According to repeated measurements and correction procedures, the accuracy of the phase-shifting profilometry was developed. At first, after 20 final models for maxillary complete denture were duplicated , the mucosa sur-faces of models were measured with the phase-shifting proflometry and each mirror view of these was calibrated. Maxillary casts were divided into 4 groups of 5 casts per each, and wax dentures with 2 sheets of baseplate wax and artificial teeth were made and then cured according to the curing method of each group. Group I ; quick curing with QC-20 acrylic resin Group II ; 9 hour curing with QC-20 acrylic resin Group III ; SR-Ivocap system Group IV ; metal base and quick curing with QC-20 acrylic resin. After curing, polishing, and storing at $37^{\circ}C$ in saline for 30 days, the forms of the impression surface of the dentures were measured with the phase-shifting profilometry. Then, the impression surface form of each denture was placed in the optimal position of com-parison with the mirror view of the same final cast. The amount and direction of distortion of each denture was analyzed and the effects of polishing and storage in each denture were compared, The obtained results were as follows : 1. In Group I, the denture was observed as the appearance distorted in the opposite direction of the mucosa and the postero-lateral part of palatal portion of the denture was observed as the appearance separated from the mucosa. Also, the buccal flanges of the denture were observed as the appearance distorted in the direction of the mucosa. 2. In Group II, the postero-lateral part of palatal portion of the denture was observed as the appearance separated slightly from the mucosa. The bilateral buccal flanges of denture were observed as the appearance distorted severely in the direction of the mucosa. 3. In Group III the bilateral part of the residual ridge crest portions and the buccal flanges of the denture were observed as the appearance distorted in the direction of the mucosa, and specially, the buccal flanges of the maxillary tuberosities were distorted severely. 4. In Group IV, the acrylic resin base of the buccal portion of the denture was observed as the appearance distorted in the opposite direction of the mucosa. 5. The phase-shifting profilometry, done with repeated measurements and correction procedures, was effective in comparing the amount and direction of distortion at every position after the laboratory work and the delivery of maxillary complete denture.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to analyze the shapes of lingual polished surfaces in lower complete dentures formed by polished surface impressions and to provide reference data for use when manufacturing edentulous trays and lower complete dentures. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Twenty-six patients with mandibular edentulism were studied. After lower wax dentures were fabricated, wax was removed from the lingual side of the wax denture and a lingual polished surface impression was obtained with tissue conditioner. The definitive denture was scanned with a three-dimensional scanner, and scanned images were obtained. At the cross-sections of the lingual frenum, lateral incisors, first premolars, first molars, and anterior border of the retromolar pads, three points were marked and eight measurements were taken. The Kruskal-Wallis test and a post hoc analysis with the Mann-Whitney test were performed. RESULTS. Each patient showed similar values for the same areas on the left and right sides without a statistically significant difference. The height of the contour of the lingual polished surface at the lingual frenum was halfway between the occlusal plane and lingual border, it moved gradually in a downward direction. The angle from the occlusal plane to the height of the contour of the lingual polished surface was increased as it progressed from the lingual frenum towards the retromolar pads. CONCLUSION. The shape of the mandibular lingual polished surface was convex at the lingual frenum, lateral incisors and gradually flattened towards the first molars and retromolar pads.

구강암의 발생 시, 구순의 결손과 방사선치료에 의한 치주조직과 치경부우식증 등의 문제가 발생할 수 있다. ADI (Association of dental implantology)에 의하면 상 하악골에 대한 방사선치료가 최근에 시행되었을 경우 임플란트를 식립하는 것은 상대적 비적응증이 된다. 대부분의 경우 임플란트를 이용한 보철물의 제작이 어렵고 의치를 사용한 수복이 이루어지게 된다. 특히, 구강암 수술로 인한 구순결손은 의치의 유지에 심각한 영향을 주게 된다. 본 증례는 상순암을 가진 환자로 일차적으로 절제술을 시행하고, 이차적으로 방사선 치료가 정기적으로 이루어진 결과, 환자의 상악 치아들은 순차적으로 자연 발치되었고, 하악은 매우 불량한 치주상태를 나타내었다. 상악은 총의치에 의치접착제를 적용하여 구순결손에 의한 의치의 유지력 저하를 극복하였고, 하악에서는friction pin을 이용한 하악이중관의치가 2년 동안 성공적으로 사용되었다.

