Comparative Finite Element Analysis of Short Implants with Different Treatment Approaches in the Atrophic Mandible.

CONCLUSION: Distally placed short implants contributed to the reduction of stress values of the implants and the surrounding bone. The combination of two short and four straight implants without cantilevers may be a beneficial design in the rehabilitation of posteriorly atrophic mandibles. PMID: 32724926 [PubMed - in process]
