<p>ISO 14801:2003 specifies a method of fatigue testing of single-post endosseous dental implants of the transmucosal type. It is most useful for comparing endosseous dental implants of different designs or sizes.</p>
<p>While it simulates the functional loading of an endosseous dental implant body and its premanufactured prosthetic components under worst-case conditions, ISO 14801:2003 is not applicable for predicting the <i>in vivo </i>performance of an endosseous dental implant or prosthesis, particularly if multiple endosseous dental implants are used for a prosthesis.</p>
