Finite Element Investigation Of Mechanical Interaction Of Dental Implants With Bone

Eser, Atilim 01 July 2007 (has links) (PDF)
During the last years, biomechaniccs, the understanding of the very complex mechanical behavior of living tissue, becomes a very important field of research of the wide bravch of mechanichs. Thia study is very important, for instance , to improve the design of implants, with the important social and economical impact. one of important challenges in implant design is to model the complex material behavior of the bone. Remodeling of the bone due to the lodaing is one of the essential behaviors of the bone which can cause for the dental implants, marginal bone loss accuring particallary in the first years of function. On the other hand the finite element method(FEM) has become the most extended tool for engineers to analyse the mechanical behavior of the products which usualy have a complex material behavior and complicated geometries. The aim of this study is to model the remodeling behavior of the bone using FEM and to use the new bone material method to evaluate the implant performance for some commercial implants, taking account of the bone adaptation.

Survival of Zirconia Implants: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Mohseni, Parvin, Soufi, Ahmad January 2023 (has links)
Aim To assess the clinical outcomes of zirconia implants, namely survival rate and the prevalence of fracture, based on a systematic review of the literature. Material and method An electronic search was conducted in three databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct), last updated in October 2022. Inclusion criteria were clinical human studies providing information on implant failure rates in any group of patients receiving zirconia dental implants. Log-rank test was used to compare the survival distributions of implants between some groups of variables. Interval survival rate (ISR) and cumulative survival rate (CSR) were calculated. Results Thirty-seven publications were included in the review, with 2941 zirconia implants in 1766 patients, with a mean follow-up of 36.3 ± 22.7 months. There were 182 implant failures, with the great majority of them occurring within the first year after implant installation. Twenty-four implant fractures were reported, most of them in implants of narrow diameter. There was no statistically significant difference of implant failure between the anterior and posterior regions (p = 0.798), nor between maxilla and mandible (p = 0.341), nor between one- and two-piece implants (p = 0.787). The CSR after 10 years was 88.1 %. Conclusion Clinical studies assessing clinical outcomes of zirconia implants in humans have a relatively short mean follow-up time. Zirconia implants present a CSR of 88.1% after 10 years, with most failures happening within the first year after implant installation. Implants of narrow diameter present higher risk of fractures than implants of wider diameter. / Syfte Att bedöma de kliniska resultaten av zirkonia implantat, överlevnadsgrad och förekomst av frakturer, baserat på en systematisk översikt av litteraturen. Material och metod En elektronisk sökning gjordes i tre olika databaser (PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct), senast uppdaterad i oktober 2022. Inklusions kriterier var kliniska humanstudier som gav information om frekvensen av implantatfel hos vilken grupp patienter som helst som fick zirkonia tandimplantat. Log-rank test användes för att jämföra överlevnadsfördelningen av implantat mellan vissa grupper av variabler. Intervallöverlevnadsfrekvens (ISR) och kumulativ överlevnadsfrekvens (CSR) beräknades. Resultat Trettio-sju publikationer inkluderades i granskningen, med 2941 zirkonia implantat hos 1766 patienter, med en genomsnittlig uppföljning på 36,3 ± 22,7 månader. Det förekom 182 implantatfel, varav den stora majoriteten inträffades under det första året efter implantatinstallationen. Tjugo-fyra implantatfrakturer rapporterades, de flesta i implantat med smal diameter. Det fanns ingen statistiskt signifikant skillnad av implantatfel mellan de främre och bakre områdena (p = 0,798), inte heller mellan maxilla och underkäken (p = 0,341), inte heller mellan implantat i ett och två delar (p = 0,787). CSR efter 10 år var 88,1 %. Slutsats Kliniska studier som bedömer kliniska resultat av zirkonia implantat hos människor har en relativt kort genomsnittlig uppföljningstid. Zirkonia implantat uppvisar en CSR på 88,1 % efter 10 år, med de flesta fel som inträffar inom det första året efter implantatinstallationen. Implantat med smal diameter ger högre risk för frakturer än implantat med bredare diameter.

Bruxism and dental implants:a systematic review and meta-analysis

Ali, David, Aljamal, Mustafa January 2022 (has links)
Purpose: The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of bruxism on dental implant failure rates andmarginal bone loss (MBL), based on a systematic review of the literature. Materials and methods: An electronic search without time restrictions was undertaken (last updated in September2021) in three databases, plus handsearching. Only studies that provided enough informationon the criteria used for the diagnosis of at least ‘probable bruxism’ (self-report + clinicalexamination) were considered for inclusion. Meta-analyses were performed besides meta-regressions, in order to verify how the odds ratio (OR) was associated with follow-up time. Results: The review included 23 publications. Altogether, there were 1,991 and 9,438 implants placedin bruxers and non-bruxers, respectively. Pairwise meta-analysis including only the studiesthat provided enough information on the criteria used for the diagnosis of at least ‘probablebruxism’ resulted in significant failure rate difference between the groups (OR 1.987, p =0.015). There was an estimated increase of 0.010 in OR for every additional month of follow-up (p = 0.209). None of the included studies reported results on MBL separated betweenbruxers and non-bruxers. Conclusion: Implants placed in bruxers present a significant higher risk of failure than in non-bruxers.Studies comparing MBL between the groups are still lacking. / Syfte Den aktuella studien syftade till att utvärdera effekten av bruxism på dentala implantats misslyckandefrekvens och marginell benförlust (MBL), baserat på en systematisk översikt av litteraturen. Material och metod: En elektronisk sökning utan tidsbegränsningar gjordes (senast uppdaterad i september 2021) i tre databaser, plus handsökning. Endast studier som gav tillräckligt med information om de kriterier som användes för diagnos av åtminstone ’trolig bruxism’ (självrapportering + klinisk undersökning) övervägdes för inkludering. Metaanalyser utfördes förutom metaregressioner, för att verifiera hur oddskvoten (OR) var associerad med uppföljningstid. Resultat: Översikten omfattade 23 publikationer. Sammanlagt fanns det 1 991 och 9 438 implantat placerade i bruxare respektive icke-bruxare. Parvis metaanalys som endast inkluderade studierna som gav tillräckligt med information om kriterierna som användes för diagnosen av åtminstone ’probable bruxism’ resulterade i signifikant skillnad i felfrekvens mellan grupperna (OR 1,987, p = 0,015). Det var en uppskattad ökning med 0,010 i OR för varje ytterligare månad av uppföljning (p = 0,209). Ingen av de inkluderade studierna rapporterade resultat på MBL separerade av bruxare och icke-bruxare. Slutsats: Implantat placerade i bruxare innebär en signifikant högre risk för misslyckande än hos icke-bruxare. Studier som jämför MBL mellan grupperna saknas fortfarande.
