An investigation into the importance of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone as supporting structures in finite element studies

Abstract: Many finite element analyses studies have been published in the dental literature. Some of these have analysed just the crown of the tooth, others have included part or all of the root, while others have included the supporting periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. The aim of this study was to examine which of the supporting structures was important to the model when analysing the stress distribution within a tooth. A two-dimensional plane strain finite element model of a lower second pre-molar was developed… Show more

“…Contrary to our results, Rees et al 4,14,[33][34][35] proposed that the sampling horizontal planes were chosen at 1.1 ㎜ above the CEJ among the buccal cervical region because an initial pilot study showed this to be the position of maximum stress concentration. Despite their findings, the results of their study must be interpreted with a certain amount of caution.…”

“…All FE models contained a periodontal ligament and cortical and medullar bone, since it has been suggested that the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone should be considered in the FEA of teeth. 36 The load was applied in two areas to try and simulate the clinical force of mastication. 37 The placement of an endodontic post creates an unnaturally restored structure, since the root canal space is filled with a material that is unlike pulp with regard to stiffness.…”

“…The extent of stress of a cervical lesion, as shown by one study 7) , is directly related to the area of the periodontal ligament and the amount of tooth mobility under loading. Another study also showed that the lesions were increased as the loads on the tooth moved further away from the long axis 8) .…”

“…Three dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) stress analysis is a particularly useful method for examining the stress distribution in teeth because it can cope with the complex geometric shape of a tooth and the large variations in the physical properties of the materials which make up a tooth and its supporting structures 7) . The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of composite resins with different elastic modulus, cavity modification and occlusal loading condition on the stress distribution of the restored notch-shaped NCCL using 3D FE analysis.…”
