A finite element analysis was carried out to analyse the stress variations in a mandibular posterior fixed partial denture (FPD), made of recast nickel-chromium alloy. A two dimensional finite element model was developed and then analysed with STAAD III/ISDS program with an occlusal load of 1 kg applied to the casting surface. The analysis revealed that the connectors experienced maximum stresses and the generated stress values decreased within the fixed partial denture made of recast Ni-Cr alloy. It seemed unlikely that FPD inspite of being made of recast alloy might fail before the other tissue components show signs of degeneration thus establishing the potential for recycling the Ni-Cr alloy in actual dental practice.
对由重铸镍铬合金制成的下颌后牙固定局部义齿(FPD)的应力变化进行了有限元分析。建立了二维有限元模型,然后使用STAAD III/ISDS程序进行分析,在铸件表面施加1kg的咬合负荷。分析表明,连接体承受的应力最大,在由重铸镍铬合金制成的固定局部义齿中,产生的应力值会降低。尽管是由重铸合金制成,但FPD似乎不太可能在其他组织成分出现退化迹象之前就失效,从而确立了在实际牙科实践中回收镍铬合金的可能性。
