Background. Improving the implantation conditions in order to reduce the failure is always desirable for researchers. The aim of this study was to compare two different types of dental implant materials from biomechnical viewpoint in order to introduce a novel simulation method to select suitable materials for dental implants. Methods. In this research, drilling process was performed in the cortical bone of the mandible by finite element analysis simulation. Then, a 3D model of the produced hole in the drilled site was derived and a dental implant model by ITI design was inserted into the cavity. The space remaining between the implant and cavity was considered as a newly formed cortical bone area. Implant loading was performed on two dental implants with different types of material. The change in the volume of the cortical bone around each implant was considered a criterion for evaluating bone damage. Additionally, the micromotion of dental implant in the mandible after implantation was used for investigating dental implant stability. Results. After implant loading, the volume changes in newly formed cortical bone around Ti and Zr-2.5%Nb dental implants were measured at 0.010809 and 0.010996 mm3 , respectively. Furthermore, micromotion of Ti and Zr-2.5%Nb dental implants were measured at 0.00514 and 0.00538 mm, respectively. Conclusion. This study showed that Ti dental implant creates better conditions than Zr-2.5%Nb dental implant in the maxillofacial region

The Impact

A dental implant is currently the most commonly used treatment for patients with lost teeth. There is no biomechanical reference available to study the effect of different occlusion conditions on dental implants with different positions. Therefore, the aim of this study was to conduct a biomechanical analysis of the impact of four common occlusion conditions on the different positions of dental implants using the finite element method. We built a finite element model that included the entire mandible and implanted seven dental implant fixtures. We also applied external force to the position of muscles on the mandible of the superficial masseter, deep masseter, medial pterygoid, anterior temporalis, middle temporalis, and posterior temporalis to simulate the four clenching tasks, namely the incisal clench (INC), intercuspal position (ICP), right unilateral molar clench (RMOL), and right group function (RGF). The main indicators measured in this study were the reaction force on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the fixed top end of the abutment in the dental implant system, and the stress on the mandible and dental implant systems. The results of the study showed that under the occlusion conditions of RMOL, the dental implant system (113.99 MPa) and the entire mandible (46.036 MPa) experienced significantly higher stress, and the reaction force on the fixed-top end of the abutment in the dental implant system (261.09 N) were also stronger. Under the occlusion of ICP, there was a greater reaction force (365.8 N) on the temporomandibular joint. In addition, it was found that the reaction force on the posterior region (26.968 N to 261.09 N) was not necessarily greater than that on the anterior region (28.819 N to 70.431 N). This information can help clinicians and dental implant researchers understand the impact of different chewing forces on the dental implant system at different positions after the implantation.

Abstract An osseointegrated stepped screw dental implant was evaluated using 2-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA). The implant was modeled in a cross section of the posterior human mandible digitized from a computed tomography (CT) generated patient data set. A 15-mm regular platform (RP) Branemark implant with equivalent length and neck diameter was used as a control. The study was performed under a number of clinically relevant parameters: loading at the top of the transmucosal abutment in vertical, horizontal, and 45° oblique 3 orientations. Elastic moduli of the mandible varied from a normal cortical bone level (13.4 GPa) to a trabecular bone level (1.37 GPa). The study indicated that an oblique load and elastic moduli of the cortical bone are important parameters to the implant design optimization. Compared with the cylindrical screw implant, the maximum von Mises stress of the stepped screw implant model was 17.9% lower in the trabecular bone-implant area. The study also showed that the stepped screw implant is suitable for the cortical bone modulus from 10 to 13.4 GPa, which is not necessarily as strict as the Branemark implant, for which a minimum 13.4 GPa cortical bone modulus is recommended.

