Abstract:Background: Occlusal loads are always present though not widely considered in orthodontic treatments. Applied force systems are analyzed in detail and taught but their interaction with occlusal force is oftentimes ignored. Numeric evaluation of this combination by finite element method is the main goal of this research. Objectives: The present study has implemented FEA to investigate the effect of orthodontic force application on the tooth-periodontiumalveolar bone system. Materials and Methods: A 3D model of … Show more
