Three-dimensional orthodontic force measurements.

INTRODUCTION Until recently, much of the orthodontic biomechanics literature was restricted to 2-dimensional experimental studies and, more recently, to assumption-based 3-dimensional computer modeling. There is little evidence in the literature regarding 3-dimensional experimental measurements and analysis of orthodontic force systems. METHODS The purpose of this study was the design, constr...

Three-dimensional deformation of orthodontic brackets

Braces are used by orthodontists to correct the misalignment of teeth in the mouth. Archwire rotation is a particular procedure used to correct tooth inclination. Wire rotation can result in deformation to the orthodontic brackets, and an orthodontic torque simulator has been designed to examine this wire-bracket interaction. An optical technique has been employed to measure the deformation due...
