Determination of stress distribution on periodontal ligament and alveolar bone by various tooth movements – A 3D FEM study

Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stress distribution on the maxillary central incisors by various tooth movements using three-dimensional finite element modeling with varying periodontal ligament (PDL) thickness and different alveolar bone height (at the apex and alveolar crest). M...
