Influence of Length and Diameter of Implants Associated With Distal Extension Removable Partial Dentures

Abstract

Increasing the length of the implant had a great influence on the decrease of displacement and von Mises tension values. Increasing the diameter of the implant had a great influence on the decrease of von Mises tension values, but did not influence the displacement values. According to the results of this study, it is a good choice to use the greater and larger implant possible in the association between implant and distal extension removable partial denture.
