Analysis of the comparative evaluation of efficacy of three different loops for bodily protraction of mandibular molar – a finite element analysis

et al.

Abstract: Objectives This study aimed to compare three different loops (T loop, Cherry loop, and Open helical loop) and optimal tip back angle (10°, 15°, 20°) for protraction of mandibular second molar using Finite Element Model (FEM). Materials and Methods A CBCT scan of a 20-year-old patient was recorded. It was converted into a CAD file and then into a FEM. A FEM model developed was used to find out the efficacy of the loops and optimal tip-back angles. Displacement of the molar was measured at four reference point… Show more
