Abstract:
A standardized and modularized finite element model of a normal human skull is established to simulate the unilateral defective pattern of the maxillary and the stress distribution of craniofacial skeleton with repair subject to the bite force. Based on the model, the stress evaluation of autologous bone grafted and zygomatic implant is to optimize the repairing method, and to rebuild the occlusal function.
