It is not always possible to carry out many
studies planned in all medical fields including dentistry
due to ethical reasons, high costs and technical
impossibilities. Finite elements methods (FEM), which
has been used for many years in the field of engineering,
has prevented such impossibilities for more than 40
years in dentistry and medicine, and enables complex
researches that are quite difficult to perform under
normal conditions, in a computer environment. Finite
elements methods can bring fast and easy solutions to
many problems in the field of health, especially in
dental implantology, including strength, stress and
material science, including engineering. Finite elements
methods provides fast and reliable results on the
subjects studied, but it is an important guide for many
clinical studies. In this review, it is aimed to obtain
general information about the finite element stress
analysis method and to examine the studies on its
usability and reliability in the field of dental
implantology.
