[PMID: 38920891 PMCID: PMC11202809 DOI: 10.3390/dj12060190] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
This numerical analysis, by employing Tresca and Von Mises failure criteria, assessed the biomechanical behavior of a trabecular bone component subjected to 0.6, 1.2, and 2.4 N orthodontic forces under five movements (intrusion, extrusion, tipping, rotation, and translation) and during a gradual horizontal periodontal breakdown (0-8 mm). Additionally, they assessed the changes produced by bone loss, and the ischemic and resorptive risks. The analysis employed eighty-one models of nine patients in 405 simulations. Both failure criteria showed similar qualitative results, with Tresca being quantitatively higher by 1.09-1.21. No qualitative differences were seen between the three orthodontic loads. Quantitatively, a doubling (1.2 N) and quadrupling (2.4 N) were visible when compared to 0.6 N. Rotation and translation followed by tipping are the most stressful, especially for a reduced periodontium, prone to higher ischemic and resorptive risks. In an intact periodontium, 1.2 N can be safely applied but only in a reduced periodontium for extrusion and intrusion. More than 0.6 N is prone to increasing ischemic and resorptive risks for the other three movements. In an intact periodontium, stress spreads in the entire trabecular structure. In a reduced periodontium, stress concentrates (after a 4 mm loss-marker for the stress change distribution) and increases around the cervical third of the remaining alveolar socket.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the functional load capacity of the periodontal ligament (PDL) in a full arch maxilla and mandible model using a numerical simulation. The goal was to determine the functional load pattern in multi- and single-rooted teeth with full and reduced periodontal support. CBCT data were used to create 3D models of a maxilla and mandible. The DICOM dataset was used to create a CAD model. For a precise description of the surfaces of each structure (enamel, dentin, cementum, pulp, PDL, gingiva, bone), each tooth was segmented separately, and the biomechanical characteristics were considered. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software computed the biomechanical behavior of the stepwise increased force of 700 N in the cranial and 350 N in the ventral direction of the muscle approach of the masseter muscle. The periodontal attachment (cementum-PDL-bone contact) was subsequently reduced in 1 mm increments, and the simulation was repeated. Quantitative (pressure, tension, and deformation) and qualitative (color-coded images) data were recorded and descriptively analyzed. The teeth with the highest load capacities were the upper and lower molars (0.4-0.6 MPa), followed by the premolars (0.4-0.5 MPa) and canines (0.3-0.4 MPa) when vertically loaded. Qualitative data showed that the areas with the highest stress in the PDL were single-rooted teeth in the cervical and apical area and molars in the cervical and apical area in addition to the furcation roof. In both single- and multi-rooted teeth, the gradual reduction in bone levels caused an increase in the load on the remaining PDL. Cervical and apical areas, as well as the furcation roof, are the zones with the highest functional stress. The greater the bone loss, the higher the mechanical load on the residual periodontal supporting structures.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:1964.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Herein we used numerical analysis to study different biomechanical behaviors of mandibular bone subjected to 0.6 N, 1.2 N, and 2.4 N orthodontic loads during 0-8 mm periodontal breakdown using the Tresca failure criterion. Additionally, correlations with earlier FEA reports found potential ischemic and resorptive risks. Materials and Methods: Eighty-one models (nine patients) and 243 simulations (intrusion, extrusion, rotation, tipping, and translation) were analyzed. Results: Intrusion and extrusion displayed after 4 mm bone loss showed extended stress display in the apical and middle third alveolar sockets, showing higher ischemic and resorptive risks for 0.6 N. Rotation, translation, and tipping displayed the highest stress amounts, and cervical-third stress with higher ischemic and resorptive risks after 4 mm loss for 0.6 N. Conclusions: Quantitatively, rotation, translation, and tipping are the most stressful movements. All three applied forces produced similar stress-display areas for all movements and bone levels. The stress doubled for 1.2 N and quadrupled for 2.4 N when compared with 0.6 N. The differences between the three loads consisted of the stress amounts displayed in color-coded areas, while their location and extension remained constant. Since the MHP was exceeded, a reduction in the applied force to under 0.6 N (after 4 mm of bone loss) is recommended for reducing ischemic and resorptive risks. The stress-display pattern correlated with horizontal periodontal-breakdown simulations.

Abstract
This finite elements analysis (FEA) assessed the accuracy of maximum shear stress criteria (Tresca) in the study of orthodontic internal surface resorption and the absorption-dissipation ability of dental tissues. The present study was conducted over eighty-one models totaling 324 simulations with various bone loss levels (0-8 mm), where 0.6 N and 1.2 N were applied in the intrusion, extrusion, rotation, tipping, and translation movements. Tresca criteria displayed localized high-stress areas prone to resorption for all situations, better visible in the dentine component. The internal resorptive risks are less than external ones, seeming to increase with the progression of the periodontal breakdown, especially after 4 mm. The internal and external surface high-stress areas are strictly correlated. The qualitative stress display for both forces was almost similar. The rotation and tipping displayed the highest resorptive risks for the pulp chamber, decreasing with bone loss. The resorptive risks seem to increase along with the progression of periodontal breakdown if the same applied force is kept. The dentine resemblance to ductile based on its high absorption-dissipation ability seems correct. Tresca seems to supply a better predictability of the prone-to-resorption areas than the other failure criteria.

Abstract
This Finite Elements Analysis (FEA) assessed the accuracy of Tresca failure criteria (maximum shear stress) for the study of external root resorption. Additionally, the tooth absorption-dissipation ability was assessed. Overall, 81 models of the second mandibular premolar, out of a total of 324 simulations, were involved. Five orthodontic movements (intrusion, extrusion, rotation, translation, and tipping) were simulated under 0.6 N and 1.2 N in a horizontal progressive periodontal breakdown simulation of 0-8 mm. In all simulations, Tresca criteria accurately displayed the localized areas of maximum stress prone to external resorption risks, seeming to be adequate for the study of the resorptive process. The localized areas were better displayed in the radicular dentine-cementum component than in the entire tooth structure. The rotation and translation seem prone to a higher risk of external root resorption after 4 mm of loss. The resorptive risks seem to increase along with the progression of periodontal breakdown if the same amount of applied force is guarded. The localized resorption-prone areas follow the progression of bone loss. The two light forces displayed similar extensions of maximum stress areas. The stress displayed in the coronal dentine decreases along with the progression of bone loss. The absorption-dissipation ability of the tooth is about 87.99-97.99% of the stress.
