Mechanical properties of temporary anchorage device

Background/purpose: In order to evaluate properly the effect of different geometric designs of mini-implants on their mechanical behavior, finite element analysis (FEA) has long been a popular tool. The aim of the present study was to set up a standardized mechanical experiment to validate the effec...
