Background/purpose: The use of finite element (FE) analysis in implant biomechanics offers many advantages over other approaches in simulating the complexity of clinical situations. The aim of this study was to perform an optimization analysis of dental implants with different thread designs in three types of bone quality.
Materials And Methods: The three-dimensional FE model of a mandibular bone block with a screw-shaped dental implant and superstructure was simulated.
