Research Abstract |
In order to determine the optimum orthodontic force, force magnitude and the tooth movement were investigated. The forces were finally determined on a semiquantitative level. Then statistically significant correlation between trabecular bone density and tooth movement was found. Subsequently 3D finite element model were constructed from micro CT images. Because of the complexity of alveolar bone morphometric evaluation after the tooth movement, it is not easy to make the finite element models. The study is now in process.
