Abstract
The study emphasizes the need to consider the bone remodelling process in stability
analysis studies for implant-supported bridges. The research factors in the impact of
changes in bone mechanical properties during the healing period, starting from
implant placement until the completion of bone healing. The study demonstrates that
bone remodelling is dynamic around the implant placement site, and the location of
implant placement plays a crucial role in determining changes in bone density. Finite
element analysis without considering bone remodelling results in the areas of high
micro-strain and a relatively lower assessment of risk differences associated with the
number of implants. This study provides valuable insight into the impact of
considering bone remodelling on the stability analysis of implant-supported bridges.
This can guide the development of better implant designs and treatment plans that take
bone remodelling into account to improve patient outcomes.