The objective of this research was to investigate dental bridges with and without implants. Threedimensional (3D) mandible models were reconstructed by computer tomography (CT) to simulate biting behaviors. The dental implant is an important factor in dental bridge applications. Several studies have investigated finite element models for dental implants; however, few have examined a model for dental bridge with implant. The results revealed that stress was significantly increased when dental bridge was used with implant. Moreover, the dental bridge with implant group demonstrated a relatively big stress in mandible, which was 4.01% lower compared with that of the control group. Dental bridge would be an effective means of recovering dental performance. However, the present research stated that the implant of dental bridge has a potential to increase abnormal stress, and uniformly distributing stress in the dental bridges.

Dental implants are a valuable, safe and predictable solution for patients suffering from tooth loss. The implant shape plays a great role in the success of dental implant, due to its effect on stress distribution in the surrounding bones. Therefore, optimizing some of implant shape parameters may improve stress distribution and consequently may lead to an increase in implant success rate. In this study, the 3D finite element analysis is used to investigate the influence of the number of threads in the neck of the implant on the implant-cortical bone interface stresses. The stress distribution along the implant-bone interface and their displacements were determined using ABAQUS/CAE 6.10 software. Overall, the stress was highest in the cortical bone at the neck of implant and lowest in the cancellous bone regardless of the number of threads in contact with cortical bone. On the other hand, reducing the number of threads in the neck resulted in a decrease in the developed stresses in both types of bones. The developed stresses around the bones decreased gradually in cortical bones and dramatically in cancellous bones when the number of threads decreased in the neck of implant. The stress reduction between the smooth neck to the fully threaded neck decreased the developed stresses by 24% in the cortical bone. However, due to improve the implant osseointegration, it is recommended to keep one or two threads in the cortical bone.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the location of the mandibular canal and the thickness of the occlusal cortical bone at dental implant sites in the lower second premolar and lower first molar by using dental cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Seventy-nine sites (47 second premolar and 32 first molar sites) were identified in the dental CBCT examinations of 47 patients. In this study, 4 parameters were measured: (1) MC—the distance from the mandibular canal to the upper border of the mandible; (2) CD—the distance from the mandibular canal to the buccal border of the mandible; (3) MD—the distance from the mandibular canal to the lingual border of the mandible; (4) TC—the thickness of the cortical bone at the occlusal side. A statistical analysis was employed to compare the size and differences between these 4 parameters at the lower second premolar and lower first molar. Regarding the MC and MD, the experimental results showed no statistical difference between the first molar and second premolar. However, the TC for the second premolar was greater than that of the first molar. Thus, careful consideration is necessary in choosing the size of and operation type for dental implants.

Stress And Deformation

Finite element analysis (FEA) has always been an important tool in studying the influences of stress and deformation due to various loads on implants to the surrounding jaws. This study assessed the influence of two different types of dental implant model on stress dissipation in adjoining jaws and on the implant itself by utilizing FEA. This analysis aimed to examine the effects of increasing the number of fences along the implant and to compare the resulting stress distribution and deformation with surrounding bones. When a vertical force of 100 N was applied, the largest displacements found in the three-fenced and single-fenced models were 1.7469 and 2.5267, respectively, showing a drop of 30.8623%. The maximum stress found in the three-fenced and one-fenced models was 13.518 and 22.365 MPa, respectively, showing a drop of 39.557%. Moreover, when an oblique force at 35° was applied, a significant increase in deformation and stress was observed. However, the three-fenced model still had less stress and deformation compared with the single-fenced model. The FEA results suggested that as the number of fences increases, the stress dissipation increases, whereas deformation decreases considerably.

