Abstract

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Trabecular metal has been reported to provide enough physiologic support for new bone formation, to induce bone ingrowth and osseointegration so as to achieve the biological synosteosis; therefore, it is available for improving the initial and second stability of the dental implant.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the stress distributional differences between porous tantalum trabecular metal (PTTM) dental implant and conventional titanium (TI) dental implant in the zone of mandibular premolar using three-dimensional finite element analysis.

METHODS: Three-dimensional finite element models emulating PTTM and TI dental implants were established using Mimics16.0 and CATIA in the zone of mandibular premolar with three types of bone (II, III, IV). Then 100 N force was applied on the abutment at a 45° angle to the vertical axis of the implants in software of MSC Patran2010 and Nastran2010, then the representative von Mises stress nodes were calculated and sampled randomly, and finally the von Mises stress distributional differences between two types of implants were analyzed using SPSS 20.0 statistical software.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The Von Mises stresses around the two types of implants both focused on the interface of the cortical bone-abutment-implant region, and the stress was relatively less for the corresponding trabecular bone. (2) If the bone quality was similar, the average von Mises stress of PTTM was higher than that of TI dental implants, but there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). As the bone density lowered (II-IV), the average Von Mises stresses were both increased, and the increasing rate of PTTM was higher than that of TI in bone of II-III, and was lower than that of TI in bone of III-IV. In this experiment, there were no significant stress distributional differences between PTTM and TI dental implant. However, with the bone density reduction, the increasing rate of average Von Mises stress for PTTM was lowered than that for TI dental implants in bone of III-IV, which suggests that PTTM dental implant may be more beneficial for the primary and secondary stability in osteoporosis patients undergoing dental implantation.
