The Periodontal Ligament, A Key Factor During Orthodontic Tooth Movement: Mechanical Characterization by Nanoindentation

Abstract

This study concerns the determination of some mechanical properties of the periodontal ligament (PDL) by nanoindentation tests. The PDL is an essential promoter of the transmission of stresses applied to a tooth, then of bone remodeling. Few data available in the literature contradict each other. Some mechanical properties of the periodontal ligament were determined by nanoindentation and compared to the existing literature.
