...). The finite element method is a suitable tool for approximating the stress distribution in the TMJs without invasion. Moreover, we studied the changes in contact stress, maximum, and minimum principal stresses on the articular discs, condyles, and temporal bones in the pre-operative, postoperative...

.... Lastly, we examine the importance of contributing features on stress value and location prediction to gain intuitions on the underlying process. Moreover, deep neural networks can capture the functional mapping described by the finite element method, which has far-reaching implications for real-time...
