been allowed showed greater stress on implants and the supporting bone than on natural teeth. 2. In the model in which infraocclusion of $30{\mu}m$ had been allowed, implant-prosthesis on the molars had no contact with opposing teeth under vertical load of 50N, However with the same allowed infraocclusion and the model under vertical load of 500N, implant prosthesis on the second molar had contact with opposing teeth, and stress distribution occured properly on natural teeth and implants. 3. Under $45^{\circ}$ inclined load, the model in which infraocclusion had not been allowed showed greater stress on implants and the supporting bone than on natural teeth. There was greater stress in the case of $45^{\circ}$ inclined load than in the case of vertical load. 4. Under $45^{\circ}$ inclined load of 50N or 500N, the model in which infraocclusion of $30{\mu}m$, had been allowed showed no occlusal contact on the implants and occlusal contact on the natural teeth. 5. In partially edentulous cases with implant supported prosthesis, we can prevent excessive load on implants by allowing infraocclusion.
