Abstract
The finite element method is a numerical modeling tool used in various fields in medicine and surgery such as orthopedics, traumatology, and cardiovascular surgery. But this tool also has several applications in maxillofacial surgery. We present the advantages of this method by describing its principles as well as the various fields of application in maxillofacial surgery. This article was intended to help novices understand the results of various studies using this method.Mesh:
