A new method for the treatment of unilateral posterior cross-bite: a three-dimensional finite element stress analysis study
Abstract Background Stress relieving corticoto mies during the treatment of maxillary expansion are needed in adult patients. Methods Three-dimensional (3D) finite element model was prepared, and finite element analysis was processed to evaluate the stress distributions within the skull and maxillar...
