Statement of problem: Damping of the peak force transmitted to implants has been reported by in vitro studies using impact forces on resin-veneered superstructures. Theoretical assumptions suggest that use of acrylic resin for the occlusal surfaces of a prosthesis would protect the connection between implant and bone. Therefore, the relationship between prosthesis materials and the force transmitted through the implant system also needs to be investigated under conditions that resemble the intraoral mechanical environment. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the fracture strength and modes of temporary prosthesis when a flange or occlusally extended structure were connected on the top of the abutment. Material and method: Modified abutments of winged and bulk design were made by casting the desired wax pattern which is made on the UCLA type plastic cylinder. Temporary crowns were made using templates on the modified abutments, and its fracture toughness and strain were compared to the traditional temporary prosthesis. To evaluate the effect of aging, 5.000 times of thermocycling were performed, and their result was compared to the 24hours specimen result. Results: The following conclusions were drawn from this study: 1. In the fracture toughness test, temporary crown's fracture line located next to the screw hole while modified designs with metal support showed fracture line on the metal and its propagation along the metal-resin interface. 2. Wing and bulk structure didn't show significant difference in the fracture toughness (p>0.05), but wing structure showed stress concentration on the screw hole area compared to bulk structure which showed even stress distribution. 3. In the fracture toughness test after thermocycling, wing and bulk structure showed increased or similar results in metal supported area while off-metal area and temporary crown showed decreased results. 4. In the strain measurement after thermocycling, its value increased in the temporary and bulk structure. However, wing structure showed decreased value in the loading point while increased value in the screw hole area. Conclusion: Wing type design showed compatible result to the bulk type that its application with composite resin prosthesis to the implant dentistry is considered promising.

Objective : To analyze the effects of the number and shape of fenestrations on the mechanical strength of pedicle screws and the effects of bone cement augmentation (BCA) on the pull-out strength (POS) of screws used in conventional BCA. Methods : For the control group, a conventional screw was defined as C1, a screw with cannulated end-holes was defined as C2, a C2 screw with six pinholes was defined as C3, and the control group type was set. Among the experimental screws, T1 was designed using symmetrically placed thru-hole type fenestrations with an elliptical shape, while T2 was designed with half-moon (HM)-shaped asymmetrical fenestrations. T3 and T4 were designed with single HM-shaped fenestrations covering three pitches and five pitches, respectively. T5 and T6 were designed with 0.6-mm and 1-mm wider fenestrations than T3. BCA was performed by injecting 3 mL of commercial bone cement in the screw, and mechanical strength and POS tests were performed according to ASTM F1717 and ASTM F543 standards. Synthetic bone (model #1522-505) made of polyurethane foam was used as a model of osteoporotic bone, and radiographic examinations were performed using computed tomography and fluoroscopy. Results : In the fatigue test, at 75% ultimate load, fractures occurred 7781 and 9189 times; at 50%, they occurred 36122 and 82067 times; and at 25%, no fractures occurred. The mean ultimate load for each screw type was 219.1±52.39 N for T1, 234.74±15.9 N for T2, 220.70±59.23 N for T3, 216.45±32.4 N for T4, 181.55±54.78 N for T5, and 216.47±29.25 N for T6. In comparison with C1, T1, T2, T3, T4, and T6 showed significantly different ultimate load values (p<0.05). However, when the values for C2 and the fenestrated screws were evaluated with an unpaired t test, the ultimate load value of C2 significantly differed only from that of T2 (p=0.025). The ultimate load value of C3 differed significantly from those of T1 and T2 (C3 vs. T1 : p=0.048; C3 vs. T2 : p<0.001). Linear correlation analysis revealed a significant correlation between the fenestration area and the volume of bone cement (Pearson's correlation coefficient r=0.288, p=0.036). The bone cement volume and ultimate load significantly correlated with each other in linear correlation analysis (r=0.403, p=0.003). Conclusion : Fenestration yielded a superior ultimate load in comparison with standard BCA using a conventional screw. In T2 screws with asymmetrical two-way fenestrations showed the maximal increase in ultimate load. The fenestrated screws can be expected to show a stable position for the formation of the cement mass.

