Abstract
This study selected the maxillary labial impacted canine as the research object to build the model of periodontal ligament (PDL) and simulate the process of orthodontic treatment. This paper obtained stress–strain curve by calculating and analyzing the data of nanoindentation experiments. The parameters were identified through curve fittings by ABAQUS. The fitting results show that the third-order Ogden model is in good agreement with the experimental data which demonstrate that the third-order Ogden model is able to reflect the material properties of the PDL. In this paper, orthodontic process of the maxillary labial impacted canine was simulated. The results show that inside and outside surfaces of PDL all have stress variation, the stress on the root apex and dental cervix of PDL is relatively large, the maximum appears at dental cervix and the minimum appears close to tooth impedance center.
