Mechanical Evaluation of Dental Implants

Yiping Deng

The mechanical evaluation of dental implants holds a pivotal role in ensuring their long-term stability and functionality within the dynamic oral environment. Dental implants have transformed restorative dentistry, offering a robust solution for replacing missing teeth. This article provides an overview of the critical aspects involved in the mechanical assessment of dental implants. It explores the biomechanics of the oral environment, the influence of design and materials, osseointegration, load transfer, bite force analysis, fatigue resistance, and the significance of the implant-abutment complex. By comprehensively examining these factors, dental professionals can enhance their understanding of implant performance, enabling them to make informed decisions for optimizing the mechanical integrity of dental implant treatments.
