Stress distribution in the temporomandibular joint after mandibular protraction: A 3-dimensional finite element method study. Part 1
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 06/22/09
Gupta A et al. - The results suggest that, on mandibular protraction, the mandibular condyle experiences tensile stresses in the posterosuperior aspect that might help explain condylar growth in this direction. Similarly, on the glenoid fossa, tensile stresses are created in the region of posterior connective tissues; this might be correlated with the increased cellular activity in this region.
