dc.description.abstractThe objective of this study was to calculate stress distribution in a maxillary second premolar tooth which occurred by the mastication force. The tooth model was crowned with Au-Pd alloy, Ni-Cr alloy and porcelain. A load of 450 N, at an angle of 45° to the longitudinal axis was applied on the occlusal margin of the crown tooth. The tooth was assumed isotropic, homogenous, elastic and unsymmetrical. This numerical study was carried out using three-dimensional finite element models and calculation programs were prepared by the authors using FORTRAN 77. The distribution of compressive, tensile and shear stress were plotted for the dentine, dentine-metal and metal-porcelain interfaces. The highest stress values were observed when Ni-Cr alloy and porcelain was used. © 2002 Blackwell Science Ltd.
