Finite Element Analysis of the Effect of Dental Implants on Jaw Bone under Mechanical and Thermal Loading Conditions

Dental implants have been studied over the years to replace missing teeth. One of conditions for success is their stability and resistance under applied forces minimal tension in surrounding bone. The purpose this dissertation numerical three-dimensional analysis jaws with mechanical thermal loading by finite element method. For purpose, implant simulations (including ceramic crown, titanium root, jaw bone) dynamic load performed Abacus software. In simulation, it considered that jawbone composed two areas, one area superficial bone tissue (cortical) other part spongy tissue. Implants are usually made different metals or ceramics a bone-like structure compatible body tissues. currently metal. Therefore, metal has used modeling dissertation. crown also as material. effect stresses imposed on performed. force upper enters through implant, which causes at junction jawbone. To investigate loads, temperature considering decrease increase tooth surface its After validation ensuring accuracy modeling, observed that, increasing load, created all parts coating, implants, increased. It stress due application negative heat flux was about twice much positive flux.
