Abstract:
Two-dimensional finite element stress analyses were employed to study the human mandible. Two models, three teeth loading conditions and three distributions of masticatory muscles are presented. Finite element analyses are compared with photoelastic experiments to indicate correspondence between both results. High stress concentrates in the mandibular angle, condylar region, retromolar area and dental orown.
