What is Finite Element Analysis of Orthodontic Retainers about?

This study investigates the biomechanical behavior of fixed orthodontic retainers using finite element analysis, focusing on how retainer stiffness and tooth resilience affect force transmission and stress distribution. Results indicate that increased retainer stiffness and tooth resilience lead to higher stress in the adhesive bonding area, raising the risk of retainer failure. The findings suggest that overly stiff retainers should be avoided, particularly in cases with high tooth resilience, to prevent o
