Finite Element Analysis (FEA) as a Decisive Tool for Study of Force Distribution in Dentistry
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Dental Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
Abstract: The FEM is basically a numerical method for solving a differential equation. The geometric model of the structure is built and subdivided into small elements. FEA of simulated traumatic loads can be used to understand the biomechanics of fracture. FEA has various advantages compared with studies on real models. The experiments are repeatable, there are no ethical considerations and the study designs may be modified and changed as per the requirement equations are then solved using a computer. In endodontics, using the FEM, the parameters of the geometry of the structure such as the post design, material properties, along with the magnitude and direction of the load can be changed easily in simulation, which is a significant advantage over experimental methods. Keywords: endodontics, files, finite element analysis (FEA)
