Abstract

Objective: The aim of the study is to compare the effect of monolithic translucent zirconia ceramic (TZI) and monolithic lithium disilicate glass ceramic (LDS) restorative materials on stress distributions in implant components and surrounding bone tissues in implant-supported conometric single crown restorations with a conical connection system by using 3D finite element analysis.
 Methods: Restorations produced with two different all-ceramic materials using a conometric abutment and a conometric cap on the implant with a conical connection system were placed in the maxillary right second premolar region. 3D finite element analysis was used to examine the amount and distribution of stresses in implant components, in cortical and cancellous bone tissues surrounding the implant and in crowns under vertical and oblique loading. For the statistical analysis one-way ANOVA and independent samples t-test were used (p
