Mechanical weakening of devitalized teeth: three‐dimensional Finite Element Analysis and prediction of tooth fracture

Abstract: The combined finite element method and the maximum principal stress analysis gave insight into the fracture mechanisms of teeth with two-surface composite restorations followed by root canal preparation. Removal of tooth tissue, despite its subsequent restoration with dental materials, weakened the tooth by changing the stress intensity and distribution through tooth structures. Access cavity preparation had the greatest influence on tooth strength whilst canal enlargement did not contribute to this process su… Show more

“…Consequently, as a disadvantage of this study we report the impossibility to perform in-vivo validation of the obtained results in the case of RAVM. However, since software tools used in this study have been previously validated and established as reliable in numerous examples [13][14][15][16]22,23], we assumed that calculated physical quantities were acceptable. To the best of our knowledge, there is no similar study in the literature that analyzed RAVM from the point of biomechanics.…”

“…In the recent literature, mechanical response and interaction of medical devices, human tissues and blood flow are commonly studied by using finite element method (FEM) or finite element analysis (FEA) [13][14][15][16]. FEA represents a cost-effective tool in situations where precise analysis and evaluation of physical quantities (such as stress, strain, displacements, velocity, temperature, etc.)…”
