ABSTRACT
The hydrostatic stress in the periodontal ligament (PDL) evaluated by finite element analysis is considered an important indicator for determining an appropriate orthodontic force. The computed result of the hydrostatic stress strongly depends on the PDL material model used in the orthodontic simulation. This study aims to investigate the effects of PDL Poisson's ratio and tension-compression asymmetric moduli on both the simulated tooth displacement and the PDL hydrostatic stress. Three tension-compression symmetric and two asymmetric PDL constitutive models were selected to simulate the tensile and compressive behavior of a PDL specimen under uniaxial loading, and the resulting numerical results were compared with the in-vitro PDL experimental results reported in the literature. Subsequently, a tooth model was established, and the selected constitutive models and parameters were employed to assess the hydrostatic stress state in the PDL under two distinct loading conditions. The simulated results indicate that PDL Poisson's ratio and tension-compression asymmetry exert substantial influences on the simulated PDL hydrostatic stress. Conversely, the elastic modulus exhibits minimal impact on the PDL stress state under the identical loading conditions. Furthermore, the PDL models with tension-compression asymmetric moduli and appropriate Poisson's ratio yield more realistic hydrostatic stress. Hence, it is imperative to employ suitable Poisson's ratio and tension-compression asymmetric moduli for the purpose of characterizing the biomechanical response of the PDL in orthodontic simulations.
