A. Forces only

B. Moments only

C. A combination of forces and moments

D. A single force only

E. A single moment only

Vladislav N. Nikitin

Dear Almustafa Alhumadi!

You can create (apply to the tooth) only force, only moment or force and moment using biomechanics (mechanics (physics)).

I suggest You look at the book "Physics in Orthodontics" edited by Dr. Jean-Marc Retrouvey UMKC Dr.Katherine Kousaie McGill (https://discoverortho.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Physics-in-Orthodontics-05-25-21-English-.pdf).

Best regards, Vladislav Nikitin.
