Construction of a three-dimensional finite element model of maxillary first molar and it′s supporting structures

Abstract: The finite element method (FEM) is a powerful computational tool for solving stress-strain problems; its ability to handle material inhomogeneity and complex shapes makes the FEM, the most suitable method for the analysis of internal stress levels in the tooth, periodontium, and alveolar bone. This article intends to explain the steps involved in the generation of a three-dimensional finite element model of tooth, periodontal ligament (PDL) and alveolar bone, as the procedure of modeling is most important beca… Show more

“…It has proved to be an adaptable, accurate, flexible and less time‐consuming tool for dental biomechanical study . In a 3D FEA model of a tooth‐periodontium system with complicated geometry, it is convenient to apply mechanical forces at any regions and in any directions . FEA has provided essential new knowledge for tooth restoration , prosthetic and orthodontic treatment , implant design , tooth fracture and periodontal trauma analysis, as well as the biomechanics of the mandibular system .…”

“…El MEF, también llamado modelo in silico , muestra diseños computarizados clínicos relevantes por la variedad de morfología y las propiedades físicas de las estructuras modeladas. Asimismo, permite una previsión más exacta y precisa del comportamiento clínico de las líneas de terminación junto a una corona de disilicato de litio 26 . El MEF aplicado por Doley en un primer molar inferior con oclusión equilibrada mostró una resistencia de 300 N a 450 N 27 ante la fuerza ejercida sobre toda la superficie oclusal.…”
