The effects of gape angle and bite point on bite force in bats [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2003
Models of mammalian mastication predict that bite force is affected by both the degree of mouth opening (gape angle) and the point along the tooth row at which force is transferred to a food item (bite point).

Effects of bruxism on the maximum bite force [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2017
Background/Aim. Bruxism is a parafunctional activity of the masticatory system, which is characterized by clenching or grinding of teeth. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the presence of bruxism has impact on maximum bite force, with ...

Bite Force Recording Devices - A Review [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
In dental research, bite force serves as a valuable parameter to evaluate the efficacy of masticatory system. A variety of devices with different design and working principle have been used to record bite force, but no single device is capable to record

Bite Force in Subjects with Complete Dentition [PDF]

Collegium antropologicum, 2002
Bite force is the condition, expression and measure of the masticatory function. The purpose of this study was to examine, by means of a newly constructed electronic gnathodynamometer, the values of maximal bite forces in subjects with complete ...

Clade-wide variation in bite-force performance is determined primarily by size, not ecology [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 2022
Performance traits are tightly linked to the fitness of organisms. However, because studies of variation in performance traits generally focus on just one or several closely related species, we are unable to draw broader conclusions about how and why ...

Correlation of skull morphology and bite force in a bird-eating bat (Ia io; Vespertilionidae)

Frontiers in Zoology, 2020
Background Genetic and ecological factors influence morphology, and morphology is compatible with function. The morphology and bite performance of skulls of bats show a number of characteristic feeding adaptations.

A preliminary report of maximum voluntary bite force of young Indian population

Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences
Introduction: The measurement of bite force is increasingly gaining importance in dentistry. This preliminary report evaluates the maximum voluntary bite force (MVBF) of young healthy individuals with normal occlusion and correlates the effect of age and

Assessing Frailty in the Older: The Role of Bite Force as an Independent Indicator [PDF]

Geriatrics
Background: This study investigates the relationship between bite force and grip strength as indicators of frailty in older adults. Frailty syndrome, characterized by increased vulnerability to adverse health outcomes, poses significant challenges in ...
