Part of the new series, Advanced Topics in Science and Technology in China, this book is designed to give the necessary theoretical foundation to new users of the finite element method in implant dentistry, and show how both the implant dentist and designer can benefit from finite element analysis. The first part deals with the theory of the finite element method. containing the necessary mathematical theory but written so that readers from a dental background can easily understand. Then basic knowledge of implant dentistry is introduced to readers from an engineering background. Next, dental implant applications, and the critical issues of using finite element analysis for dental implants are discussed, followed by aspects of dental implant modeling. Finally, two popular commercial finite element software programs, ANSYS and ABACUS, are introduced for dental finite element analysis. Dr J.P. Geng is a professional implant dentist and has been an implant designer for 15 years.
Part of the new series Advanced Topics in Science and Technology in China, this book creates the theoretical foundation that novices need to perform the finite element method in implant dentistry. It clearly shows how both the implant dentist and the designer can benefit from finite element analysis.
The first part explains the underlying mathematical theory of the finite element method in terms that readers from a dental background can easily understand. Then, you’re introduced to implant dentistry from an engineering perspective.
Dental implant applications, alongside the critical issues in using finite element analysis for dental implant design, are discussed. The discussion is followed by a presentation of dental implant modeling.
Helping you apply the content to your own practice, the authors give step-by step-instructions on how to use commercial FEA software for dental implants. Two popular commercial finite element software programs, ANSYS and ABACUS, are introduced to help you apply your own finite element analysis in designing dental implants.
