Abstract:
In this study, we used a finite element method to evaluate the maximum Von Mises stresses in jaw bones of immediately loaded implant with different thread heights and widths, and the maximum displacements in implant-abutment complex. The implant thread height ranged from 0.20 to 0.60 mm, and the thread width ranged from 0.10 to 0.40 mm. Compared to those in standard designed implants, the maximum Von Mises stresses in cortical and cancellous bones with axially loaded implants decreased by 18.85% and 47.46%, respectively, and by 16.38% and 63.46%, respectively in buccolingually loaded implants. The maximum displacement of implant-abutment complex loaded axially and buccolingually decreased by 13.78% and 6.97%, respectively. These results indicated that thread height played more important roles in affecting bone stresses and implant-abutment complex stability than thread width. Immediately loaded cylinder implants with thread height exceeding 0.44 mm and width ranging from 0.19 to 0.23 mm caused the lowest stresses to the type B/2 bone.

To compute the shear forces, find the shear flow at a specific distance from the endpoint using the vertical shear and the moment of inertia values. The total shear force on the flange is calculated by integrating the shear flow from one end of the flange to the other.
