Abstract

Despite their proven record in promoting osseointegration, titanium and titanium alloys present certain other challenges to providing an optimal dental implant. Titanium and suitable titanium alloys have a higher stiffness than human bone, and therefore dental implants formed from such materials absorb most of the forces of mastication. This can lead to a phenomenon known as a stress shielding of the surrounding bone. A variety of bioceramics have been developed and used in different implants due to their excellent biological performance. However, only a few of them have been used in clinical applications, especially in low load bearing implants, due to their poor mechanical strength. Little existing research has been reported for the design of dental implants made of FGM materials. However, many researchers have studied the effect of improving the dental implant surface by coating its surface with different materials including functionally graded materials (FGM). On the other hand, the effect of coating the FGM dental implant with a homogenous material has not been studied yet. The main goal of this work is to compare the biomechanical behavior of three types of dental implant models. Three dimensional models are created. The first model is a homogenous dental implant with a homogenous coating material. The second model represents a homogenous dental implant with a FGM coating and. the third model is a functionally graded implant with a homogenous coating material. The FGM implant with homogenous coating appears as the most suitable model. It reduces the bone stress on cancellous bone by 4.6 % and by 6.5 % on cortical bone compared to homogenous implant with homogenous coating. This leads to reduction of bone stress shielding as well as reduction of the aseptic loosening of bone/implant/coating interfaces which increase the life time of the implant.

Kurzfassung

Trotz ihres geprüften Nachweises zur Förderung der Osseointegration, zeigen Titan und seine Legierungen auch andere bestimmte Eigenschaften als optimale Dentalimplantate. Titan und seine geeignete Legierungen haben eine höhere Steifigkeit als menschliche Knochen. Aus diesem Grund absorbieren Dentalimplantate aus solchen Materialien die meisten Kaukräfte. Dies kann zu einem Phänomen führen, das als Spannungsschutz bezüglich des umgebenden Knochens bezeichnet wird. Variierende Biokeramiken wurden produziert und in verschiedenen Implantaten verwendet, und zwar aufgrund ihres exzellenten biologischen Verhaltens. Aufgrund ihrer geringen mechanischen Festigkeit, wurden dennoch nur wenige dieser Materialien in klinischen Anwendungen, besonders in Implantaten, die geringen Kräften ausgesetzt sind, eingesetzt. Nur wenig wurde bisher über Forschung zum Design von Dentalimplantaten aus funktionsgradierten Werkstoffen berichtet. Dennoch haben viele Wissenschaftler die Auswirkung hinsichtlich einer Verbesserung der Dentalimplantatoberfläche durch Beschichtung der Oberfläche mit verschiedenen Materialien untersucht, einschließlich funktionsgradierten Werkstoffen (Functionally Graded Materials (FGM)). Andererseits wurde die Auswirkung der Beschichtung von FGM-Dentalimplantaten mit einem homogenen Beschichtungsmaterial bisher noch nicht untersucht. Das Hauptziel dieser Arbeit besteht darin, die verschiedenen biomechanischen Verhalten dreier Arten von Implantatmodellen zu vergleichen. Hierzu wurden dreidimensionale Modelle generiert. Das erste Modell ist ein homogenes Dentalimplantat mit einem homogenen Beschichtungsmaterial. Das zweite Model ist ein homogenes Dentalimplantat mit einer FGM-Beschichtung. Im dritten Modell ist ein funktionsgradiertes Dentalimplantat mit einem homogenen Beschichtungsmaterial berücksichtigt. Das FGM-Implantat mit der homogenen Beschichtung stellte sich als das bestgeeignetste Modell heraus. Dadurch reduziert sich die Knochenspannung in der Spongiosa um 4,6 % und im kortikalen Knochen um 6,5 % im Vergleich zum homogenen Implantat mit einer homogenen Beschichtung. Dies führt zu einer Abnahme des Knochenspannungsschutzes sowie zu einer Reduzierung des aseptischen Lockerns der Knochen/Implantat/Beschichtungs-Grenzflächen, was die Lebensdauer des Implantates erhöht.
