Determination of the compressive modulus of elasticity of periodontal ligament derived from human first premolars

Purpose: There are two commonly cited modulus of elasticity of the human periodontal ligament (EPDL), i.e., 6.89 ✕ 10−5 GPa (E1) and 6.89 ✕ 10−2 GPa (E2), which are exactly 1000-fold different from each other. This study aims to clarify the ambiguity of the two EPDL used for simulations and determin...
