Tissue Engineering for Periodontal Ligament Regeneration: Biomechanical Specifications [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, American Society of
Mechanical Engineers, 2021, 143 (3), 2020 The periodontal biomechanical environment is very difficult to investigate. By the complex geometry and composition of the periodontal ligament, its mechanical behavior is very dependent on the type of loading (compressive vs. tensile loading; static vs. cyclic loading; uniaxial vs.
