in mesiodistal movement for the 5-mm implant-sup- ported crown of more than 50% when forces were di- rected to the distal marginal ridge and the distobuccal cusp tip. However, these mesiodistal displacements were reduced even further for the double-implant de- sign (Tables II through IV). The present study mea- sured displacement, which represents absolute movement as a result of all induced strains, and the study
