Abstract

This study is to evaluate how different bearing surface angles of abutment screw affect the mechanical stability of the joint in the conical seal design implant system. Materials and Methods: Internal connection type regular implants, two-piece cemented type abutments and tungsten carbide/carbon-coated titanium alloy abutment screws were selected. Titanium alloy screws with conical ($45^{\circ}$) and flat ($90^{\circ}$) head designs which fit on to abutment were fabricated. The abutments were tightened to implants with 30 Ncm by digital torque gauge. The loading was applied once to the central axis of abutment. The mean axial displacement was measured using micrometer before and after the tightening and loading (n = 5). The abutment was tightened to implants with 30 Ncm and T-shape stainless steel crown was cemented. Then the change in the amount of reverse-torque was measured after the repeated loading to the central axis, and the place 5 mm away from the central axis. Compressive bending and fatigue strength were measured at the place 5 mm away from the central axis (n = 5). Results: Both groups showed the largest axial displacement when abutment screw tightening and total displacement was greater in the flat head group compared to conical head group (P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in reverse torque value, compressive bending and fatigue strength (P > 0.05). Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, the abutment screw head design had no effect on two groups regarding the joint stability, however the conical head design affected the settlement of abutment resulting in the reduced total displacement.

목적: 내부 원추형 연결형태 임플란트에서 지대주 나사의 좌면각도가 연결부의 기계적 안정성에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위함이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 원추형 연결구조 티타늄 임플란트와 시멘트 유지형 지대주, 텅스텐 카바이드 코팅된 티타늄 합금 지대주 나사를 사용하였다. 좌면각도가 $45^{\circ}$와 $90^{\circ}$를 갖는 지대주와 지대주 나사를 제작하여 30 Ncm 조임회전력으로 지대주를 체결한 후 하중을 가하고 체결 및 하중 부여에 따른 침하량을 측정하였다(n = 5). 유압식 피로시험기에 임플란트를 고정하고 스테인리스 스틸 금속관을 지대주에 합착하였다. 이 후 반복 하중을 가한 후 풀림토크 변화량을 측정하고, 압축굽힘강도와 피로강도를 측정하였다(n = 5). 결과: 지대주 침하량은 지대주나사 체결 시 가장 크게 나타났으며(P < 0.05), 나사체결과 하중부여에 따른 총 침하량은 $45^{\circ}$군보다 $90^{\circ}$군에서 더 크게 측정되었다(P < 0.05). 반복하중 부여 후 풀림 토크, 그리고 최대 압축굽힘강도와 피로강도는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(P > 0.05). 결론: 본 실험조건하에서 지대주 나사머리의 원추형 설계가 지대주의 총 침하량을 약간 감소시키는 효과를 나타냈으나, 연결부의 전체적인 기계적 안정성에 미치는 영향은 크지 않을 것으로 판단된다.
