Biomechanical behavior of three‐dimensional bioactive composite constructs on extraction socket remodeling

Loss of mechanostimulation leads to dimensional alterations in the extraction socket. The study aims to use three‐dimensional spatial stimulation of the socket wall to assess if bioactive composite constructs could generate mechanostimulative activity.Analysis of the biomechanical behavior of the three‐dimensional bioactive composite constructs was done in a model created using ANSYS, and mechanical properties were assessed using finite element analysis.Total deformation on the mandible was higher in alginate bioglass and chitosan alginate bioglass than gelatin. Bioglass composites were capable of generating a higher strain on the surrounding alveolar bone than gelatin. The maximum principal elastic strain and equivalent (von Mises) stress of chitosan and bioglass were higher than those of gelatin.Differential stress/strain generated on the alveolar bone with a three‐dimensional approach from early stages of remodeling will have a profound effect on the reduction of alveolar bone loss.
