PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of the splinted implant prosthesis in a reconstructed mandible using three-dimensional finite element analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Three-dimensional finite element models were generated from a patient's computed tomography data. The patient had undergone partial resection of the mandible that covered the area from the left canine to the right condyle. The mandible was reconstructed using a fibula bone graft and dental implants. The left mandibular premolars and molars remained intact. Three types of models were created. The implant-supported prosthesis was splinted and segmented into two or three pieces. Each of these models was further subcategorized into two situations to compare the stress distribution around normal teeth and implants. Oblique loading of 300 N was applied on both sides of the mandible unilaterally. The maximum von Mises stress and displacement of the models were analyzed. RESULTS. The stress distribution of the natural mandible was more uniform than that of the reconstructed fibula. When the loading was applied to the implant prosthesis of reconstructed fibula, stress was concentrated at the cortical bone around the neck of the implants. The three-piece prosthesis model showed less uniform stress distribution compared to the others. Displacement of the components was positively correlated with the distance from areas of muscle attachment. The three-piece prosthesis model showed the greatest displacement. CONCLUSION. The splinted implant prosthesis showed a more favorable stress distribution and less displacement than the separated models in the reconstructed mandible.

The critical factors affecting the esthetics of anterior implants can be summarized as following: 1) Correct positioning of implant fixture, 2) Enough amount of alveolar bone, 3) Optimum volume of soft tissue. The position of implant is probably the most important factor in obtaining esthetic treatment outcome. The 3-dimensional orientation of implant is determined by the position on the alveolar ridge and its direction. Clinicians often try to mimic natural teeth when fabricating restorations. During the course of esthetic diagnosis and treatment, however, one should not forget to consider the correlation between facial pattern, lips, gingiva, alveolar ridge, as well as remaining dentition. Since anterior region is biologically unfavorable when compared with posterior region, one minor discrepancy in positioning of implant can cause esthetically undesirable treatment outcome. If one understands the biological and prosthetic meaning of implant' s 3-dimensional position, he or she can achieve superior esthetic outcome in anterior region.
In the manufacture of ceramo-metal crown, difference of fracture strength according to the metal depth has been known to be an important influence on enough intensity and internal stress to endure an occlusion-pressure as well as aesthetics of rehabilitating similar colour such as natural teeth. Depth of ceramic material could be determined by that of metal in three groups: first case of thin depth, second case of thick depth, and third case of constant depth. For the enhancement of the fracture strength between metal and ceramic materials and aesthetic satisfaction, a study on the bonding force, fracture strength, and aesthetics have been required more. In this study, therefore metal coping were made in three groups of A, B and C by using both ceramic powder of Norithe and metal of Columbium, which have been used primarily in the market. A group was made in $0.2mm\times10mm\times10mm$, B group was made in $0.4mm\times10mm\times10mm$, and, C group was made in $0.8mm\times10mm\times10mm$, respectively. The number of metal coping in each group was 10, and total sample numbers used in this study were 30 metal copings. After these metal coping tissue were in the process of build-up in 1.5mm constant depth of porcelain, firing, and glazing, the fracture strength about each metal coping tissue was investigated using oil press. It was found that the average values of durable occlusion pressure for separation of ceramic material in the porcelain fused to metal crown (PFM) in the each group showed the increasing order of A group (30 bar), B group (42 bar), and C group (44 bar), respectively. Proper depth of metal coping in the PFM was considered to be 0.4mm in the B group because this metal size showed higher durable property to the occlusion pressure and better coupling strength in the ceramo-metal crown.

This study was conducted to provide basic data for improvement of oral health of workers, by investigating oral health behaviors of industrial workers. About sixty percent(60.9%) of subjects experienced in having dental examinations and 54.3% of them didn't receive follow-up treatments after the dental examinations. Also, those who brushed teeth twice per week(58.6%) and averagely, earned 2~3 million won of monthly income(p<.01), showed a higher frequency of tooth brushing. Experienced workers(p<.01) were more interested in oral health. Those who were engaged in other jobs and had less than 10~20 years of experience(p<.05), had lots of experience in staying away from work. More aged group recognized that oral health education is necessary(p<.05). The population of oral examination and health instruction may have a favorable impact on maintenance of oral health status and improvement in quality of life.
Periotest(Siemens, Germany) has been used to test mobility of the implants clinically, however the effects of target materials and connection methods on the PTVs(Periotest Values) have not been evaluated. Periotest has been regarded as a reliable and objective tool to test implant and natural teeth mobility clinically, however this instrument showed different PTVs under various test conditions. This in vitro study was designed to compare PTVs of different veneering materials and prosthodontic designs (single and bridge restorations). To compare the effects of veneering materials on PTVs, 1 mm thickness of five different testing materials (porcelain, type III gold alloy, pure titanium, composite resin, acrylic resin) were placed on the resin block. Three full length of 13 mm Mark II implant fixtures were embedded into autopolymerizing resin block to fabricate single and bridge restorations. To evaluate effects of the connection method in single restorations, PTVs of screw retained(UCLA type) and cementation type(Cera-One system) were compared. Finally, to test reliability of PTVs of the final restorations, screw retained three unit short span PFM bridges were fabricated on the standard and Estheti-Cone abutments. All testing components were tightened with torque controller and PTVs of all specimens were measured 15 times for statistical analysis with SAS program. Following conclusions were made within the limit of this in vitro study. 1. PTVs of type III gold alloy, grade II titanium, composite resin veneering materials showed no significant differences, however acrylic resin and porcelain showed significant differences (P<0.05). 2. Single tooth restorations showed consistent PTVs as long as proper torque force was applied. 3. PTVs of bridge type prostheses was inconsistent regardless of abutment types. 4. PTVs of the prostheses showed higher scores and standard deviations than those of abutments regardless types of connection (P<0.05).

