Three free-end fixed osseointegrated prostheses models with various connection designs (ie, rigidly connected to an abutment tooth and an implant, rigidly connected to an implant and two abutment teeth, and rigidly connected to an implant and three abutment teeth) were studied. The stress values of the three models loaded with vertical, buccolingual, and linguobuccal directions at 30 ° angled to vertical axis forces were analyzed. When the fixed partial denture was connected to the three natural abutment teeth and an implant, the lowest levels of stress in the bone were noted.EnglishAll Open Access; Bronze Open AccessAlveolar ProcessBite ForceCementationCuspidDental AbutmentsDental Implantation, EndosseousDental ImplantsDental Occlusion, TraumaticDental Prosthesis DesignDental Prosthesis RetentionDental Prosthesis, Implant-SupportedDental Stress AnalysisDenture, Partial, FixedFinite Element AnalysisHumansIncisorJaw, Edentulous, PartiallyMandiblePeriodontal Ligamentarticlecanine toothcementationdental caredentureedentulousnessfinite element analysishumanincisorjawmandiblemasticationpathophysiologyperiodontal ligamentphysiologytooth implantationtooth occlusiontooth prosthesisArticle10.1097/00008505-200207000-00016
