The level of von Mises stress of (a) whole components, (b) anterior and posterior retentive screws, (c) maximum principal stress of anterior and posterior mandible with different CMP-PRDs (P1, P2, P3, and P4) was analyzed by FEA under the clenching condition in the animal model. (Supplementary material Figure 4A, 4B and 4C showed higher resolution).
