为阐明生物力学与口腔医学的关系,本文对当前口腔医学领域内涉及生物力学的有关事件进行了扼要和简短的复习。发现在口腔医学领域内,有关生物力学原理的事件分布在各亚科,真是无所不在。无论在科学研究,新的口腔生物材料和器械的诞生,以及提高临床医疗质量方面,生物力学都促进着口腔医学的发展。此外,生物力学原理还丰富了医学哲学思想,它有助于临床医师在诊治患者过程中辨证思维的培养。笔者认为:细胞水平和分子水平的生物力学研究应当是今后口腔生物力学的发展方向。

To elucidate the relationship between biomechanics and stomatology, a brief review has been made on the studies and applications of biomechanics in the field of oral medical science. If was found that the principles of biomechanics were applied to explain the clinic and scientific phenomena almost in all sub-divisions of stomatology. Biomechanicsboosts the advancement of stomatology such as scientific researches, the inventions of biomaterials and applicationsand the improvement of medical care quality. Biomechanics is a subdiscipline belonging to the philosophy of medicine. Itis also beneficial to the clinicians in fostering and strengthening the thinking of differentiation of symptoms and signs indiagnosis and treatment. The author indicate that with the development of cytobiology and molecular biology, the biomechanical researches should be at the molecular and cellular level and have a better future.
