Applications of Finite Element in Implant Dentistry and Oral Rehabilitation

The Open Dentistry Journal 01 Sept 2021 REVIEW ARTICLE DOI: 10.2174/1874210602115010392

Abstract

Finite element is widely applied in dentistry to study the stress distributions on adjoining bone, the biomechanics of dental implant and bone; implant and bone interface and study its fatigue behaviors of the implant. This article presents various applications of finite element in implant dentistry. Available articles were searched and reviewed from March 1980 till September 2020 from Pubmed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Science direct. Relevant studies were included and critically analyzed. Finite element is an important tool in implant dentistry to study the stress distributions on adjoining bone, the biomechanics of dental implant and bone; implant and bone interface, and fatigue behaviors.

Keywords: Dental implant, Finite element analysis, Models, Nonlinear dynamics, Biological, Stress, Mechanical.
