402 20. BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS OF BONE TISSUE SURROUNDING DENTAL IMPLANTS

FIG. 20.12 Intersection of FEM and NNRPIM solutions using model 2.
The model considers only the influence of a mechanical stimulus. Thus, in the future, it would be interesting to use
an algorithm that would simultaneously combine bone cell dynamics with distinct loading scenarios.
