Ideal Loop Characteristics
1) Sufficiently high Moment/Force (M/F) ratio to bring about desired tooth movement.2) Low Load Deflection (F/D) rate to maintain a low rate of force decay.www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Aims and Objectivesa) Compare the Moment Force ratio and Load deflection rates from the FEM with those of Burstones findings.b) To seek an explanation for different findings, if any.www.indiandentalacademy.com

Stage I- Validation with Burstones findings INFERENCESI) The trends in the variations of the moments and displacement values obtained from the FEM and the findings of Burstone are similar.Hence, there is a valid place for using FEM in understanding Loop mechanics.www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Stage I- Validation with Burstones findings INFERENCESII) The numerical values for displacements are very close to the ones observed by Burstone.III) The values for moments from the FEM are, in general, on the higher side. This is probably on account of the boundary conditions in the FEM and other material properties like elasticity.www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Stage I- Validation with Burstones findings INFERENCESIV) The numerical values for the moments , though higher initially , showed a rapid drop when the horizontal loop length was increased from 7-14 and then 14-21 mm.www.indiandentalacademy.com

STAGE II - COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF COMMON LOOPSwww.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Stage II - Comparative analysis of Common loopsKeeping in mind these differences between the FEM and the Experimental approach, the second stage was carried out.Material was modelled as a rectangular stainless steel wire of dimensions 0.018 X 0.025.www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Stage II - Comparative analysis of Common loopsThe other material properties were as defined by Siatowsky, namely E = 3 X 10 4 N/mm2 Poissons ratio= 0.3Forces ranging from 0.5 - 5N were applied at one end of the wire of horizontal loop length of 17.25 mm.www.indiandentalacademy.com

Stage II - Comparative analysis of Common loops
The Moment, Displacement, M/F and F/D values were calculated for the following configurations :

INFERENCESwww.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
INFERENCESI) Of all the loops studied, T loop has the most ideal properties in terms of M/F and F/D.www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
INFERENCESII) The L loop with angulated legs and the Asymmetric T loop come close to the T loop in terms of M/F alone in certain conditions. However, their F/D rate is considerably higher.III) The tear drop loop and the box loop with differing tops are not very different to the standard vertical loop in terms of M/F or the F/D.www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
INFERENCESIV) A change in the height of one loop leg does alter the M/F ratio considerably; however the Curettons modification does not significantly alter the M/F ratio or the F/D rate.

INFERENCESV) The increase in the M/F of a standard vertical loop when the height or the diameter are increased is not strictly proportionate.Although a vertical loop with a 10 mm height or a 6 mm diameter do give high M/F ratios, the anatomic constraints come in the way of clinically employing them.
