3D Structure-guided Network for Tooth Alignment in 2D Photograph [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Orthodontics focuses on rectifying misaligned teeth (i.e., malocclusions), affecting both masticatory function and aesthetics. However, orthodontic treatment often involves complex, lengthy procedures. As such, generating a 2D photograph depicting aligned teeth prior to orthodontic treatment is crucial for effective dentist-patient communication and ...

Brazilian Dental Science, 2019 The masticatory function is one of the most complex neuropsychological mechanisms in human motor performance and it depends on several factors, such as bite force, muscle coordination, morphology, and number of teeth in occlusion.

On the Decomposition of Forces [PDF]
THEORETICAL & APPLIED MECHANICS LETTERS,4, 043001, 2014, 2018 We show that any continuously differentiable force is decomposed into the sum of a Rayleigh force and a gyroscopic force. We also extend this result to piecewise continuously differentiable forces. Our result improves the result on the decomposition of forces in a book by David Merkin and further extends it to piecewise continuously differentiable ...

Stress distribution in the cervical region of an upper central incisor in a 3D finite element model
Brazilian Oral Research, 2009 The aim of this study was to evaluate the stress distribution in the cervical region of a sound upper central incisor in two clinical situations, standard and maximum masticatory forces, by means of a 3D model with the highest possible level of fidelity ...

The importance of elevated masticatory forces on the stability of maxillary expansion [PDF]
Journal of Dentofacial Anomalies and Orthodontics, 2015 What have our young patients eaten in the past 24 hours? Probably cooked, prepared, or even finely chopped foods, that require limited masticatory action compared to what our craniofacial muscles are used to.The impact of masticatory hypofunctioning on craniofacial muscle development has been discussed in paleoanthropology studies and experimental ...
