Many people may suffer from missing a tooth or teeth for different reasons. Dental implants are one of the primary solutions which are being used increasingly in the last few decades. In the first stage of the usual procedure, the surgeon uses a drill to create a socket into the jaw bone; then, in the next step, the implant, which is a fine metal screw most of the time, will be inserted into the pre-drilled socket. This study investigates the biomechanical behaviors of a new dental implant which has a different performance and thread design. The strength of the new implant has been assessed under a daily loading through a series of experimental tests using dummy foam block substitute to the natural human jawbone. The feature of the new design was modified to introduce a new dental implant for brittle jawbones. The study was closely focusing on the design criteria of the implant applicable for D3-D4 zones of the jaw bone.
