Abstract
PURPOSE: To establish a three-dimensional finite element model for orthodontic anchorage micro-implant,and to analyze the influence of different titled angles on the biomechanical characteristics of orthodontic anchorage implant-bone interface. METHODS: ANSYS(Analysis System)finite element analysis software was used to perform the finite element modeling of the micro-implant with 7 different tilted angles, including 30 degrees, 40 degrees, 50 degrees, 60 degrees, 70 degrees, 80 degrees and 90 degrees. A simulated orthodontic force, which was 200 grams, was loaded mesiodistally to the mathematical models. The stress and displacement distribution on the implant-bone interface were analyzed. RESULTS: As the titled angle increased, the Von-Mises stress at the cervix of the implants were 1.0792, 1.0104, 0.8848, 0.8181, 0.7583, 0.6339 and 0.5608MPa, while the displacement were 5.5513, 4.9900, 3.7419, 3.1264, 2.5874, 1.3624 and 0.8027microm CONCLUSION: The micro-implant can be safely loaded with 200 grams of mesiodistal orthodontic force. The increase of the titled angle can efficaciously enhance the ability,implicating that the implant can bear a mesiodistal orthodontic force, vertical angle should be chosen when the micro-implant is embedded.
