Space closure using micro-implant and sliding mechanics：the three-dimensional finite element modeling and numerical analysis / 安徽医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

A volunteer was scanned by spiral CT,the Dicom format images were imported into Mimics software to reconstruct 3-D mandibular model,then optimized by Geomagic and meshed in Ansys software. A good geometric precise three-dimensional finite element model was constructed. The displacement of dentition was similar with clin-ical situation by computer.
