- Abstract
Dental implants are becoming an increasingly important part of modern dental treatment. Developing an optimal implant surface design can improve osseointegration. Promising to increase the rate of osseointegration is the use of extracorporeal shock wave therapy, which has proven itself for the treatment of fractures, bone defects, and bone tissue regeneration during surgery and arthroplasty. This work aims at a numerical investigation of the effects of low-energy shock wave therapy of various intensities on the mechanical behavior of dental implants and surrounding bone tissues, taking into account the physiological characteristics in the area of dental implant placement. Modeling was carried out using the method of movable cellular automata. The results of computer simulation showed that the conditions for the regeneration of bone tissues at the near-contact zone with the implant of the jaw segment are created by a shock wave with intensity greater than 0.1 mJ/mm2.
