Dental implants and abutments were scanned, and the scans were analysed using NX Nastran software to create finite element models. A total of 48 experimental states from 12 finite element models were initiated with different conditions according to diameter, length, crown height, and direction of the occlusal force. The results showed that crown height did not influence the stress concentration on implant abutment and surrounding bone under axial (90?) loading, while oblique (45?) loading strongly influenced the outcome. Increasing the crown to implant ratio from 1:1 to 2:1 resulted in increasing stress values 22.38-76.78%. The results of this study suggest that connecting two restorations does not have significance difference on stress distribution to implant. In splinted models, stress tends to concentrate on outer implant fixtures and peri-implant structures.x, 43 leaves : ill.application/pdfengผลงานนี้เป็นลิขสิทธิ์ของมหาวิทยาลัยมหิดล ขอสงวนไว้สำหรับเพื่อการศึกษาเท่านั้น ต้องอ้างอิงแหล่งที่มา ห้ามดัดแปลงเนื้อหา และห้ามนำไปใช้เพื่อการค้าDental implantsFinite element methodStress concentrationBiomechanical evaluation of splinted 4- and 6- millimeters short dental implants with different crown-implant ratios, a finite element analysisMaster ThesisMahidol University
