CEBRIAN CARRETERO, J.L.; CARRASCAL MORILLO, M.T.; VINCENT FRAILE, G. y ORTIZ DE ARTINANO, F.. Experimental Biomechanical Study of the Musculo-Skeletal Masticatory System: Applications to the Study of Osteosynthesis. Rev Esp Cirug Oral y Maxilofac [online]. 2009, vol.31, n.1, pp.39-45. ISSN 2173-9161.
The biomechanical behavior of the masticatory system is not well known. The mathematical models that have been developed to date are limited and experimental studies have not yet solved the problem of reproducing muscular forces and stress distributions in the internal mandibular structure. A static simulator of the masticatory system was developed in the present study and threedimensional photoelasticity was used to analyze stress distribution in several physiologic and pathologic situations. The results showed that the simulator and 3D photoelasticity were useful for studying interactions and ostheosynthesis materials used in daily clinical practice.
