Abstract

Objective To construct three-dimensional finite element model of normal cranio-maxillofacial bones and to analyse biomechanical feature of the maxilla. Methods Based on the data of spiral CT scan from a normal male, three-dimensional finite element model of cranio -maxillofacial bones was constructed by digital image transfer and software of MedGraphics and ANSYS 8.0. The normal occlusal forces were simulated to observe the stress distribution and deviation of the maxilla. Results Three-dimensional finite e...
