In this study, We tried to find out the fracture strength of zirconia coping all ceramic crown and collarless porcelain fused gold alloy crown as the compared group. Each of the collarless porcelain fused gold crown and zirconia all ceramic crown has been produced specimen 10 each. And after pasting them on the steel jig, it had load given at porcelain incisal edge by 130$^{\circ}$ and measured fracture strength by Universal Testing Machine and then We have results from that. 1. The average value of fracture strength suggested 950.49 N at collarless porcelain fused gold alloy crown, 656.81 N at zirconia coping all ceramic crown. 2. Fractured pattern showed that the whole of labial part was exposed in collarless porcelain fused gold crown, but porcelain of margin part did not show fracture in advance. In the practice, the concern that collarless might cause fracture strength to be weaken does not matter, we concluded zirconia all ceramic crown made fracture that only a part of labial porcelain was fractured. The combination of zirconia all ceramic crown and turned out to be excellent.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of dental restorations on the periodontal and periapical tissues. The author examined 620 cases of amalgam, 390 cases of gold inlay, 422 cases of crown and 644 cases of bridge through the standard intraoral films being appended in the charts that had been kept at the Dept. of Oral Diagnosis in Seoul National University Hospital. This study obtained the following results; 1. The restorations of amalgam, gold inlay crown and bridge were found more frequently in female than in male. 2. The restorations of amalgam, gold inlay and crown were found more numerously in mandibular teeth than in maxillary teeth in both sexes. But in the case of crown, the fact is quite the reverse especially in anterior teeth. 3. On the contrary, in the case of bridge, the restorations of bridge were much more distributed in the maxillary teeth than in the mandibular teeth. 4. Roentgenographic changes of periodontal tissues whose teeth were treated with any type of four restorations were periodontal space widening, lamina dura discontinuity and periapical lesion in the order described in both sexes. 5. On the occasion of between amalgam and gold inlay or between crown and bridge, the differences of periodontal changes were of no consequence. On the other hand, the differences of periodontal changes were apparant between the group of amalgam & gold inlay and the group of crown & bridge.

Foreign body aspiration (FBA) into the tracheobronchial tree could be life threatening requiringprompt intervention. Any objects placed in the oral cavity put patients at a risk of aspirating or swallowing the objects slipped or broken by physical injuries. Here, we report a case of 30 yr old patient with FBA during gold crown replacement was successfully treated with the use of the flexible bronchoscope. Case: A 30 yr old woman was admitted to Seoul National Dental Hospitalfor an amalgam restoration. She was scheduled to gold crown restoration for replacement of the damaged amalgam at #37 site. After performing crown lengthening procedure, the aspiration of gold crown occurred during the cementation of the crown. After aspiration, the patients complained of the subjective distress of respiration. Chest radiograph revealed that gold crown was enlodged to the left bronchus. Flexible fiberoptics was inserted to the bronchus to remove the aspirated crown. Fiberoptic assisted removal of the aspiratedcrown was successfully performed. After removal, there was no radiopaque material in the left bronchus on follow-up chest radiograph. Discussion: When aspiration of dental materials occurs, flexible fiberoptic can be used in the treatment of FBA. It is also very useful to take preventive management such as rubber dam, application of dental floss in dental procedure where there is high likelihood of FBA.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the production environment of crown prosthesis for National Health Insurance(NHI) benefit. Methods: This study carried out self-administered questionnaire survey from September 1, 2016 to October 31 by having research subjects as 261 dental technician. Except 100 copies with incomplete response, 161 copies were used as the materials of final analysis. Results: Unlike gold crowns, the material cost of metal crowns was paid at the dental laboratory(86.3%). Total material consumption for making metal crown was more than gold crown(63.4%), especially for the finishing and polishing processes(78.3%). The subjects responded that a routine dental laboratory fee of crown prosthesis is unreasonable, and it is necessary to adjust and improve it(metal crown 96.2%, gold crown 96.9%). NHI coverage dental prosthesis was not marked on the order form(46.0%), and the dental laboratory fee of that was nor received(64.0%). Conclusion : It is necessary to estimate the NHI cost level of the crown prosthesis by reflecting the production environment and engineering process in dental laboratories. In addition, institutional arrangement should be backed up so that dental laboratories can receive appropriate dental laboratory fee.

This study was aimed to verify a comparison by dental alloys upon the marginal fitness of dental prosthesis. Firstly, we waxed up on 45 epoxy resin dies, pressed the margin with hands, and identified the marginal fitness with microscope. And we made a single direct spruing system type of sprue by 3 dental alloys - metal crown alloys, PFM crown alloys, and gold crown alloys - each 15, total 45 waxing up, adjusting W/P ratio and invested the cast ring. Then, we made the dental prosthesis using the electric casting machine. In these processes we followed the manufacturer's instructions, in order to maintain the other conditions from the inner and outer, which included investment and burning out. After we tried on the dental prosthesis on epoxy resin dies, we have got the means of marginal gap at 9 points with same distances, around the cervical line which was checked already, using microscope($\times$300). The results of this study were as follows : 1. Metal crown alloys showed 2.9% better in marginal fitness than PFM crown alloys, and the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.497). 2. Gold crown alloys showed 31.3% better in marginal fitness than Metal crown alloys, and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.004). 3. Gold crown alloys showed 32.4% better in marginal fitness than PFM crown alloys, and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.002). 4. We saw that Gold crown alloys was the best dental alloys in the marginal fitness among the three.(P=0.049).

Histochemical observations on the effect of gold alloys crown margin in the periodontal membrane were caried out by use of rabbits. The animal were setted with gold alloys crown on the incisor teeth. The cervical margins were given extence into gingival sockets. The animals were sacrificed at the 30 days experimented period. Specimens of tissue were obtained from the mandibular incisor teeth with jaw. All tissues were fixed immediately in 10% neutral formalin solution. Different histochemical staining methods for the determination of fibrous components were the Mallory-Heidenhain Bielschowsky-Gomori, Gomori's aldehyde fuchsin. Periodic acid-Schiff reaction and Hematoxylin eosin stanin method. The results were as follows. The periodontal membrane is composed primarily of collagenous fibers and fibrous component run functional arrangement but in lower gold content groups, horizontal fiber groups were irregularly run. Elastic fibers were obligue run in experimental groups. There were no significant differences in reticularfibers in distribution.

This study was to analyze the stress distribution of implant and supporting tissue in $Br{\aa}nemark$ osseointegration implant. The analysis has been conducted by using the axisymmetric finite element method and type of model according to crown material. Tests have been performed at 1 kg load on central fossa of crown portion. Each type of model was designed differently according to crown material. 1) Porcelain fused to metal crown(Model A) 2) Composite resin veneered crown(Model B) 3) Acrylic resin veneered crown(Model C) 4) Type III gold crown(Model D) The displacements and stresses of implant and supporting structures were analyzed to investigate the influence of the type of crown material. The results were obtained as follows : 1. Displacement of implant was shown uniformly downward displacement in all models and abutments were observed distally downward displacement. 2. In supporting tissues, stress was concentrated on the crest of compact bone and the spongy bone below implant. 3. The PFM and the type III gold crown showed the largest concentration of stress at the crest of compact bone and the spongy bone below implant, respectively. Acrylic resin artificial teeth and composite resin veneered crown indicated almost the same distribution of stress. 4. The gold screw, the abutment screw and the top of abutment showed the concentration of stress in implants of every model.
