ABSTRACT
The main goal of this research is the creation of a virtual model of accomplishing mastication in agreement with the morphology and functionality of the human masticatory system and its transfer by designing and creating a simulator based on revolving tools resources that comply with the mandibular biomechanics, both from a kinematic and a dynamic perspective.Simulation methods are absolutely necessary avantgarde methods in the stage that precedes the practical implementation of research stages, outlining accurate approaches of certain directions of practical applicability, the outcome being pertinent given the duplication of experimental models that reiterate the clinical case.Taking into account the above mentioned kinematic and dynamic elements, a simulator of the maxillary-mandibular system is designed, in compliance with the kinematics and the dynamic of the masticatory process.
