The Hydrostatic Pressure Distribution in the Periodontal Ligament and the Risk of Root Resorption—A Finite Element Method (FEM) Study on the Nonlinear Innovative Model
Excessive orthodontic force can induce inflammatory tooth root resorption due to sustained high stresses within the periodontal ligament (PDL). This study aimed to analyze the PDL pressures during upper incisor retraction using the en masse method with TISAD. The finite element method (FEM) ensured...
