Abstract

Biomechanical research has gained recognition in medical sciences. Osseointegrated dental implants, being medical devices functioning under constant load, are one of the focal points of such research. One of the most powerful tools for biomechanical research on dental implants is finite element analysis (FEA). This chapter will cope with basic elements of FEA research, the mechanical properties of bone and the various parts of dental implants, as well as delve into published literature on the subject.
