| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to clarify the three-dimensional bone structure around the implant in vivo and to develop a new biomechanical analyzing system. The authors carried out this study as flows. Three hydroxyapatite-coated dental implants ( "Implant" ) were inserted into the mandibular edentulous areas of 3 female adult monkeys where P_2M_1, M_1P_2, P_1P_2 were removed 3 months before insertion. After 3 months, the monkeys were sacrificed and the mandibles were removed. Tissue block containing the implant was enbedded in polyester resin. This block was ground every 75 mu m serially in buccolingual direction by a grinding machine. Each serial surface of the block was put on the profile projector and the structure of the bone around the implant was traced. These digitized data were calculated with a personal computer. A three-dimensional structure of bone around the implant was completed by computer graphics. The bone structure was analyzed quantitatively, as bone contact ratio (BCR) and bone volume ratio (BVR) in each region of 0-75, 75-150, 150-225, 225-300 mu m from implant surface. Simulated images of bone structure were also produced by laying bony area of each region from implant surface. BCR around the whole implant surfaces were 80.9, 68.1, 68.8%, and BVR were 60-70% in all regions. Simulated images revealed three-dimensional bone structure. These results provide more detailed informations on bone-implant interface and a possibility to develop new biomechanical analyzing system.
