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.

Maximum Stresses

The stress distribution in cortical bone and dental implant has been modeled by finite element method (FEM) using linear static analysis in the case of monocortical and bicortical fixation of a real dental implant for three cortical bone thicknesses: 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 4 mm. The analysis revealed that the highest stresses in the cortical bone and in the implant after three-axial loading are localized at the edge of the cortical bone near the implant neck where bending moment is the highest. An increase of the maximum stresses has been observed with the decrease of the intraosseal length of the implant and cortical bone thickness.

Dental implant macro- and micro-shape should be designed to maximize the delivery of optimal favorable stresses in the surrounding bone region. The present study aimed to evaluate the stress distribution in cortical and cancellous bone surrounding two models of dental implants with the same diameter and length (4.0 × 11 mm) and different implant/neck design and thread patterns. Sample A was a standard cylindric implant with cylindric neck and V-shaped threads, and sample B was a new conical implant with reverse conical neck and with “nest shape” thread design, optimized for the favorable stress distribution in the peri-implant marginal bone region. Materials and methods: The three-dimensional model was composed of trabecular and cortical bone corresponding to the first premolar mandibular region. The response to static forces on the samples A and B were compared by finite element analysis (FEA) using an axial load of 100 N and an oblique load of 223.6 N (resulting from a vertical load of 100 N and a horizontal load of 200 N). Results: Both samples provided acceptable results under loadings, but the model B implant design showed lower strain values than the model A implant design, especially in cortical bone surrounding the neck region of the implant. Conclusions: Within the limitation of the present study, analyses suggest that the new dental implant design may minimize the transfer of stress to the peri-implant cortical bone.

Changes in medullary and cortical bone structure with age remain unclear. Twenty Hy-Line W36 hens, 25 or 52 weeks of age, were euthanized, and both tibiae were collected when an egg was present in the magnum. Serial cross sections of the tibiae were stained with Alcian blue. The bones were scanned using micro-computed tomography. Trabecular width (Tb.Wi) was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in 25-week-old hens, whereas medullary bone tissue volume (TV) was significantly higher (p < 0.01) in 52-week-old hens. 25-week-old hens had significantly higher (p < 0.01) bone volume fraction (BVF = calcified tissue / TV). Moreover, the cortical bone parameters were significantly higher (TV and bone mineral content (BMC) at p < 0.05, and bone volume (BV) and BVF at p < 0.01) in younger hens. Open porosity and total porosity, which indicate less density, were significantly higher (p < 0.01) in older hens. Older hens showed significantly higher (p < 0.01) tibial diaphysis TV than younger hens. Younger hens had significantly higher (p < 0.01) BV, BVF and bone mineral density (BMD) of the tibial diaphysis. These findings reveal that reductions in medullary bone quality might be associated with age-related low estrogen levels and stimulation of osteoclastic bone resorption by parathyroid hormone. Cortical bone quality decreased with enlargement of the Haversian canals and loss of volume, with a longer egg-laying period leading to osteoporosis.

Dental implants are widely used as a long-term treatment solution for missing teeth. A titanium implant is inserted into the jawbone, acting as a replacement for the lost tooth root and can then support a denture, crown or bridge. This allows discreet and high-quality aesthetic and functional improvement, boosting patient confidence. The use of implants also restores normal functions such as speech and mastication. Once an implant is placed, the surrounding bone will fuse to the titanium in a process known as osseointegration. The success of osseointegration is dependent on stress distribution within the surrounding bone and thus implant geometry plays an important role in it. Optimisation analyses are used to identify the geometry which results in the most favourable stress distribution, but the traditional methodology is inefficient, requiring analysis of numerous models and parameter combinations to identify the optimal solution. A proposed improvement to the traditional methodology includes the use of Design of Experiments (DOE) together with Response Surface Methodology (RSM). This would allow for a well-reasoned combination of parameters to be proposed. This study aims to use DOE, RSM and finite element models to develop a simplified optimisation analysis method for dental implant design. Drawing on data and results from previous studies, two-dimensional finite element models of a single Branemark implant, a multi-unit abutment, two prosthetic screws, a prosthetic crown and a region of mandibular bone were built. A small number of combinations of implant diameter and length were set based on the DOE method to analyse the influence of geometry on stress distribution at the bone-implant interface. The results agreed with previous studies and indicated that implant length is the critical parameter in reducing stress on cortical bone. The proposed method represents a more efficient analysis of multiple geometrical combinations with reduced time and computational cost, using fewer than a third of the models required by the traditional methods. Further work should include the application of this methodology to optimisation analyses using three-dimensional finite element models.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of fibromucosa height on the stress distribution and displacement of mandibular total prostheses during posterior unilateral load, posterior bilateral load and anterior guidance using the finite element analysis (FEA). Material and methods: 3D virtual models were made to simulate the stress generated during different mandibular movements in a total prosthesis. The contacts were simulated according to the physiology, being considered perfectly bonded between cortical and medullar bones; and between cortical bone and mucosa. Non-linear frictional contact was used for the total prosthesis base and fibromucosa, allowing the prosthesis to slide over the tissue. The cortical bone base was fixed and the 100 N load was applied as unilateral load, posterior bilateral load and anterior guidance simulation. The required results were for maximum principal stress (MPa), microstrain (mm/mm) and total displacement (mm). The numerical results were converted into colorimetric maps and arranged according to corresponding scales. Results: The stress generated in all situations was directly proportional to the fibromucosa height. The maximum principal stress results demonstrated greater magnitude for anterior guidance, posterior unilateral and posterior bilateral, respectively. Only posterior unilateral load demonstrated an increase in bone microstrain, regardless of the fibromucosa height. Prosthesis displacement was lower under posterior bilateral loading. Conclusion: Posterior bilateral loading is indicated for total prosthesis because it allows lower prosthesis displacement, lower stress concentration at the base of the prosthesis and less bone microstrain.   Keywords Finite element analysis; Occlusion; Total prosthesis.
