Biomechanical Property of Dental Implants due to Chewing Force and Bone Properties.

저작력과 골질에 따른 치과용 임프란트의 생체 역학적 특성

The micromovements and stress distributions of cancellous bone in dental implant system play important roles in evaluating chewing function of an implant system. The micromovements and stress distributions in dental implant system generally depend on the chewing force and bone properties. Three dimensional nonlinear finite element analysis has been employed to investigate this issue quantitatively. Chewing forces and bone properties are classified into several groups and three types of implants involving one classical cylindrical type and two expandable implants are investigated in this paper.
