Photoelasticity Testing of Dental Implants

PROJECT DETAILS

  • Client: Seville Dentists Foundation
  • Date: 2017-2022
  • Technology: biomechanics, finite element, simulation, photoelasticity

INTRODUCTION

ICEMM has been collaborating with the Fundación de Dentistas de Sevilla since 2017 in the research for the improvement of dental implants to increase the comfort of use, reducing the interaction stresses between bone and implant and at the same time reducing the possible rejection by the patient.

ACTIVITIES

  • Definition of finite element models of bone-implant interaction.
  • Validation of finite element models of implants using photoelasticity techniques.
