Evaluation of Different Bar Materials in Terms of Stress Transmission in All-on-four and All-on-three Concepts: A Three-dimensional Finite Element Analysis
Abstract:Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of materials used in bar construction in all-on-four (AOF) and all-on-three (AOT) concepts on stress transmission by three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA) method. Materials and methods: Two models were designed to simulate the AOF and AOT concepts in the mandible. For the AOF concept, the mesial implants were placed at the canine teeth position and the distal implants were inclined 40° distally, with the neck portions protruding from the seco… Show more