Design Factors

Nowadays, root osseointegrated dental implants are used widely in dentistry mainly for replacement of the single missing tooth. The success rate of osseointegrated dental implants depends on different factors such as bone conditions; surgery insertion technique, loading history, and biomechanical interaction between jawbone and implant surface. In recent years, many studies have investigated design factors using finite element analysis with a concentration on major parameters such as diameter, pitch, and implant outlines in the distribution of stress in the bone-implant interface. There is still a need to understand the relationship and interaction of design factors individually with stress distribution to optimize implant structure. Therefore, the present study introduced a new dental implant and investigated the effect of design parameters on stress distribution. The finite element modeling was developed to facilitate the study with a comparison of design parameters. Boundary and loading conditions were implemented to simulate the natural situation of occlusal forces. Based on results, V-shape threads with maximum apex angle caused a high rate of micro-motion and high possibility of bone fracture. Low Von-Mises stress was associated with low bone growth stimulation. Besides, small fin threads did not integrate with cancellous bone and consequently lower stress accommodation. V-5 fin had no extraordinary performance in cancellous bone. Small surface areas of fins did not integrate with the surrounding bone and high-stress concentration occurred at the tail. These fins are recommended as threads replacement. It was concluded that the implant structure had less influence on stress distribution under horizontal loading.

Implant Loading

The life of dental implant depends on various parameters such as insertion torque, implant diameter and cortical and cancellous bones thickness. The thickness of the cortical and cancellous bones varies from patient to patient and for each thickness, the corresponding studies are required to determine the favorable implant loading. In this study, stress analysis on various dental implant fixtures inserted in compromised bony ridges is performed using three dimensional finite element analyses. Initially, the modeling and analysis of previously analyzed structure is done to validate the solution procedure. After successful validation, three dimensional linear elastic analysis of bone implant bone assembly is performed. The implant material is treated as isotropic whereas the bone materials are taken as anisotropic materials. The parametric study finds the effect of insertion torque and variation of implant diameter on stress induced in the compromised bony ridge. Further, the implant bone assembly was analyzed using various cortical bone thicknesses. It has been observed that the increase in torque results in increased stress and deformation in the bone. With increasing bone thickness, the similar variation of torque produces less stress and deformation in dental implants. The study is helpful in prediction of favorable implant loading and implants diameters for compromised bony ridges. The study provides useful knowledge in improving the performance and life of dental implants.

A newly developed reference dental implant specimen type was subjected to numerical simulations of osseointegration. The goal of these tests was to optimize the geometry of the implant so as to reduce local stress concentrations and provide a better flow of stress through the whole implant body. Conditions for osseointegration were considered when evaluating the anchoring system of the implant in regard to its placement in the human cancellous and cortical bone. Numerical simulations showed that stress concentrations occur mostly in the upper cylindrical part of the implant. By increasing the width of this cylindrical part, we were able to reduce the maximum values of von-Mises stress by 20 %.

In finite element (FE) simulations, the peak bone stresses were higher when loading with a cantilever extension (CE) than when loading without a CE by 33–49% in the cortical bone. In the in vitro experiments, the highest values of principal strain were all within the range of the minimum principal strain, and those peak bone strains were 40–58% greater when loading with a CE than when loading without a CE (p < 0.001). This study investigated how varying the implanted position and angulation of anterior implants in the All-on-Four treatment influenced the biomechanical environment in the alveolar bone around the dental implants. Ten numerical simulations of FE models and three in vitro samples of All-on-Four treatment of dental implants were created to investigate the effects of altering the implanted position and angulation type of anterior implants. A single load of 100 N was applied in the molar region in the presence or absence of a CE of the denture. The 3D FE simulations analyzed the von-Mises stresses in the surrounding cortical bone and trabecular bone. For the in vitro tests, the principal bone strains were recorded by rosette strain gauges and statistically evaluated using the Mann–Whitney U test and the Kruskal–Wallis test. Loading in the presence of a CE of the denture induced the highest bone stress and strain, which were 53–97% greater in the FE simulation and 68–140% in the in vitro experiments (p < 0.008) than when loading without a CE. The bone stresses in the FE models of various implanted positions and angulation types of anterior implants were similar to those in the model of a typical All-on-Four treatment. In vitro tests revealed that the bone strains were significantly higher in the samples with various angulation types of anterior implants (p < 0.008). In the All-on-Four treatment of dental implants, the bone stress and strain were higher when the load was applied to the CE of dentures. Altering the position or angulation of the anterior dental implant in the All-on-Four treatment has no benefit in relieving the stress and strain of the bone around the dental implant.
