Abstract

Abstract: Introduction: A better tension distribution on implants and abutments in implant-supported fixed partial prosthesis is essential in the rehabilitation of posterior mandible area. Objective: To evaluate the influence of cantilever position and implant connection in a zircônia custom implant-supported fixed partial prosthesis using the 3-D finite element method. Material and method: Four models were made based on tomographic slices of the posterior mandible with a zirconia custom three-fixed screw-retained partial prosthesis. The investigated factors of the in silico study were: cantilever position (mesial or distal) and implant connection (external hexagon or morse taper). 100 N vertical load to premolar and 300 N to molar were used to simulate the occlusal force in each model to evaluate the distribution of stresses in implants, abutments, screws and cortical and cancellous bone. Result: The external hexagon (EH) connection showed higher cortical compression stress when compared to the morse taper (MT). For both connections, the molar cantilever position had the highest cortical compression. The maximum stress peak concentration was located at the cervical bone in contact with the threads of the first implant. The prosthetic and abutment screws associated with the molar cantilevers showed the highest stress concentration, especially with the EH connection. Conclusion: Morse taper implant connetions associated with a mesial cantilever showed a more favorable treatment option for posterior mandible rehabilitation.

Resumo

Resumo: Introdução: Uma melhor distribuição de tensão em implantes e mini-pilares em próteses parciais fixas implanto-suportadas é essencial na reabilitação em região posterior de mandíbula. Objetivo: Avaliar a influência da posição do cantilever e conexão do implante em uma prótese fixa de três elementos confeccionada totalmente em zircônia através do método de elementos finitos tridimensionais (MEF). Material e método: Foram confeccionados quatro modelos baseados em cortes tomográficos da região posterior da mandíbula com uma prótese parcial parafusada fixada em três fixações personalizadas de zircônia. Os fatores investigados do estudo in sílico foram: posição do cantilever (mesial ou distal) e conexão do implante (hexágono externo ou cone morse). Uma carga de 100 N para a região de pré-molares e de 300 N para a região de molares foi usada para simular a força oclusal em cada modelo para avaliação da distribuição de tensões nos implantes, mini pilares, parafusos e tecido ósseo cortical e medular. Resultado: A conexão hexágono externo apresentou maior concentração de tensão no osso cortical quando comparado ao cone morse. Para ambas conexões, o cantilever distal aumentou a tensão no osso cortical. O pico máximo de tensão foi localizado no osso cervical em contato com as primeiras roscas internas do primeiro implante. Os parafusos protéticos e dos mini-pilares associados ao cantilever distal apresentaram maior concentração de tensão, especialmente na conexão hexágono externo. Conclusão: Conexão do implante cone morse associada ao cantilever mesial apresentou uma opção de tratamento mais favorável para a reabilitação na região posterior de mandíbula.
