JAMES P. RALPH 1 and ANGELO A. CAPUTO 1

1 School of Dentistry, University of California, Los Angeles, California 90024, USA, and Veterans Administration Hospital, Sepulveda, California 91343

Occlusal loading was simulated, and the stresses generated within the models were examined by three-dimensional photoelastic stress analysis.
