[The establishment of the individual model libraries for stomatognathic system].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the method of establishing the individual model libraries for stomatognathic system.


METHODS
Based on the normal 3D FE models, including the upper jaw, lower jaw and whole dentitions, with the help of the ANSYS5.5, divided, trimmed or re-built these models, created the abnormal stomatognathic system.


RESULTS
Established three model libraries in common use, including the alveolar-absorbed-teeth, loosed-teeth, and alveolar-reduced-area, 308 models in all.


CONCLUSIONS
The established models have a satisfied geometric configuration, it will be more suitable for the research and clinic works if uses the individual FE models.
