Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of implant tilting and the loading direction on the displacement and micromotion (relative displacement between the implant and bone) of immediately loaded implants by in vitro experiments and finite element analysis (FEA). Methods: Six artificial bone blocks were prepared. Six screw-type implants with a length of 10 mm and diameter of 4.3 mm were placed, with 3 positioned axially and 3 tilted. The tilted implants were $30^{\circ}$ distally inclined to the axial implants. Vertical and mesiodistal oblique ($45^{\circ}$ angle) loads of 200 N were applied to the top of the abutment, and the abutment displacement was recorded. Nonlinear finite element models simulating the in vitro experiment were constructed, and the abutment displacement and micromotion were calculated. The data on the abutment displacement from in vitro experiments and FEA were compared, and the validity of the finite element model was evaluated. Results: The abutment displacement was greater under oblique loading than under axial loading and greater for the tilted implants than for the axial implants. The in vitro and FEA results showed satisfactory consistency. The maximum micromotion was 2.8- to 4.1-fold higher under oblique loading than under vertical loading. The maximum micromotion values in the axial and tilted implants were very close under vertical loading. However, in the tilted implant model, the maximum micromotion was 38.7% less than in the axial implant model under oblique loading. The relationship between abutment displacement and micromotion varied according to the loading direction (vertical or oblique) as well as the implant insertion angle (axial or tilted). Conclusions: Tilted implants may have a lower maximum extent of micromotion than axial implants under mesiodistal oblique loading. The maximum micromotion values were strongly influenced by the loading direction. The maximum micromotion values did not reflect the abutment displacement values.

Purpose: The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the cumulative success rate, the implant survival rate, and the occurrence of biological complications in implants supporting full-arch immediately loaded rehabilitations supported by upright and tilted implants. Methods: The clinical records and periapical radiographs of patients who attended follow-up visits were collected, and information was recorded regarding marginal bone loss resorption, the occurrence of peri-implant infectious diseases, and the implant survival rate. Implants were classified as successful or not successful according to two distinct classifications for implant success. Results: A total of 53 maxillary and mandibular restorations including 212 implants were analysed, of which 56 implants were studied over the full five-year follow-up period. After five years, the cumulative success rate was 76.04% according to the Misch classification and 56.34% according to the Albrektsson classification. The cumulative implant survival rate was 100%, although one implant was found to be affected by peri-implantitis at the second follow-up visit. Conclusions: The cumulative success rate of the implants dropped over time, corresponding to the progression of marginal bone resorption. The prevalence of peri-implantitis was very low, and the implant survival rate was not found to be related to the cumulative success rate.

방사선치료를 받은 상악에 임플란트 지지 고정성 보철물을 이용하여 수복하는 것은 골치유능력이 낮기 때문에 상세한 치료계획이 필요하다. All-on-4 개념에 의한 임플란트 식립은 골이식을 피하면서 임플란트를 매식할 수 있어 유리하다. 일반적으로 경사된 임플란트에는 기성 경사형 지대주를 사용해왔다. 본 임상증례에서는 computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM)으로 제작된 지대주를 사용하였다. 본 증례는 all-on-4 개념에 의해 임플란트를 매식하고 CAD/CAM titanium 지대주를 제작한 다음 CAD/CAM zirconia 고정성 보철물로 수복하여 좋은 결과를 얻었기에 보고하고자 한다.

Purpose: The purpose of this case study series was to introduce successful implant cases that used the palatal bone in patients with severe maxillary alveolar bone atrophy or defects. Case Presentation: In this case series study, a total of four patients underwent implant placement in the palatal bone of the maxilla. A total of 6 implants were installed using the palatine bone. The patients' ages ranged from 40 to 73 years with an average age of 63.5 years. The patients had maxillary sinus-related diseases, such as maxillary sinusitis, oroantral fistula, and dentigerous cysts, prior to implantation. To achieve initial stability, the implants were placed on the palatal side, and buccally tilted. The average postoperative recovery period was 8 months. No postoperative complications occurred in any of the cases, and the approach was used without reported issues. Conclusion: Implant treatment by securing the initial fixation in the palatal bone is a good alternative when an implant must be installed in a patient who requires extensive and invasive bone graft.

최근 치과치료의 영역에서 디지털 임플란트 시스템은 그 영역을 넓혀 나가고 있다. 디지털 장비들의 기술적 발전에 힘입어 한계점들이 하나 둘씩 극복되었다. 초기 단일치아 수복 정도에나 사용되었던 디지털 임플란트 시스템은 임플란트 수술에서부터 보철물 제작까지 무치악의 영역에서도 사용되고 있다. 본 증례에서는 50세의 하악 무치악 환자가 임플란트를 이용한 교합 재건을 원하였다. 하악의 임플란트 수복을 위해서 "All-on-4" 개념의 디지털 임플란트 시스템 사용을 계획하였고, 무절개 수술을 위한 가이드 장치를 제작하여 수술을 시행하였다. 수술 후, 전악 보철을 디지털 장비를 이용하여 제작하였다. 전체 치료 과정에서 기존의 아날로그 방식(인상채득, 납형 제작, 주조 등)을 가능한 배제하고 디지털 시스템을 이용하여 기공과정 및 임상과정을 최소화하기로 계획하였고 만족할만한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.

