Abstract

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the retention mechanism on the behavior of a mandibular implant-retained overdenture (IRO) during the simulation of mastication. Therefore, a complete three-dimensional finite element model of a mandible with its IRO was developed. MATE...
