Due to lack of the periodontal ligament, osseointegrated implants, unlike natural teeth, react
biomechanically in a different fashion to occlusal force. It is therefore believed that dental …

Background The reasons for long‐term marginal bone loss around oral implants are not well
understood. Purpose The aim of this paper is to analyze presented evidence behind …

Objectives: Implant design features such as macro‐and micro‐design may influence overall
implant success. Limited information is currently available. Therefore, it is the purpose of this …

Background and aim: Compromised fit between the contact surfaces of screw-retained
implantsupported fixed dentures (IFDs) is thought to create uncontrolled strains in the …

Objectives: To evaluate published evidence related to the influence of functional forces on
the biomechanics of implant-supported prostheses. Data and sources. The literature was …

Occlusal forces affect an oral implant and the surrounding bone. According to bone
physiology theories, bones carrying mechanical loads adapt their strength to the load …

The poly‐ether‐ether‐ketone (PEEK) polymer is of great interest as an alternative to titanium
in orthopedics because of its biocompatibility and low elastic modulus. This study evaluated …

The finite element analysis (FEA) is an upcoming and significant research tool for
biomechanical analyses in biological research. It is an ultimate method for modeling …

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Information about the influence of occlusal loading by location
on the stress distribution in an implant-supported fixed partial denture and supporting bone …

Objectives: Although bone loss around implants is reported as a complication when it
progresses uncontrolled, resorption does not always lead to implant loss, but may be the …
