Comparative stress analysis of delayed and immediate loading of a single implant in an edentulous maxilla model

Stress distribution in peri-implant bone in an edentulous maxilla following delayed and immediate loading implant and the effect of implant length on the maximum stress were evaluated by using two kinds of finite element analyses. A threaded implant was loaded with a 100 N vertical force, either imm...
