The process of corrosion by fluoride ions on Cp Ti implant/component sets allowed greater S. mutans adherence than in the absence of corrosion and with the fatigue process in isolation.
It was possible to conclude that both the fluoride concentration and the pH of the solutions did not exert any influence upon implant corrosion resistance.
INTRODUÇÃO : O adequado posicionamento tridimensional dos implantes é indispensável para garantir a previsibilidade no tratamento com implantes dentários. OBJETIVO : Analisar comparativamente o comportamento mecânico do sistema prótese/implante em região anterior de maxila, diferindo os sistemas de encaixe e posicionamento dos implantes. MATERIAL E MÉTODO : Utilizando um modelo prototipado de maxila, as situações estudadas foram: Grupo IC - implantes nos incisivos centrais e cantilever nos incisivos laterais; Grupo IL - implantes nos incisivos laterais e pônticos nos incisivos centrais; Grupo ICIL - implantes no incisivo central e no incisivo lateral, intercalados com elementos suspensos. Para cada situação estudada, foram utilizadas as três conexões protéticas: hexágono externo, hexágono interno e cone-Morse. O ensaio de ciclagem mecânica foi realizado com a aplicação de 100 N de carga e frequência de 15 Hz no cíngulo dos incisivos a 45° com o longo eixo do dente, para simular o movimento mastigatório. RESULTADO : No ensaio de ciclagem mecânica, todos os modelos de todos os grupos com os três tipos de conexões protéticas atingiram um milhão de ciclos sem que ocorresse ruptura do parafuso, do componente protético ou da estrutura metálica. CONCLUSÃO : Com a metodologia e as condições empregadas, pode-se concluir que o comportamento mecânico das reabilitações implantossuportadas foi semelhante para os diferentes posicionamentos dos implantes e diferentes conexões protéticas.
The prosthetic configuration of group IC limited the displacement of the prosthetic structure but led to greater displacement of the bone structure. The use of a cantilever increased the stress concentration in the implant and in the bone structure adjacent to the cantilever under the conditions studied here.
Photoelasticity consists of an experimental technique of stress analysis. This technique is very used in most different areas including Dentistry. This literature review presents the several applications of photoelastic technique in Dentistry the several applications of photoelastic technique in Dentistryas well as its advantages and disadvantages. Literature review:Based on this method of analysis, it is possible the verification of the stress distribution and deformation in structures with complex geometry as maxilla and mandible. It can be used to evaluate the distribution of stress on several types of prosthesis as removable partial denture systems with different retention systems, conventional implant prosthesis, overdentures and Brånemark protocols. Moreover, photoelasticity can be used to assess the stress generated by various by various orthodontic movements, different orthodontic systems and different materials (orthodontic wires). In addition, it is used to analyze different defects of maxillectomy, splint types on traumatized tooth and post-core restoration methods. This technique can also be used to assess dental instruments such as evaluation of different designs of periodontal probe. Conclusion: The photoelastic analysis has been a technique of great importance in health area studies, more specifically in Dentistry. Based on this method of analysis, it is possible to measure the stress distribution and deformation in structures with complex geometry as maxilla and mandible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
