    Finite Element Study of Peek Materials Applied in Post-Retained Restorations
    (MDPI, 2022) Yu, Hao; Feng, Zhihong; Wang, Ling; Mihçin, Şenay; Kang, Jianfeng; Bai, Shizhu; Zhao, Yimin
    Background: This study aimed to investigate the biomechanical behaviors of polyether ether ketone (PEEK) and traditional materials (titanium and fiber) when used to restore tooth defects in the form of prefabricated post or customized post via computational modelling. Methods: First, the prototype of natural tooth, and the prototypes of prefabricated post and customized post were established, respectively, whilst the residual root was restored with dentin ferrule using reverse engineering methods. Then, the stress and strain of CFR-PEEK (PEEK reinforced by 30% carbon fiber) and pure PEEK (PEEK without any reprocessing) post were compared with those made in traditional materials using the three-dimensional finite element method. Results: From the stress point of view, compared with metal and fiber posts, CFR-PEEK and pure PEEK prefabricated post both demonstrated reduced post-core interface stress, post stress, post-root cement stress and root cement stress; moreover, CFR-PEEK and pure PEEK customized post demonstrated reduced post stress, post-root cement stress and root cement stress, while the strain of CFR-PEEK post was the closest to that of dentin. Conclusions: Compared with the traditional posts, both the CFR-PEEK and pure PEEK posts could reduce the risk of debonding and vertical root fracture, whether they were used as prefabricated posts or customized posts, but the biomechanical behavior of carbon fiber-reinforced CFR-PEEK restorations was the closest to dentin, no matter if they were used as prefabricated post or customized post. Therefore, the CFR-PEEK post could be more suitable to restore massive tooth defects. Pure PEEK needs filler reinforcement to be used for post-retained restoration.

    Detailed Investigation of Three-Dimensional Modeling and Printing Technologies From Medical Images To Analyze Femoral Head Fractures Using Finite Element Analysis
    (Elsevier, 2022) Çıklacandır, Samet; Mihçin, Şenay; İşler, Yalçın
    Objectives: One of the fields, where additive manufacturing has numerous applications, is biomedical engineering. 3D printing is preferred over traditional manufacturing methodologies, mostly while developing subject-specific implants and medical devices. This study aims to provide a process flow detailing all the stages starting from the acquisition of radiological images from different imaging modalities; such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to the printing of the bone morphology and finite element analysis; including the validation process. Materials & Methods: First, the CT scan of a lower abdomen area of a patient was converted into a 3D image using interactive medical imaging control system software. The segmentation process was applied to isolate the femoral head from the soft tissue and the pelvic bone. After the roughness errors and the gaps in the segments were removed using the 3Matic software, the file was converted to stereolithography (STL) file format to transfer to the 3D printer. The printing process was carried out via commercial powder-based Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) printer. The subject-specific femoral head model was formed in 3D. The Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of the femoral head was performed using a commercial FE software package. Results: The results show that experimental analysis and the CT scan-based FEA were compatible both for the stress distributions and the strain values as predicted by the models (R2=0.99). The deviation was calculated as approximately 12% between the experimental results and the Finite Element (FE) results. In addition, it was observed that the SLS technique produced useful results for modeling biomedical tissues with about 24x faster prototyping time. Conclusion: The prescribed process flow could be utilized in clinical settings for the pre-planning of the surgeries (≈428 minutes for femoral head) and also as an educational tool in the biomedical engineering field.
