Effect of Denture Base Stiffness on Stress Redistribution in an Idealized Complete-Denture Model Under Static Bilateral Clenching: A Finite Element Analysis
Compared rigid and flexible denture base material conditions in an idealized maxillomandibular finite element (FE) model at the final static bilateral clenching step, the findings do not establish clinical adaptation, contact pressure, tissue protection, deformation, durability, or performance in immediate dentures.
