Mathematical modelling is being used in modern dentistry to solve a wide range of scientific problems. The models allow one to predict and estimate the medical intervention impact during the calculations of stress-strain state of prostheses and medical devices. In the present research a mathematical model of the lower jaw, considering the individual characteristics of the geometry, properties of bone tissue and activity of the patient’s mastication muscles using the finite element method is proposed. The work provides an example of determining the operational characteristics of dentoalveolar structures. The analysis of displacements, tensions, and deformations for a particular tooth as well as the selection of the implant diameter were presented as results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
