“…Various values for the Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio of the trabecular bone in the anterior mandibular region were reported in literature: 1.37 GPa and 0.3 [23,24], 1.5 GPa and 0.29 [25], 2.5 GPa and 0.3 [26]. Additionally, different materials used as a replica for mandibular bone in vitro study were reported: acrylic resin, epoxy resin, polyurethane resin, polystyrene resin [16,19,27,28]. For this study, the self-curing acrylic resin used had a volumetric ratio of 3 parts powder to 1.5 parts of liquid, and presented elastic characteristics similar to those of the spongy bone from the anterior region of the mandible, as well as an average viscosity.…”
