RESUMO
The finite element method (FEM) is applied for studying the hardness (H) and yield strength (Y) of dentin subjected to a nano-indentation process. The nano-indentation experiments were simulated with the ABAQUS finite element software package. This test, performed with a spherical indenter, was simulated by axisymmetric finite element analysis. The load versus displacement was calculated during loading-unloading sequence for different elastic modulus (E) and yield strength. Hardness and maximum principal compressive and tensile stresses were plotted for different elastic modulus depending on yield strength. The dentin was assumed to be isotropic, homogenous and elasto-plastic. The theoretical results outlined in this study were compared with the experimental works reported in the literature and then hardness and yield strength of dentin was estimated.

OBJECTIVES: The reliability and validity of the adhesive bond toughness of dentin/composite resin interfaces were studied from the standpoint of fracture mechanics. METHODS: The fracture toughness (KIC) and fracture energy (JIC) values of two different composite resins (Brilliant Dentin and P50) were determined by using single edge notch (SEN) specimens loaded in three point bending and the results were analyzed by the t-test method (p < 0.1). The fracture loads of dentin/composite resin interface with different initial crack lengths were obtained experimentally. The adhesive fracture energy (J(adh)), residual fracture energy (J(res)) and effective (total) fracture energy (J(eff)) for the symmetrical bimaterial (SBM) joint specimen for dentin/composite resin interfaces were calculated and the applied fracture energy (J(appl)) values under the mastication force were obtained for the axisymmetric tooth models. All numerical calculations were carried out by the finite element method and software programs were prepared according to fortran 77. RESULTS: The fracture toughness and energy values obtained experimentally for Brilliant Dentin were found to be higher than those for P50. It was seen that, calculated J values (J(adh) and J(res)++) changed with the crack length; but the effective fracture energy (J(eff)++) was independent of the crack length, as expected. The applied fracture energy (J(appl)) and effective fracture energy (J(eff)) are considerably smaller than the experimentally determined JIC values of composite resins. SIGNIFICANCE: The bonded interface tends to produce microscopic flaws which could act as critical stress risers promoting interfacial failures. The initiation and propagation of such flaws under the mastication forces can be followed by fracture toughness (KIC) or fracture energy (JIC) in linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM).

Improvements of mechanical and anticorrosive properties, as well as superior osseointegration of the hydroxyapatite coated titanium alloy were reported in the last years by the addition of different elements (Si or Ti) into hydroxyapatite structure. The aim of this work was to prepare and to investigate the hydroxyapatite (HAP) coatings enriched with SiC in order to enhance the mechanical properties of HAP films. The coatings were deposited on Ti6Al4V alloy substrates by co-sputtering of HAP and SiC targets, using a magnetron sputtering system. The films were characterized in terms of elemental and phase composition, chemical binding, morphology and mechanical properties by EDS, XRD, FTIR, SEM, AFM, and nanoindentation. Overall, improved mechanical properties were found by adding SiC to the basic HAP structure.

This study utilized the finite element method (FEM) to predict distribution of stresses in dentin of an endodontically treated tooth, restored with cast post and cores. For this investigation an axisymmetric model of a maxillary second pre-molar that included an alveolar bone was analysed. The three tooth models evaluated were Ti-Ti alloy, NiCr-AuPd alloy and Ti-NiCr alloy as post-material and crown material with porcelain. A load of 200 N at an angle of 45 degrees to the longitudinal axis was applied on the occlusal margin of each model. The tooth was assumed isotropic, homogenous and elastic. The author prepared a calculation program using fortran 77. Investigation of the stress distributions was made in five regions; namely bottom of post, top of post, cole, metal-cement interface and metal-porcelain interface. The distributions of radial and axial stresses were plotted with length of radial.

The finite element method was used to calculate temperature and thermal stress distribution as a result of hot/cold liquid in the mouth. This numerical study was carried out using axisymmetric finite element models and the tooth model was endodontically treated restored with cast post and cores. The two tooth models evaluated were Ti-Ti alloy and NiCr-AuPd alloy as post material and crown material with porcelain. First, temperature changes on the restored tooth as a result of hot/cold liquid in the mouth were calculated and then the thermal stress as a result of temperature changes were carried out. A fortran computer program was developed for this study. The tooth was assumed isotropic, homogenous, elastic and symmetrical. The distribution of temperature and thermal stress versus time were plotted for four critical points.

