Abstract :

A new era of oral rehabilitation began with the introduction of Osseointegrated dental implants. This study analyses the stress around an implant and the jaw bone by applying a known load along the axial direction and non axial direction. Root form implants of 4.5 mm x 15 mm with screw retained abutment was created by ANSYS and Pro engineer software. A pressure of 200 Psi which is equivalent to biting force was applied on the occlusal surface of the Crown. An additional pressure of 50 Psi was applied on the crown in horizontal direction.

The distribution indicates that most of the stress is concentrated around the area surrounding the cortical bone near the implant abutment interface.
