Finite Element Analysis of an Implant-Supported FDP with Different Connector Heights

Finite Element Analysis of an Implant-Supported FDP with Different Connector Heights

All-ceramic fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) tend to fracture in the connector areas, due to the concentration of tensile stresses. This study aimed to evaluate the role of connector height on the stress distribution of a posterior three-unit implant-supported all-ceramic FDP using finite element anal...
