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...

description | 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 orthodontic model was made of photoelastic epoxy resin. Six combinations of three retraction hook lengths and two posterior Temporary skeletal anchorage devices (TAD) positions were established. Stress was applied through an elastic chain for each of the combinations. Digital photoelastic stress analysis measured the compression, tensional stress, and direction around the tooth root. Using this novel photoelastic model, we found that the distribution of compressional and tensional stress during the retraction of the maxillary dentition was significantly influenced by the position of the TAD and the length of the retraction hook. |
