An implant supported overdenture is exposed to several types of axial and nonaxial stresses, including the masticatory forces. The resultant of these forces is transferred through the superstructure and the attachments to the implants and may lead to concentration of stresses in the different parts of the implants .
Biomechanical studies , , have exhibited that the implants overload is the main factor responsible for bone resorption. these studies have showed the biomechanical characteristics of implants and the prosthesis and engineering tools may be used to estimate and quantify the stress on implants and the deformations of prosthetic components. stress analysis of dental structures has been a topic of interest with an objective of determining
