Statement Of Problem: Accurate implant placement is essential for the success of dental implants. This placement influences osseointegration and occlusal forces. The freehand technique, despite its cost-effectiveness and time efficiency, may result in significant angular deviations compared with guided implantation, but the effect of angular deviations on the stress-strain state of peri-implant bone is unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this finite element analysis (FEA) study was to examine the effects of angular deviations on stress-strain states in peri-implant bone.
Material And Methods: Computational modeling was used to investigate 4 different configurations of dental implant positions, each with 3 angles of insertion. The model was developed using computed tomography images, and typical mastication forces were considered. Strains were analyzed using the mechanostat hypothesis.
Results: The location of the implant had a significant impact on bone strain intensity. An angular deviation of ±5 degrees from the planned inclination did not significantly affect cancellous bone strains, which primarily support the implant. However, it had a substantial effect on strains in the cortical bone near the implant. Such deviations also significantly influenced implant stresses, especially when the support from the cortical bone was uneven or poorly localized.
Conclusions: In extreme situations, angular deviations can lead to overstraining the cortical bone, risking implant failure from unfavorable interaction with the implant. Accurate implant placement is essential to mitigate these risks.

This paper presents the design, development, and investigation of a novel piezoelectric inertial motor whose target application is the low Earth orbit (LEO) temperature conditions. The motor utilizes the inertial stick-slip principle, driven by the first bending mode of three piezoelectric bimorph plates, and is compact and lightweight, with a total volume of 443 cm and a mass of 28.14 g.

: Achieving ideal anchorage is crucial in orthodontics for controlled tooth movement. Miniscrews (MSs) have improved skeletal anchorage, but freehand placement poses risks like root damage and limited precision. Guided techniques, including radiographic guides and computer-assisted methods (static [sCAS] and dynamic [dCAS]), were developed to enhance accuracy and safety.

Three-dimensional (3D) facial models have been increasingly applied in orthodontics, orthognathic surgery, and various medical fields. This study proposed an approach to reconstructing 3D facial models from standard orthodontic frontal and lateral images, providing an efficient way to expand 3D databases. A total of 23 participants (average age 20.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical performance (degree of trueness) of a novel scan body "tooth-modified Scan body" (TMSB)& conventional scan body (CSB) in implant-supported full arch screw retained cases.
Methods: Seven edentulous arches (two maxillae, five mandibles) in 6 patients were rehabilitated with monolithic zirconia screw-retained implant prostheses supported by 4 (n = 1) and 5 implants (n = 6) for a total amount of 34 implants. Implant locations were scanned by intra-oral scanner (IOS) using two types of scan bodies, conventional scan bodies (CSB) in group (1) and tooth-modified scan bodies (TMSB) in group (2).
