Abstract (EN): Based on deformation energy methods a topology optimization model was developed for predicting bone density distribution on the mandible bone due the insertion of dental implants. The bone structure is assumed to be a self-optimizing anisotropic biological material which maximizes its own structural stiffness. A recently developed mathematical law for the biologic behaviour of the bone anisotropic material is assumed, based on experimental data available in the literature. This mathematical law permits to correlate the bone density with the obtained level of stress. The numerical method used in the analysis is the Natural Neighbour Radial Point Interpolator Method (NNRPIM), an efficient and flexible meshless method, presenting various advantages in the topologic analysis comparing with other numerical methods such as the Finite Element Method.