Coracoclavicular ligament is main restraint to superior instability of the distal clavicle. Coracoacromial ligament, extensor tendon of toe, palmaris longus tendon, and Dacron tape have been used to reconstruct coracoclavicular ligament. We used semitedinosus tendon to reconstruct coracoclavicular ligament. The semitendinosus tendon was harvested as a usual fashion. After the distal clavicle and coracoid process were exposed, a hole of six millimeter diameter was made on the center of whole thickness of the distal clavicle. A malleolar screw was fixed from distal clavicle to coracoid process to maintain the reduced position of the acromioclavicular joint. The leading suture of tendon graft was passed through the hole of the distal clavicle and looped under the coracoid process. After leading portion of ten­don graft was looped over the clavicle, sutures were made between each end of the tendon graft with nonabsorbable suture materials.

Purpose This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of the location and angle of drilling on the changes of the distance between the two block specimens. Materials and methods In experimental group 1, the screw holes were prepared by drilling in the distal portion of compression part of the plate at $90^{\circ}$. In experimental group 2, the drilling was performed at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ proximal to the miniplate, and in experimental group 3, at $30^{\circ}$ distal respectively. In control group, the drilling was performed to the center of hole at $90^{\circ}$. The fixation screw length was 5 mm, 7 mm, and 9 mm in all groups. The results were as follows. Results 1. In control group, the mean changes between two specimens were 0.01 mm, 0.02 mm, and 0.00 mm in 5 mm, 7 mm, and 9 mm screws respectively. 2. In experimental group 1, the compression part was moved toward the retention part. The range of mean changes were from -0.39 mm to -0.43 mm. 3. In experimental group 2, the compression part was moved toward the retention part. The range of mean changes were from -0.51 mm to -0.56 mm. 4. In experimental group 3, the compression part was moved apart from the retention part and the range of mean changes were from 0.55 mm to 0.56 mm. 5. The changes were significantly different between all groups(p<0.01). Conclusion These results suggest that 0.4$\sim$0.5 mm of compressive effect can be achieved by drilling on the distal area of the screw hole at an angle of $90^{\circ}$ and by the proximal angulation to the miniplate, and the gap between specimens can be increased by distal angulation to the miniplate during drilling.

The linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/zeolite composite using novel inorganic filler, zeolite, is prepared by a conventional compounding procedure using a twin-screw extruder. The observed scanning electron microscopic (SEM) morphology shows a good dispersion and adhesion of zeolite in the LLDPE matrix. The mechanical properties in terms of the Young's modulus, the yield stress, the impact strength, and the elongation at break were enhanced with a successive increment of zeolite content up to 40 wt%. The X-ray diffraction measurement is of supportive for the improved mechanical properties and the complex melt viscosity is as well. Upon applying a certain level of strain on the composites, the dewetting, the air hole formation and its growth are characterized. The dewetting originates around the filler particles at low strain and induces elliptical micropores upon further stretching. The microporosity such as the aspect ratio, the number and the total area of the air holes is also characterized. Thus, the composites loaded 40 % zeolite and 300 % elongation may be applicable for breathable microporous films with improved modulus, impact and yield stress, elongation at break, microporosity and air hole properties.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fracture strength and removal torque value (RTV) of a conventional angled abutment and a newly developed angled abutment (Beauty up abutment) with an angulated screw access hole. Each abutment was divided into a control group and an experimental group (n = 20, respectively). To measure the fracture strength, the abutment was connected to the internal hex implant with 30 Ncm torque, and a load was applied at 30 degree angle with cross-head speed of 1 mm/min using a universal testing machine according to the ISO 14801:2016 standard. To measure RTV, each abutment was fastened to the implant with 30 Ncm torque. Retightening was performed after 10 minutes, and initial RTV was measured with a digital torque gauge. After retightening, a load of 250 N was applied to the abutment at a 30 degree angle using a chewing simulator. After a total of 100,000 repeated loads, RTV was measured. Statistical analysis was performed using Wilcoxon signed rank test and Mann-Whitney U test (α = .05). The fracture strength of the experimental group was statistically significantly lower than that of the control group (P = .009). There was no significant difference between initial RTV and post-loading RTV between the experimental group and the control group (P = .753, P = .527, respectively), and cyclic loading did not significantly affect RTV in both groups (P = .078).

