Abstract | ||
In the 21st era, technological progressions challenged the dental professional to perform extremely risky and multifaceted procedures more reliably and harmless way using the finite element method (FEM) that can sim-ulate and analyze the dental structures. As orthodontic revolve about the forces so FEM is one of the most accurate tools for the researchers in this ground. This review highlights the use of the finite element method in orthodontics and craniofacial research. This stores the different researches performed by using the finite ele-ment model to study the growth of the cranial structure, biomechanical reaction to orthopedic forces, ortho-dontic tooth movement, orthognathic surgeries application, and orthodontic implants | ||