Growing of number of elderly populations, which may be caused by improved quality of life and decreased the percentage of mortality. Although there is a declining rate of the edentulous patients, more patients are advancing into older age groups, and the substantial number of edentulous patients are increasing. For these edentulous patients, complete denture cannot substitute natural teeth, but it is a staple prosthetic treatment. Generally, the success of dentures has been evaluated on the basis of whether or not patients comfortable and were able to masticate with their dentures. Acceptance of complete denture is complex for patients and related to psychological factors of patients, physical state, and the technical quality of dentures. In addition to that, many factors influence to satisfaction of patients to the complete dentures. In this review article, evaluate various factors related on satisfaction of denture wearers and methods of evaluate satisfaction.
If the bond strength is sufficient to resist orthodontic force, orthodontic brackets can be bonded to restorations. Orthodontic brackets were bonded to composite resin and glass ionomer cement restorations with no-mix adhesive or glass ionomer cement. The shear bond strength of adhesives bonded to restorations was studied in vitro. Orthodontic brackets were bonded to 10 extracted natural teeth, 40 composite resin restorations and 40 glass ionomer restorations. The surfaces of composite resin restorations were roughened or applied with bonding agent (Scothbond) after surface roughening. The surfaces of glass ionomer cement restorations were conditioned with acid etching or applied with Scotchbond to etched surface. The adhesive was no-mix resin or glass ionomer cement. The shear bond strength was measured. The results were as follows: 1. Orthodontic brackets could be bonded to composite resin restorations effectively as they could be bonded to acid etched enamel with no-mix adhesive. The shear bond strength was sufficient to resist orthodontic force and was not affected by bonding agent greatly. 2. The shear bond strength of no-mix adhesive bonded to acid etched glass ionomer cement restorations was sufficient to resist orthodontic force. However. the fracture risk of glass ionomer cement restorations was increased during debonding. The bonding agent couldn't increase the shear bond strength greatly. 3. The shear bond strength of glass ionomer cement bonded to glass ionomer cement restorations was lower than that of no-mix adhesive. The shear bond strength was sufficient to resist orthodontic force and was greatly decreased by bonding agent. 4. The shear bond strength of glass ionomer cement bonded to composite resin restorations was too low to resist orthodontic force.

The anatomic structure around interproximal area plays an important role not only in the natural teeth, but also in the implant. The loss of papilla can lead to cosmetic deformity, phonetic problem, food impaction on the anterior dentition, and masticatory problem, food impaction and proximal caries on the posterior dentition. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between interdental papilla existence and distance from contact point to alveolar crest in Korean posteior dentition. 45 Korean adult patients(31males, 14 females) participated in this study. Measurements were carreid out total 126 interproximal areas, 18 first premolar, 31 second premolar, 40 first molar, and 37 second molar areas. Papilla index was recorded as suggested by Jemt. Distance between contact point and alveolar crest measrued by Florida $probe^{R}$, after flap elevation. Each distance was measured 10 times by every 0.1mm unit. The results showed that the mean Papilla index 1.37 and mean distance between contact point and alveolar crest was 7.44mm. The correlation between the Papilla index and distance was high negative correlation(Pearson correlation=-0.47), and it was statistically significant(P=0.000) When the distance between contact point and alveolar crest was 5mm, the loss of papilla was appeared almost in half cases. When the distance was 6mm, the papilla loss was present 95%, when 7mm, the papilla loss was 100%.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the housewives's recognition and practice on prevention of environmental pollution. The subjects of this study were 250 housewives, school students' mothers, living in Cheong-ju. Major findings were as follows: 1. In washing their faces and brushing their teeth, they saved the water very well, but in taking bath, washing the dished, using the water of the lavatory they did not save the water so well. 2. The kinds of the cleansers differed in taking a bath, washing the hair, and doing the laundry respectively : what they use most was hard soaps in taking bath, liquid cleansers mixed with shampoo and linse in washing the hair, and synthetic powder detergent in laundrying. They used more synthetic detergent than natural soaps, which is known to be a cause of water pollution. Especially, when they cleansed, they did not use a measuring cup. It resulted in the waste of detergent and accelerating of water pollution. Therefore, the environmental education for them was very urgently needed. 3. In handling domestic waste, the separate collection rate of empty bottles and old newspapers was very high, but that of used phone-call cards and used batteries was extremely low. It was truly nessesary to educate and step up publicic activities on the separate collection of phone-call cards and batteries caused environmental pollution. 4. The housewives had much knowledge about environmental pollution, but they did not practice it so well in their home. 5. The housewives made more effort than their children in preventing environmental pollution and saving resources. In conclusion, what is most important for solving environmental problem was for each citizen to make an effort to prevent environmental pollution, and the government's support and producing the atmosphere of the society for this was really needed.

Objectives: This study was aimed to examine the patients' perception and satisfaction with the results of endodontic microsurgery which was apicoectomy with retrofilling. Materials and Methods: A questionnaire was given to 109 patients, who were recalled after a minimum of 3 months upon endodontic microsurgery in the Department of Conservative Dentistry, Yonsei University. A contingency table and correlation analysis were used to determine if there were any correlations between age/gender and the patients' responses (p = 0.05). Results: Approximately 60% of respondents answered they had never heard of surgical endodontic procedures. 63.3% of respondents chose the surgical option because they wanted to keep their natural teeth. If the patient required the same procedure on another tooth later, 100 out of 109 respondents answered they would choose microsurgery instead of extraction. Most patients (82.57%) appeared to be satisfied with the surgical procedure. Conclusions: Endodontic microsurgery consisting of apicoectomy and retrofilling seems to appeal to majority of patients as a satisfactory and valuable treatment choice.