SIMS(Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry)는 다른 표면 분석장비와 비교하여^g , pp m,^g , pp b 단위의 미량분석이 가능한 장비로서, 특히 depth Profiling을 위한 dynamic SIMS는 Mass Spectrometer의 종류에 따라 Quadrupole SIMS (Q-SIMS)와, Magnetic Sector SIMS (M-SIMS)로 분류된다. 한편, Q-SIMS와 달리 M-SIMS의 경우, Transmission을 높여 주기 위해 Sample Holder에 수 keV의 bias를 걸어 주는데, 이로 인하여 분석 원소에 대한 Sensitivity가 향상되어 지는 반면, RSF의 변화와 같은 분석상의 Artifact가 발생하게 된다. 일반적으로 Q-SIMS의 경우에는 RSF의 RSD(Relative Standard Deviation)가 1%이내에서 보고되고 있지만 M-SIMS에 있어서는 이러한 Deviation이 M-SIMS보다 크게 나타난다. 이 차이는 주로 Sample Holder와 Immersion Lens 사이에 형성되는 Magnetic Field의 왜곡과 Spectrometer의 문제로부터 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 Sample Holder의 종류 및 holder so window 위치에 따라 RSF의 차이를 측정하고 그 data를 RS/1 통계 Package를 이용하여 계량적으로 검증하였으며, 그 차이의 원인과 대책을 제시하고자 한다. 실험에 사용된 Sample은 Si(100) p-type Wafer에 Boron을 이온 주입하여 제작하였다. 이온 주입 장비는 Varian E-500HP이며, 5.0E13 ions/cm2의 dose양을 80keV의 Energy로 각각 7도와 22도의 Tilt와 Twist Angle로 이온 주입을 하였다. SIMS분석에 사용된 Sample Holder는 각각 3 Hole, 9 Hole Type HOlder이며, 분석은 Cameca IMS-6f를 사용하여 B에 대한 Matrix Peak으로 28Si++를 얻었다. 실험 결과 3 Hole Type Sample Holder의 경우 RSF의 RSD는 5.84%, 9Hle Type Sample Holder의 경우는 14.3%로 나타났으나 분석 Window의 위치에 따르는 Grouping을 실시한 결과, 3 Hole Type Sample Holder의 경우 1.2%, 9Hole Type Sample Holder의 경우 9.8%로 RSF의 변화가 감소하였다. 이러한 Deviation은 Sample Holder를 Mount시킬 때 세 개의 Screw를 이용하여 Immersion Lens와의 평형을 잡아주기 때문에 발생하며, 이 Munting을 정확히 해줌으로써 RSF의 변화를 줄일 수 있으나, 실제로 완벽한 Mounting이 불가능하기 때문에 RSF를 일정하게 하기 위해서는 Sample Holder so Window의 취치를 일정하게 설정한 후 분석을 실시해야 한다고 판단된다.

Objectives: This study sought to compare efficiency results between the use of a customized implant (CI) and a reconstruction plate (RP) in mandibular defect reconstruction in an animal model. Materials and Methods: Fifteen rabbits underwent surgery to create a defect in the right side of the mandible and were randomly divided into two groups. For reconstruction of the mandibular defect, the RP group (n=5) received five-hole mini-plates without bone grafting and the CI group (n=10) received fabricated CIs based on the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) data taken preoperatively. The CI group was further divided into two subgroups depending on the time of CBCT performance preoperatively, as follows: a six-week CI (6WCI) group (n=5) and a one-week CI (1WCI) group (n=5). Daily food intake amount (DFIA) was measured to assess the recovery rate. Radiographic images were acquired to evaluate screw quantity. CBCT and histological examination were performed in the CI subgroup after sacrifice. Results: The 1WCI group showed the highest value in peak average recovery rate and the fastest average recovery rate. In terms of reaching a 50% recovery rate, the 1WCI group required the least number of days as compared with the other groups ($2.6{\pm}1.3days$), while the RP group required the least number of days to reach an 80% recovery rate ($7.8{\pm}2.2days$). The 1WCI group showed the highest percentage of intact screws (94.3%). New bone formation was observed in the CI group during histological examination. Conclusion: Rabbits with mandibular defects treated with CI showed higher and faster recovery rates and more favorable screw status as compared with those treated with a five-hole mini-plate without bone graft.

The applicability and productivity of hydroforming process can be increased by combining pre- and post-forming processes such as the bending, piercing and embedding process. For the fabrication of automotive parts, the hollow bodies with connecting nuts are widely used to connect parts together. Hollow body with connecting nuts has been conventionally fabricated by welding nuts or screwing in autobody screws. It requires multiple steps and devices fur the welding and/or screwing Therefore in this study, hydro-embedding process that combines the hydraulic embedding of connecting element(nut) with hydroforming process is investigated. Studies on the hydro-embedding technology have been performed to optimize the shape of the connecting element by analyzing the deformed mode of the embedded tube The effects of the shape of the screw tip, screw thread and shape of thread on the connection force between the tube and the connecting element have been investigated to optimize the shape of connecting element. Finite element analysis has also been performed to provide deformation behaviors of the tube surrounding a hole produced by hydro-embedding.
