Hasarlı Çene Kemiklerinde Abutment Boyunun Dental İmplant Sistemi Üzerindeki Etkileri

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the stresses occurred onhard and soft bones after recovering the deficiency caused by totally edentulousand damaged mandible by using abutments with different lengths andprosthesis filling material. Two different damaged parts of 2.5 and 4.5 mm indepth were created with the aid of Solidworks program on the right hand sideof the mandible. Implants were then applied between the foremen channels.Later, the damaged models were recovered by abutment with different lengthsas for the first method. Two models using abutment were, therefore, obtainedfor the damaged parts of 2.5 and 4.5 mm in depth. In the second method, for thesame damaged cases, prosthesis filling material was used to recover deficiencykeeping the abutment length constant. Finally, there were totally obtained 4different damaged models of two fixed with abutment and two fixed with fillingmaterial and 1 undamaged model. At the second step of this study, the stressvalues were obtained on lower jaw bones by using finite element method underthe maximum chewing force and compared to each other. The results showedthat stress data obtained particularly on the soft and hard bones weredistributed more uniformly on the damaged models fixed with prosthesis fillingmaterial compared to the damaged models recovered by abutment. Moreover,the stress values obtained for models fixed with different abutment length wererather high in comparison to those of the filling material applicatio