Objectives: This review assessed the performance of implant-supported fixed hybrid prostheses in 21 patients who received a total of 137 implants between 2003 and 2010. The implants were evaluated for marginal bone resorption, complications, success rate, and survival rate based on their vertical angularity, type of bone graft, and measured implant stability. Materials and Methods: One-way ANOVA and chi-square tests were used to analyze the relationships among long-term evaluation factors and these variables. The mean initial bone resorption in the implant group with a vertical angle of more than 20° was 0.33 mm and mean final bone resorption was 0.76 mm. In contrast, the mean initial bone resorption in the implant group with a vertical angle of less than 10° was 1.19 mm and mean final bone resorption was 2.17 mm. Results: The results showed that mean bone resorption decreased with an increase in the vertical placement angle of the implants used in fixed hybrid prostheses, as well as in the group without additional bone grafts and those with high implant stability. The success rate of implants placed after bone grafting was found to be higher than those placed simultaneously. Conclusion: These results suggest that implant-supported fixed hybrid prostheses may be an effective treatment option for edentulous patients, and intentionally placing implants with high angularity may improve outcomes.

Dental implants are a common treatment for the loss of teeth. This paper summarizes current knowledge on implant surfaces, immediate loading versus conventional loading, short implants, sinus lifting, and custom implants using three-dimensional printing. Most of the implant surface modifications showed good osseointegration results. Regarding biomolecular coatings, which have been recently developed and studied, good results were observed in animal experiments. Immediate loading had similar clinical outcomes compared to conventional loading and can be used as a successful treatment because it has the advantage of reducing treatment times and providing early function and aesthetics. Short implants showed similar clinical outcomes compared to standard implants. A variety of sinus augmentation techniques, grafting materials, and alternative techniques, such as tilted implants, zygomatic implants, and short implants, can be used. With the development of new technologies in three-dimension and computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) customized implants can be used as an alternative to conventional implant designs. However, there are limitations due to the lack of long-term studies or clinical studies. A long-term clinical trial and a more predictive study are needed.

연구목적: 캔틸레버의 위치와 길이는 임플란트와 보철물 또한 주위 골조직의 응력분포에 중요한 영향을 미친다. 하악 무치악의 경우 기존에는 양측 이공사이에 4-6개의 임플란트를 식립하고 상부보철물을 캔틸레버형으로 제작해왔는데 캔틸레버 부위에 무리한 하중이 작용하게 되면 응력의 집중과 굽힘 현상으로 인하여 최후방 임플란트 부위의 지지골 파괴와 임플란트 및 상부 보철물의 파절을 초래했다. 이러한 캔틸레버의 약점을 보완하기 위해 1992년 McCartney가 Rest implant 개념을 2003년에는 $Mal{\acute{o}}$ 등이 All-on-Four implant 개념을 소개하여 기존 보철물의 캔틸레버 길이를 줄이려고 노력하였다. 재료 및 방법: 기존의 캔틸레버형 보철물과 rest implant, All-on-Four implant 시스템을 삼차원 모델링하여 하중을 제 1대구치 부위에 수직으로 300 N, 수평으로 설측에서 협측으로 75 N을 가하여 지지골과 임플란트, 상부보철물에 발생하는 응력의 크기와 분포 및 분산양상을 유한요소 해석 프로그램인 ANSYS (Ver. 10.0, Swanson Analysis System Inc., USA)를 이용하여 분석하였다. 결과: 1. 레스트 임플란트 및 All-on-Four 임플란트법은 기존 방법에 비해 하악골과 상부 보철물의 응력 분산에 크게 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 2. 지지골, 임플란트, 상부 보철물에서의 응력분산은 레스트 임플란트가 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 3. 같은 개수의 임플란트인 경우 후방 임플란트를 경사시켜 캔틸레버의 양을 줄이는 것이 기존 방식에 비해 저작압 분산에 유리하다.

무치악 환자의 보철치료에서 총의치를 이용한 보철 치료 시 각화 점막을 통해 교합력을 분담하므로 저작력과 저작 능률이 떨어지고 특히 지지 점막 면적이 작은 하악의 경우 상악에 비해 통증 발생 등의 부작용이 더 많다. 치조골 흡수가 많은 환자일수록 이는 더 심화되나 하악 구치부 측의 하치조신경관의 존재 때문에 임플란트를 동반한 적극적 치료가 어려운 경우가 많다. 이에 본 증례에서는 상악에는 전통적인 총의치를 제작하고 하악은 치조골 높이가 충분한 전방부에만 임플란트를 식립하여 all-on-4 방법으로 치료한 환자에서 좋은 경과를 보여 보고하고자 한다.

Purpose: These case reports show the orthodontic treatment of lower anterior incisors with gingival recession. Materials and Methods: Three cases were treated by an orthodontist and a periodontist. Each case had lingually tilted lower anterior incisors, anterior crossbite and skeletal Cl III pattern. Results: A variety of etiological factors were thought to cause gingival recession: aging, oral hygiene, tooth malpositioning, occlusal trauma. Conclusion: Due to the interaction among many possible contributing factors, it is difficult to predict whether further gingival recession may occur at a given site. The position and the movement of the lower anterior incisors with gingival recession are important factors in diagnosis and orthodontic treatment planning.
