LOPEZ, Clara I.; MORENO, Juan C.  and  PINILLOS, Julio C.. Comparison between two design methods implants, based on reverse engineering, design and engineering technologies, BIOCAD/CAD/CAE. Ing. compet. [online]. 2014, vol.16, n.1, pp.61-68. ISSN 0123-3033.

The main objective of this research work was to make a comparison between two methods used for design and biomechanical assessment of dental implants.. The first method is based on integration of an imaging technique used in diagnosis of tomographic images applied to 3D bone model reconstruction with reverse engineering software tools implemented on engineering applications. In the second method a specimen of jaw modeled in CAD (Computer Aided Design) software used to implant design was implemented, then a static simulation biomechanics was performed in a CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) environment, applying elementary insertion torque loads at the bone-implant interface. Simulations Analysis were performed for both methods, using the same evaluation criteria. Appropriate insertion torque values were confirmed with simulations as appropriate to maintain a proper relationship at the bone-implant interface. The results obtained using each method were analyzed and compared to determine the effect on appropriate integration of BioCAD imaging techniques and articulation with Technologies CAD and CAE

Keywords : BIO-CAD; CAE; implant design method; imaging technique; reverse engineering.
