Comments Regarding my Tooth Force Analysis Work: This work is a natural extension of my ongoing study of microfluidic phenomena.
At one time I became interested in learning something about tooth brush bristle induced fluid shear and pressure forces exerted on teeth. To examine this, I made the simplest possible finite element analysis ( FEA ) model that I could think of. My purpose was not to develop a model of high accuracy, but to merely get a feeling about how the forces might vary across different parts of a tooth when bristles are moving the adjacent fluid. The resultant model begins the telling of an interesting story. Go Back a Page Return to Home Page |
