Location of implants in the interforaminal region of the mandible and the consequences for the design of the superstructure

The location and the number of implants to support an overdenture is of major importance for the superstructure design. Sometimes, jaw bone anatomy or posteriorly placed implants enforce the use of an angular bar to achieve a position above the alveolar ridge. Loads on such a bar may introduce a moment on the implants which can result in high bone stresses and eventually the loss of the implants.
This study on stress distribution in the bone around the implants in an edentulous mandible was performed using a three-dimensional finite element model. One model with two implants placed just anteriorly of the mental foramen and connected with an anteriorly placed bar, following the curvature of the alveolar ridge, was compared with two other designs. First with a similar model but now without a bar and secondly with a model with four implants connected with straight bars.
It is concluded that loading a bar, which is placed anteriorly of the interconnecting line between two implants, causes extremely large compressive and tensile stress concentrations in the bone around the implants. Therefore, in those cases, it is advised not to connect the implants or, in case a bar-clip attachment is preferred, to place additional implants in the frontal region.     

A re-evaluation of the distribution of the elastic meshwork within the periodontal ligament of the mouse

The elastic properties of the periodontal ligament have been attributed, in part, to oxytalan fibers, as no other types of elastic fibers are described there. It has been difficult to study the periodontal elastic meshwork by standard microscopic techniques because it is partially obscured by the adjacent periodontal ligament collagen fibers. Our study employed methods which either completely or partially removed mandibular molar periodontal ligament collagen fibers, exposing a previously undescribed periodontal elastic meshwork. The periodontal elastic meshwork was composed of many elastin lamellae containing both peripheral microfibrils of regular arrangement and central microfibrils of irregular arrangement, which could only be demonstrated in oxidized tissues. Peripheral, regularly arranged bundles of microfibrils resembled oxytalan fibers, which were often adherent to the border of the elastin lamella. Elastin lamellae containing irregular microfibrils resembled elaunin fibers. These fibers probably enclosed either blood vessels, nerves or collagen fiber bundles. Peripheral microfibrils attached elaunin to cementum, alveolar bone, blood vessels, and principal periodontal collagen fibers. Thus, the periodontal elastic meshwork is composed of both oxytalan and elaunin fibers. Microfibrils attach elaunin fibers to the adjacent non-elastic tissue and also form bundles which traverse the periodontal ligament space and are probably the oxytalan fibers demonstrable by light microscopic techniques. This meshwork of oxytalan and elaunin fibers probably contributes to tooth support and maintenance of periodontal homeostasis by dissipating chewing forces and maintaining patency of periodontal blood vessels.
