Dental Implant Systems

Dental Implant Systems

Among various dental materials and their successful applications, a dental implant is a good example of the integrated system of science and technology involved in multiple disciplines including surface chemistry and physics, biomechanics, from macro-scale to nano-scale manufacturing technologies and surface engineering. As many other dental materials and devices, there are crucial requirements...

The Frequency of Dentists’ Use and Satisfaction of Different Dental Implant Systems in Qom City, (Iran)

Abstract Background and Objectives: Considering the increasing use of implant, many dentists are willing to use implants with the highest quality and ease of work. Therefore, the present study was performed to investigate the frequency of use and satisfaction of the dentists from different dental implant systems in Qom city.   Methods: In this descriptive and cross-sectional study, a questionn...

The accuracy of various torque wrenches used in dental implant systems

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of the torque wrenches used in different dental implant systems. Methods: We evaluated 42 torque wrenches used in different dental clinics in Mashhad, Iran, using a digital torque meter (Mark 10). High (25, 30 and 35 N·cm) and low (15 N·cm) levels of torque were examined. Ten tests were performed on each wrench, and the mean va...

Predictions of bone remodeling around dental implant systems.

This study presents the implementation of a mathematical bone remodeling algorithm to bone adaptation in the premolar area of the mandible around various dental implant systems, and thus sheds a new perspective to the complex interactions in dental implant mechanics. A two-dimensional, plane strain model of the bone was built from a CT-scan. The effect of implant contour on internal bone remode...
