An exploratory patient-specific finite element study of temporomandibular joint stress distribution following mandibular setback surgery in two distinct clinical scenarios

Mandibular setback surgery is commonly performed to correct skeletal Class III malocclusion, but its effects on temporomandibular joint (TMJ) biomechanics remain unclear, particularly regarding different setback configurations. This pilot study aimed to explore patterns of TMJ st...
