Conventional osteotomy techniques can, in some cases, induce higher stress on bone during implant insertion as a result of higher torque. The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the stress exerted on the underlying osseous tissues during the insertion of a tapered implant using different osteotomy techniques through a dynamic finite element analysis which has been widely applied to study biomedical problems through computer-aided software. In three different types of osteotomy techniques, namely conventional (B1), bone tap (B2), and countersink (B3), five models and implants designed per technique were prepared, implant insertion was simulated, and stress exerted by the implant during each was evaluated. Comparison of stress scores on the cortical and cancellous bone at different time points and time intervals from initiation of insertion to the final placement of the implant was made. There was a highly statistically significant difference between B1 and B2 (p = 0.0001) and B2 and B3 (p = 0.0001) groups. In contrast, there was no statistically significant difference in the stress scores between B1 and B3 (p = 0.3080) groups at all time points of implant placement. Overall, a highly significant difference was observed between the stresses exerted in each technique. Within the limitations of our study, bone tap significantly exerted lesser stresses on the entire bone than conventional and countersink type of osteotomy procedures. Considering the stress distribution at the crestal region, the countersink showed lower values in comparison to others.

The effect of a restored machined hybrid dental ceramic crown–tooth complex is not well understood. This study was conducted to determine the effect of the stress state of the machined hybrid dental ceramic crown using three-dimensional finite element analysis. Human premolars were prepared to receive full coverage crowns and restored with machined hybrid dental ceramic crowns using the resin cement. Then, the teeth were digitized using micro-computed tomography and the teeth were scanned with an optical intraoral scanner using an intraoral scanner. Three-dimensional digital models were generated using an interactive image processing software for the restored tooth complex. The generated models were imported into a finite element analysis software with all degrees of freedom concentrated on the outer surface of the root of the crown–tooth complex. To simulate average occlusal load subjected on a premolar a total load of 300 N was applied, 150 N at a buccal incline of the palatal cusp, and palatal incline of the buccal cusp. The von Mises stresses were calculated for the crown–tooth complex under simulated load application was determined. Three-dimensional finite element analysis showed that the stress distribution was more in the dentine and least in the cement. For the cement layer, the stresses were more concentrated on the buccal cusp tip. In dentine, stress was more on the cusp tips and coronal 1/3 of the root surface. The conventional crown preparation is a suitable option for machined polymer crowns with less stress distribution within the crown–tooth complex and can be a good aesthetic replacement in the posterior region. Enamic crowns are a good viable option in the posterior region.

ABSTRACT Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mechanical behavior of two different straight prosthetic abutments (one- and two-piece) for external hex butt-joint connection implants using three-dimensional finite element analysis (3D-FEA). Materials and Methods: Two 3D-FEA models were designed, one for the two-piece prosthetic abutment (2 mm in height, two-piece mini-conical abutment, Neodent) and another one for the one-piece abutment (2 mm in height, Slim Fit one-piece mini-conical abutment, Neodent), with their corresponding screws and implants (Titamax Ti, 3.75 diameter by 13 mm in length, Neodent). The model simulated the single restoration of a lower premolar using data from a computerized tomography of a mandible. The preload (20 N) after torque application for installation of the abutment and an occlusal loading were simulated. The occlusal load was simulated using average physiological bite force and direction (114.6 N in the axial direction, 17.1 N in the lingual direction and 23.4 N toward the mesial at an angle of 75° to the occlusal plan). Results: The regions with the highest von Mises stress results were at the bottom of the initial two threads of both prosthetic abutments that were tested. The one-piece prosthetic abutment presented a more homogeneous behavior of stress distribution when compared with the two-piece abutment. Conclusions: Under the simulated chewing loads, the von Mises stresses for both tested prosthetic-abutments were within the tensile strength values of the materials analyzed which thus supports the clinical use of both prosthetic abutments.
