The aim of this study was to evaluate the microstrain exhibited by bone around immediately loaded, platform-switched, and non-platform-switched implants under vertical and angled loading using a finite element analysis (FEA) and also to evaluate whether platform-switched implants evoke a better response than non-platform-switched implants on a mechanical basis.
