von Mises stress in peri-implant bone in finite element models of the single-standard implant-supported crown (AC), a single short implant-supported crown (AT), and short implant-supported splinted restorations (B) with the internal trichannel connection (AC3V, AC3O, AT3V, AT3O, B3V, and B3O) under vertical (V) and oblique (O) loading.
