A comparative evaluation of the peri-implant strain transmitted through splinted and non-splinted cement retained prostheses on implants of two different lengths
Abstract:Aim - The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the peri-implant strain transmitted through splinted and non-splinted prostheses cemented on implants of two different lengths (8mm and 11.5mm) when subjected to an axial load. Method – The study was conducted on two polypropylene models on which implants of 8mm and 11.5mm length were placed in the molar region. Splinted and non-splinted prostheses were cemented to the implant abutments placed on the implants. Metal jig simulating the anatomy of the oppos… Show more
