Abstract

A force basically means a push or pull upon an object resulting from that object’s interaction with any other object. In dentistry, force per se is stress acting on any dental material or the dental tissue. Types of Stress includes Compressive stress, Tensile stress and Shear stress. Types of Failure mechanism related to stress in dental implant include Fatigue failure, Stress concentration failure, Bending or torsional failure. In order to prevent implant failure and complications related to dental implants, one must understand the types of forces acting and their effect on dental implants.
