(a) A mandible section, containing an implant, as seen from above. The mandible section is subjected to bending in the horizontal plane. The implant makes the mandible section stiffer, and the strains are reduced. (b) A mandible section containing an implant. The mandible section is subjected to bending in a vertical plane. The implant makes the mandible section stiffer, and the strains are reduced.
