Abstract
We investigated the stress conditions and growth deformation behaviors in the dental roots of three teeth mounted with the crown bridge using the growth strain method. The growth analysis of these analytical models was determined by applying two-dimensional finite element method. At first, criterion parameters of alveolar bone and dentin were defined by the mean value of strain energy density in each total element. Next, growth strain analysis of the each analysis model was performed under the growth criterion parameters of the alveolar bone and dentin. Our findings showed the final shape of the tooth with the crown bridge was remodeling so that bone absorption was hard to occur on the dental roots.
