Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of static and dynamic loading on marginal bone reactions around osseointegrated implants: an animal experimental study.

TL;DR: Excessive dynamic loads cause crater-like bone defects lateral to osseointegrated implants, and less bone volume was present around the dynamically loaded in comparison with the statically loaded and the control implants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Angiogenesis in bone fracture healing: a bioregulatory model.

TL;DR: Numerical simulations of compromised healing situations showed that the establishment of a vascular network in response to angiogenic growth factors is a key factor in the healing process and a correct description of cell migration is shown to be essential to the prediction of realistic spatiotemporal tissue distribution patterns in the fracture callus.
Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of bone mechanical properties and implant fixation upon bone loading around oral implants.

TL;DR: Bone loading patterns in the vicinity of the implant seem to be very sensitive to bone elastic properties, so finite element models should be integrated correctly in numerical models of in vivo behaviour of oral implants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnitude and distribution of occlusal forces on oral implants supporting fixed prostheses: an in vivo study

TL;DR: In this study, insight is gained in the distribution and magnitude of occlusal forces on oral implants carrying fixed prostheses by in vivo quantification and qualification of these forces, which implies that not only the magnitude of the load but also its type (axial force or bending moment) will be registered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Morphological study of the proximal femur: a new method of geometrical assessment using 3-dimensional reverse engineering.

TL;DR: This study presents a new method of using computerized tomography images combined with the reverse engineering technique to obtain and analyse the three-dimensional inner and outer geometry of the proximal cadaveric femur.
