5. What is A Dental Implant?
• Development of an ideal substitute for missing
teeth has been one of the long-term aims of
dentistry. A dental implant is a biocompatible
screw-like titanium ‘fixture’ that is surgically
placed into the jawbone.
• An implant post or abutment and permanent
tooth can be attached in a variety of designs.
6. What is the Benefit?
• The long-term benefits of dental implants include
improved appearance, comfort, speech and self-
esteem.
• With the dental implant, the patient can eat more
conveniently .
• embarrassment caused by removable partial and
full dentures can be eliminated. In addition the
implant is
• able to protect the remaining natural teeth, stop
bone loss and restore facial skeletal structure
8. What is FEA?
• Finite element analysis (FEA) is a
computerized method for predicting how a
product reacts to real-world forces, vibration,
heat, fluid flow, and other physical effects.
• Finite element analysis shows whether a
product will break, wear out, or work the way
it was designed. It is called analysis, but in the
product development process, it is used to
predict what is going to happen when the
product is used.
9. What is ABAQUS?
• Abaqus FEA (formerly ABAQUS) is a software
suite for finite element analysis and
computer-aided engineering, originally
released in 1978. The name and logo of this
software are based on the abacus calculation
tool. The Abaqus product suite consists of five
core software products:
10. .
• Abaqus/CAE, or "Complete Abaqus Environment" (a backronym with
an obvious root in Computer-Aided Engineering). It is a software
application used for both the modeling and analysis of mechanical
components and assemblies (pre-processing) and visualizing the finite
element analysis result. A subset of Abaqus/CAE including only the
post-processing module can be launched independently in the
Abaqus/Viewer product.
• Abaqus/Standard, a general-purpose Finite-Element analyzer that
employs implicit integration scheme (traditional).
• Abaqus/Explicit, a special-purpose Finite-Element analyzer that
employs explicit integration scheme to solve highly nonlinear systems
with many complex contacts under transient loads.
• Abaqus/CFD, a Computational Fluid Dynamics software application
which provides advanced computational fluid dynamics capabilities
with extensive support for preprocessing and postprocessing
provided in Abaqus/CAE.
• Abaqus/Electromagnetic, a Computational electromagnetics software
application which solves advanced computational electromagnetic
problems.
23. Abaqus Analysis
2D or 3D?
• The 3D model of the
implant will contain
>50000 dof.
• So we were supposed to
use 2D model using
axisymmetric solid CAXA
model.
• But that facillity was not
in Abaqus which we
were using.
• So, we have used
CAX4R.
24. Parts• PARTS
• A Abutment
• S screw
• CC Cortical
Bone
• CB Cancellous
Bone
.
25. Mechanism
• A dental implant resembles a screw
constructed from titanium and is surgically
placed into the bone to serve as the new root
. Once the implant successfully fuses with the
bone, an abutment is placed on top of the
implant to serve as the platform that
protrudes out of the gums, and the implant
crown can then be seated on the abutment
permanently

52. Analysis
• What is S Mises?
• Von Mises stress
• .Using this information an engineer can say his
design will fail, if the maximum value of Von
Mises stress induced in the material is more
than strength of the material.
• The concept of Von mises stress arises from
the distortion energy failure theory.
55. S Max Principal
• Maximum Principle Stress Theory - According
to this theory failure will occur when the
maximum principal stress in a system reaches
the value of the maximum stress at elastic
limit in simple tension. This theory is
approximately correct for cast iron and brittle
materials generally.

58. Conclusion
• Considering the above s mises and max
principal value which have been plotted at the
same site shows that maximum stress will
occur lateral lower corner of screw and will
lead to all related complication
• Though in comparison with the paper it says
no serious stress fracture was found.
60. Advantages of FEA study
• FEA studies have several advantages over
clinical, pre-clinical, and in vitro studies.
• Patients will not be harmed by the application
of new materials and treatment modalities
that have not been previously tested.
• Animals will not suffer from these
biomechanical studies.
61. Disadvantages of FEA study
• All of these applications are being performed
on a computer, with critical limitations and
assumptions that will clearly affect the
applicability of the results to a real scenario.
• Simplifications are made for all simulated
models; therefore, the models should be
compared with each other within the same
study.
62. Summary
• FEA is a numerical stress analysis technique and is
extensively used in implant dentistry to evaluate the
risk factors from a biomechanical point of view.
• Simplifications and assumptions are the limitations of
FEA studies.
• Although advanced computer technology is used to
obtain results from simulated models, many factors
affecting clinical features such as implant macro and
micro design, material properties, loading conditions,
and boundary conditions are neglected or ignored.
Therefore, correlating FEA results with preclinical and
long-term clinical studies may help to validate research
models
