Finite Element Analysis for Upper Molar Distalization

Orthodontic literature indicates that upper molar distalisation is a tipping and extrusion movement, combined with mesio-buccal rotation and buccaly-crown torque, depending on the distalisers used. FEM (finite element method) allow a simulation of force systems which can determine bodily distal mola...
