A Further Finite Element Stress Analysis of Angled Abutments for an Implant Placed in the Anterior Maxilla

Figure 2

The general patterns for stress distribution were similar for simplified patient-specific models (a) and simplified models (b). Distribution of maximum von Mises stress (MPa) in cortical bone (c, d) and cancellous bone (e, f) for simplified patient-specific models and simplified models, respectively. Blue to red colors represent stress values from lower to higher.
