Abstract

The purpose of this study was to observe and analyze the initial marginal bone resorption changes according to the patterns of cover screw exposures during healing period followed by implants installation. Total 64 fixtures(TiUniteTM, NobelBiocare, Sweden) were installed in partially edentulous jaws of 28 patients, who were selected retrospectively and were shown at least one cover screw exposure. Cover screw exposures were defined at 1 month recall. According to the patterns of exposures, groups were categorized into group 1 (No exposure), group 2 (pin-point exposure), group 3 (less than 1/2 of cover screw), group 4 (more than 1/2 of cover screw), group 5 (total exposure). Periapical radiographs were taken in purpose of changes of marginal bone level between installation and 2 month recall. Healing abutments were secured on the exposure groups at 2 month recall. Results were as follows: 1. Marginal bone resorptions were identified whenever cover screws were exposed. 2. Group 2 and 3 were shown significantly increased bone loss more than other group (P <.05). 3. Group 4 and 5 were shown significantly increased bone loss more than group 1, however, less than other groups ( P <.05). Conclusionally, cover screw exposure may cause marginal bone resorptions, therefore, early connection of healing abutment is clinically helpful.

2단계 임플란트 수술법에 있어서 식립 후 골유착을 위한 치유과정 중 발생할 수 있는 덮개나사의 노출의 양상에 따른 조기 변연골 흡수 정도를 관찰하고자 하였다. 덮개나사의 노출을 보인 경우에서 선정 기준에 맞는 환자를 선택해 모집단으로 하여, 28명의 환자에서 덮개나사의 노출이 확인된 28개의 임플란트를 실험군으로 하고 노출되지 않은 나머지를 대조군으로 하였다. 총 64개의 임플란트 고정체($TiUnite^{TM}$, NobelBiocare, Sweden)가 식립되었으며 임플란트 식립 1개월 후 정기검사를 통해 덮개나사의 노출을 확인하였다. 노출의 정도에 따라 1군(대조군, 노출 없음), 2군(pin-point 노출), 3군(1/2이하의 노출), 4군(1/2 이상 노출), 5군(완전 노출)으로 하였고 2개월 정기 검진 시 치유지대주를 연결하였다. 식립 직후, 2개월 정기 검진시 치근단 방사선 촬영을 통해 변연골 흡수 변화량을 측정하고 비교하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. 1. 덮개나사의 노출시 변연골 흡수가 관찰되었다. 2. 2군과 3군은 나머지 군에 비해 변연골 흡수 변화량이 유의하게 증가하였다(P <.05). 3. 4군과 5군은 1군에 비해 변연골 흡수 변화량이 유의하게 증가하였으나(P <.05), 그 정도는 2군과 3군에 비해 작았다(P <.05). 이상의 결과에서 임플란트 식립 후 치유과정 중 발생하는 덮개나사의 노출은 조기 변연골 흡수에 기여하므로 주기적인 검진을 통해 치유지대주를 연결하는 것이 임상적으로 적절하리라 사료된다.
