Effects of periodontal bone loss on the natural frequency of the human canine: a three-dimensional finite element analysis

Assessing periodontal conditions has always been a concern for dental researchers. In this study, we evaluated the potential of a natural frequency (NF) analysis to detect the health status of natural human canine teeth. Materials and methods: Three-dimensional finite element models of the human max...
