Digital Photoelastic Analysis of TAD-Supported Maxillary Arch Distalization

The objective of this study was to determine whether the distribution of compressional and tensional stress around tooth roots is influenced by the position of a temporary anchorage device and the length of the retraction hook during the distalization of the maxillary dentition. A photoelastic ortho...
