The effect of implant and abutment diameter on peri-implant bone stress: A three-dimensional finite element analysis

Introduction: Load transfer mechanisms from the implant to surrounding bone and failure of osseointegrated implants are affected by implant geometry and mechanical properties of the site of placement as well as crestal bone resorption. Estimation of such effects allows for a correct design of implan...
