Mechanical analysis by numerical simulation
Tests by means of numerical simulation, or the finite elements method, are performed to evaluate biomechanical reactions of Avinent dental implants to diverse stress conditions. By means of these tests, the ideal design of implants and abutments has been developed, attaining minimum dimensional tolerances, evaluating performance under different masticatory loads, and taking into account the implant-bone stress distribution in order to achieve better osteointegration.
