Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze how stress is distributed in bone around dental implants under lateral immediate loading at various angles using a three-dimensional finite element model.
- A 3D mesh model of an edentulous mandible was created from CT scans, and different angles of lateral load were tested to observe the resulting Von Mises stress on the bone.
- Results indicated that vertical loads distribute stress evenly, whereas lateral loads significantly increase stress concentration, especially at the cortical bone cervix of the implant, with stress values being up to four times higher compared to vertical loading.
