Currently, controversy persists over whether dental implant restoration exacerbates or alleviates temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). This study aimed to analyze the impact of on biomechanics joint (TMJ) in patients with posterior tooth loss. Ten healthy volunteers (Control group) and twenty loss (preoperative Pre group postoperative Post were recruited. Three-dimensional maxillofacial models maxilla, mandible, dentition, articular discs reconstructed. The von Mises, contact, tensile stresses TMJ analyzed. Before restoration, considerably higher than those Control group, especially missing side. After decreased significantly, a near-symmetrical distribution. Additionally, before TMD had highest TMJ, followed by without TMD, lowest. stress magnitudes returned normal range. In summary, can significantly improve asymmetric distribution TMJs, substantially reduce excessive caused loss, alleviate eliminate symptoms related TMDs.
