| Abstract Scope |
There are several hypotheses to explain the failures of osseointegrated titanium dental implants. Implant fail due lower bone mechanical properties, higher insertion torques, inadequate shape and deficient surface treatment. This work aims to measure the bone strain, quantify the insertion torque, and analyze the influence of surface treatment on the mechanical stability of dental implants. Strain gauges electric extensometers were using for bone strain measurement. The strain in the synthetic bone and the maximum insertion torques of dental implants were measured. Implant with acid surface treatment and without surface treatment (machined) implant was used. The results showed that machined implants induce higher bone deformation, require higher insertion torque and lower mechanical stability than dental implant with acid surface treatment. Machined implants induced microcracks formation in the bone during insertion. Implants with an acid-treatments surface perform better mechanical stability, lower insertion torque, and have higher clinical success rate than machined implant. |
