The cover image of the 2011 research report shows a three-dimensional skull reconstruction based on computed tomography data sets with integration of a face scan to show the skin structures.
In all areas of dentistry, oral and maxillofacial medicine, digital, three-dimensional data sets are an important tool for diagnostics, treatment planning and therapy. They are the basis for planning complex implant-supported prosthetic reconstructions, oral surgery procedures such as trauma or tumor diseases and orthodontic surgery. The cover image/animation also contains a visualization of the stress distribution that occurs during masticatory loading within an implant-supported bridge restoration.
These stress analyses using the finite element (FE) method allow detailed conclusions to be drawn as to how functional loads affect the long-term stability of dental restorations, taking into account a wide range of parameters(Dittmer, Kohorst, Borchers, Schwestka-Polly, Stiesch, J Oral Rehabil 2011). The results of these complex numerical analyses provide important information for the design optimization of dentistry restorations and the development of new dental biomaterials.
The images were provided by Prof. Dr. Meike Stiesch, Director of the Clinical Department of Dental Prosthetics and Biomedical Materials and Prof. Nils-Claudius Gellrich, Director of the Clinical Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.
