Abstract
The effect of bone remodeling on the long-time success of dental implants is becoming critical for implant design and presurgical assessments. This study applies a previously presented remodeling simulation scheme on a computer tomography (CT)-based finite element model. The CT data of a dental implant at the upper right central incisor region 6 years after implant insertion was used. The time-dependent density change of the trabecular bone after osseointegration was studied. The trabecular structure, by means of density distribution, around the implant showed similarities to the CT images at many regions.
