A human mandible was duplicated in birefringent resin. The distribution and effect of occlusal forces within the mandible was demonstrated utilizing birefringent resin models compared to natural specimens. The results of this study reinforce those theories that assign function a major role in bone remodeling in the mandible. Further, the condyle is seen to be a stress-bearing structure.
