This book is a guide for both clinicians and researchers based on the intricate relationship between biomechanics and dental implant success. The book begins by exploring the fundamental principles of biomechanics, including stress, strain, and bone adaptation. This knowledge is essential for understanding the forces acting on dental implants and the subsequent response of the surrounding bone tissue. The intricacies of CBCT technology, from image acquisition to analysis techniques, and its advantages and limitations in comparison to other imaging modalities are discussed to provide practical guidelines for selecting appropriate imaging protocols. The book helps bridges the gap between laboratory research and clinical practice, by presenting case studies demonstrating the clinical applications of CBCT-guided implant planning, and discusses the impact of 3D bone assessment on treatment outcomes. Furthermore, it explores emerging trends in CBCT technology and future directions in the field of dental implant biomechanics.
