Application of the Finite Element Method in Implant Dentistry
Series: Advanced Topics in Science and Technology in China

Gives the essential theoretical foundation needed by novices from

dental or engineering backgrounds
Shows how both the implant dentist and designer can benefit from
finite element analysis
Provides step-by-step instructions on how to use commercial FEA
software for dental implants
Helps you perform your own finite element analysis in designing
dental implants

Part of the new series Advanced Topics in Science and Technology in China, this book
creates the theoretical foundation that novices need to perform the finite element
method in implant dentistry. It clearly shows how both the implant dentist and the
2008, XIII, 137 p. designer can benefit from finite element analysis.

The first part explains the underlying mathematical theory of the finite element method
Printed book in terms that readers from a dental background can easily understand. Then, youre
introduced to implant dentistry from an engineering perspective.
