Abstract: This study aimed to develop an algorithm for modelling bone loss defects in a given mandibular geometry, with a user-defined depth, width, place, and defect type. The algorithm was implemented using Grasshopper and models with different bone loss types and depths around a dental implant were built. The models were used in a finite element analysis (FEA) to predict the stresses in peri-implant bone. The FEA showed that the stresses in peri-implant bone depend primarily on the depth of bone loss, whereas the type of bone loss showed no major influence.