현재까지 의치는 전통적인 방법을 이용하여 제작하는 것이 일반적이지만, 최근 디지털 기술의 발달로 이를 이용한 의치 제작 빈도가 증가하는 추세이다. 디지털 방식을 이용하여 의치를 제작하는 방법에는 인상체를 3D 스캔하여 CAD 상에서 인공치를 배열한 뒤 이를 3D 프린팅하여 레진상 총의치를 제작하는 방식과 모델을 3D 스캔 후 CAD를 이용하여 frame-work을 디자인하고 3D 프린팅으로 resin pattern을 제작하여 이를 주조 후 금속상 총의치나 국소의치를 제작하는 방식이 대표적이다. 본 증례에서는 디지털 방식의 의치 제작 방법으로써 전자 서베잉을 이용한 진단과 CAD 프로그램을 이용한 framework 디자인, 그리고 이를 3D 프린팅 후 주조하여 상악 총의치와 하악 국소의치를 제작하였으며, 만족스러운 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.

총의치 제작을 위한 개구인상법은 술자의 숙련도에 따라 다르게 나타나며, 특히 구강전정이 얕은 환자에서는 변연이 과연장되어 채득되는 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 제안된 폐구인상법을 통한 총의치는 연하나 교합 시 의치상연 주위 전체를 가동 점막으로 봉쇄하여 의치상 내면에 일시적 음압이 형성되게 하여 의치의 유지와 안정을 높이도록 고안된 의치이다. 또한, 인상 채득 시 교합채득 및 묘기판을 이용한다면 악간관계 기록이 동시에 이루어지기 때문에 기존의 통상적인 방법보다 환자의 내원 횟수를 줄일 수 있다. 이 증례는 구강전정이 얕아 하악 의치의 유지력이 떨어져 불편을 겪는 환자에서, 폐구인상법을 이용한 총의치로 수복한 증례이다.

PURPOSE. To determine the shear bond strengths of different denture base resins to different types of prefabricated teeth (acrylic, nanohybrid composite, and cross-linked) and denture teeth produced by computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Prefabricated teeth and CAD/CAM (milled) denture teeth were divided into 10 groups and bonded to different denture base materials. Groups 1-3 comprised of different types of prefabricated teeth and cold-polymerized denture base resin; groups 4-6 comprised of different types of prefabricated teeth and heat-polymerized denture base resin; groups 7-9 comprised of different types of prefabricated teeth and CAD/CAM (milled) denture base resin; and group 10 comprised of milled denture teeth produced by CAD/CAM technology and CAD/CAM (milled) denture base resin. A universal testing machine was used to evaluate the shear bond strength for all specimens. One-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc test were used for analyzing the data (α=.05). RESULTS. The shear bond strengths of different groups ranged from 3.37 ± 2.14 MPa to 18.10 ± 2.68 MPa. Statistical analysis showed significant differences among the tested groups (P<.0001). Among different polymerization methods, the lowest values were determined in cold-polymerized resin.There was no significant difference between the shear bond strength values of heat-polymerized and CAD/CAM (milled) denture base resins. CONCLUSION. Different combinations of materials for removable denture base and denture teeth can affect their bond strength. Cold-polymerized resin should be avoided for attaching prefabricated teeth to a denture base. CAD/CAM (milled) and heat-polymerized denture base resins bonded to different types of prefabricated teeth show similar shear bond strength values.

PURPOSE. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of sociodemographic factors on quality of satisfaction towards denture treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS. One hundred subjects (filling inclusion criteria) who were wearing a denture for at least two months were enrolled and divided into five groups on the basis of sociodemographic variables (age, gender, literacy level, socio-economic and marital status). Questionnaires consisting of 38 questions (positive and negative attitude towards denture satisfaction) related to patients' perception of clinical outcome in different domains such as mastication, appearance, speech, comfort, health, denture care and social status were scored by the subjects. Questions reflecting positive attitude were scored as 2, 1, or 0 (yes, uncertain and no, respectively) and reversely for the negative questions. Statistical analysis was done by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (${\alpha}$= .05). RESULTS. Level of denture satisfaction was higher in age subgroup belonging to 45 - 65 years of age in relation to comfort, health and denture care. Female and male showed significant priority for denture treatment because of esthetic and function respectively. Level of satisfaction was statistically significant with literacy level. Upper high income group showed significantly higher level of satisfaction only in case of social status. Married group showed significantly higher satisfaction level only with comfort. CONCLUSION. Patients' sociodemographic variables were influential factors on denture satisfaction.

The author conducted an clinical study of closed mouth impression technique with a case of complete denture patient of favorable ridge contour to see the effect on the lingual border molding of lower denture. As a result, the shape of the border was formulated a quite different contour from the open mouth impression technique. The obtained contour had to be reshaped considerably. It was found that functional harmony with the surrounding tissue was difficult to be maintained. However, the contour is surely stable and favorable form for the retention of the lower denture provided patient is possible to adapt.
