Bite force measurements with hard and soft bite surfaces

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2013
SummaryBite force has been measured by different methods and over a wide variety of designs. In several instruments, the fact that bite surface has been manufactured with stiff materials might interfere in obtaining reliable data, by a more prompt activation of inhibitory reflex mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to compare the maximum voluntary

Measurement of the Maximum Occlusal Bite Force and its Relation to the Caries Spectrum of First Permanent Molars in Early Permanent Dentition.

Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry, 2020
OBJECTIVE To determine the maximum occlusal bite force (MOBF) of the complete spectrum of dental caries in first permanent molars (FPMs) in children aged 7-9 years. STUDY DESIGN A cross-sectional study was conducted on 123 children.

Comparison of occlusal bite force distribution in subjects with different occlusal characteristics

Cranio : the journal of craniomandibular practice, 2020
Objective To analyze bite force distribution in subjects with different occlusal characteristics. Methods This prospective study included 132 candidates (50 males, 82 females) seeking orthodontic treatment, who were divided into four groups based on ...

Bite force measurement in awake rats

Brain Research Protocols, 2004
This report describes the implementation of bite force measurement in awake rats and software instruments (Spike 2 script programs) that quantify and analyze the bite force data. One script program employs user-defined control of threshold bite force, which allows an easy adjustment of target force prior to training the rat.

Maximum voluntary bite force, occlusal contact points and associated stresses on posterior teeth

, 2020
All-ceramic dental restorations are now regularly being used in clinical situations. Forces applied to ceramic dental restorations can result in failure due to cracking.

Bite Force Discrimination with Mandibular Movement

CRANIO®, 1985
AbstractThis study investigates the influence of jaw movement on bite force discrimination by comparing subjects' performances during static and dynamic conditions. The authors had hypothesized that exerting bite force with mandibular movement might activate the dynamic sensory receptors within the TMJs and the proprioceptors in the jaw elevator ...

Development of a bite force transducer for measuring maximum voluntary bite forces between individual opposing tooth surfaces.

Journal of The Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2020
Bite forces are studied in order to understand a wide range of factors pertaining to the mastication system. Various strain gauge transducers have been employed to measure bite forces, with several descriptions of these available in the literature ...

Pathologic attrition and maximal bite force

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1985
SummaryThe maximal bite force was recorded between antagonizing anterior teeth in a group (n= 10) of patients with pathologic attrition and in a control group. No statistically significant difference between the maximal bite forces was recorded. Also, the effect on the maximal bite force of the continuous wearing of a partial bite raising splint for 4 ...

Bite force and state of dentition

Acta Odontologica Scandinavica, 1977
The maximal bite force and the strength of the finger-thumb grip of 125 Skolt Lapps, aged 15 to 65, was measured with a specially devised apparatus. The bite force was measured with the biting fork placed between the first molars and between the incisors, respectively.

Human discrimination of different bite forces

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1984
SummaryTwenty young adult subjects were selected to determine normal baseline data of dynamic interdental bite force discrimination by use of a specially designed strain gauge instrument. The data may aid in defining the role of the periodontal ligament, temporomandibular joint and muscles of mastication in the regulation of interincisor bite force.
