In Silico Finite Element Analysis of Implant‐Supported CAD‐CAM Resin Composite Crowns

Abstract

Purpose

The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanical behavior of an implant-supported crown made using computer-aided design and computer aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) resin composite (RC) blocks in the posterior region.

Material and methods

Four commercially available CAD-CAM RC blocks were used in this study: Cerasmart 300 (CS300; GC, Tokyo, Japan), Katana Avencia P Block (KAP; Kuraray Noritake Dental, Niigata, Japan); KZR HR3 Gamma Theta (HR3; Yamakin, Osaka, Japan), and Estelite P block (ESP; Tokuyama Dental, Tokyo, Japan). Katana Zirconia STML (ST; Kuraray Noritake Dental) was used as the control group. The elastic moduli of each material were determined by a three-point bending test. After the CAD models were designed, two different loading scenarios (oblique, vertical) were created. 3D finite element analysis was conducted with the prepared models.

Results

The elastic modulus of the material utilized for the implant restorations did not cause any change in the stresses transmitted to the implant or peripheral bone. An important difference was detected in the abutment–crown junction area. The minimum von Mises value at the abutment-crown interface was obtained in ST, which has the closest elastic modulus to the titanium abutment.

Conclusions

The 3D finite element model designed in this study was used to demonstrate that implant-supported crowns fabricated with four different CAD-CAM RCs showed no critical stress concentrations in the bone or implant under all loading conditions. These results suggest that CAD-CAM RC blocks could be used as an alternative material for implant-supported restorations in the posterior region in terms of stress distribution.
