Assessment of stress-strain states of the girder-frame orthopedic structures based on dental implants in the complete absence of teeth

Khafizov Irek Raisovich

In the modern practice of the dentist, there is a large arsenal of materials and various methods of prosthetic dentistry, even in their absence. One of the types of prosthetics is the use of beam-frame semi-removable prostheses based on dental implants. However, when considering this type of structure, there is an acute problem of determining objective criteria for selecting and evaluating the functioning of these systems. In this paper, the possibilities of using modern programs of reverse engineering and finite element analysis are considered. The methods of application of these techniques in everyday dental prosthetic practice, contributing to the transition of traditional methods of manufacturing to digital technology are given.

Keywords:multicomponent prostheses, dental implants, criteria for the selection of structures, an objective prediction of functioning, CAD/CAM.
