Novel Biomodel and Biosimulation to demonstrate the need for resorption in the case of edentulism, does we need bone augmentation for implant or it is mostly a futile procedure?
Post extraction bone resorption is an eventual process that affect the alveolar processes to various extents. We tried to emulate the resorption of the alveolar process depending upon the stiffness of a dentulous model. Resorption is a perquisite to maintain healthy bone and it must be understood as a more complicated process that just attribute it to the loss of loading transmitted to the alveolar process vis teeth. This is the first time such a model had been presented. This model is based upon the model of jaw weakening caused by the teeth presence with sound healthy PD ligaments components. The current model is of retrograde validation model as the real model is already show resorption as an eventual result of edentulism whether partial or complete. It had shown clearly the importance of the soft teeth attachment to the alveolar process as a macro-mechanical feature to provide excellent stiffness reduction.
