Biomechanics of Dental Implants.

      Аннотация: Oral implantology has become an independent branch of Dentistry decades ago but it still maintains a close touch with all the other branches. Implant therapy should always be considered from numerous points of view, including anatomy, maxillofacial surgery, periodontology, prosthetic dentistry, dental and facial esthetics, and finally, biomechanics.Dental Biomechanics is defined as the relationship between the biologic behavior of oral structures and the physical influence of a dental restoration. Biomechanics translates to the kind of interactions between the tissues of the body and forces acting on them and response of the tissues to the applied loads. Implant biomechanics can be reactive or therapeutic in nature. It deals with biomechanical factors that are of destructive nature to the implants and the clinical process of altering each biomechanical factor to reduce the cumulative response causing implant overload.