This paper presents the stress analysis of the maxillary second premolar tooth under thermal loading as a result of hot/cold liquid in the mouth using the three-dimensional (3D) finite element method (FEM). The tooth was considered to be in a restored state with composite resin and amalgam on glass-ionomer as the base material. In the first step of the study, the temperature changes as a result of hot/cold liquid in the mouth were calculated. The thermal stress distributions owing to the temperature changes were then obtained. All calculation programs were prepared by the authors using FORTRAN 77. The tooth was assumed to be isotropic, homogeneous, elastic and unsymmetric. The distribution of temperature and stress were plotted for some critical points.

In the first part of this study some physical properties of restorative materials, amalgam, glass-ionomer and composite resin were measured experimentally. In the second part a numerical study was carried out, for which the maxillary second premolar tooth was used. The tooth model was restored with composite resin and amalgam on glass-ionomer, which was used as the base material. The stress distribution investigated was the resultant of the stresses which come from the mastication force and those resulting from the contraction and expansion of restorative materials. All calculations were carried out using the finite element method and programs were written using FORTRAN 77. A load of 450 N, at an angle of 45 degrees to the longitudinal axis was applied on the occlusal margin of the tooth. The tooth was assumed isotropic, homogenous, elastic and unsymmetrical. The distribution of compressive, tensile and shear stresses were plotted for the whole tooth structure.

The objective of this study was to calculate stress distribution in a maxillary second premolar tooth which occurred by the mastication force. The tooth model was crowned with Au-Pd alloy, Ni-Cr alloy and porcelain. A load of 450 N, at an angle of 45 degrees to the longitudinal axis was applied on the occlusal margin of the crown tooth. The tooth was assumed isotropic, homogenous, elastic and unsymmetrical. This numerical study was carried out using three-dimensional finite element models and calculation programs were prepared by the authors using FORTRAN 77. The distribution of compressive, tensile and shear stress were plotted for the dentine, dentine-metal and metal-porcelain interfaces. The highest stress values were observed when Ni-Cr alloy and porcelain was used.

The axisymmetrical finite element method (FEM) was used to compare stress distribution in a maxillary second premolar restored tooth. The three models were evaluated by crowning the tooth with Au-Pd alloy, Ni-Cr alloy and Ti alloy with acrylic. A longitudinal static force, 200 N in magnitude at an angle of 45 degrees was applied on the occlusal margin of each model. The tooth was assumed isotropic, homogenous and elastic. This numerical study was carried out using axisymmetric finite element models and calculation programmes were prepared by the authors using FORTRAN 77. Comparison of stress distributions was made in four regions of apex, cole, dentin-metal interface and metal-acrylic interface. The highest stress values were obtained when NiCr alloy with acrylic was used.

The study was carried out in two stages: (1) MOD amalgam cavities were prepared on maxillary second premolars and three strain gauges were attached to the palatal surface of each tooth. The teeth were filled using amalgam with and without base material (glass-ionomer). Stresses occurred during the hardening phase and also through mastication and were measured by strain-gauge rosettes. (2) The stresses which occurred at the same points were calculated by the finite element method and compared with the values obtained experimentally. The highest stress values were observed when no base material was used.

The removable partial dentures supported by the telescopic crowns are an alternative for directly retained removable partial dentures. The stress distribution on the retainers and the surrounding tissues created by the telescopic and conus crowns of different sizes (4, 5, 6 mm) and taper (0 degrees, 2 degrees, 4 degrees, 6 degrees ) was investigated with the finite element analysis (FEA) method. The stress values obtained were evaluated either as strain or tensional forces. The loosening force of the secondary crown being determined as 5 N, the increase in tension of the dentine, metal structure, alveolar bone, periodontal ligament and the pulp were determined by the increasing height and taper. The reason for the increase in tensional forces with increasing taper was the result of the constant loosening force of 5 N applied in all experimental models. The strain was more effective than the tension with the highest stress being in the cervical region of the metal structure. The aim of this study was to determine the force exerted on the teeth and surrounding tissues by the loosened secondary crown.
