Handgrip force and bite force in dentulous and edentulous individuals
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2023 Abstract Background The literature is unclear about bite force (BF) and handgrip force (HF) in a specific group of different ages and dentate conditions, or even a predictive model for each specific group, using BF and HF as factors ...

Type of correlation between bite force and EMG activity of the temporalis and masseter muscles during maximal and submaximal clenching [PDF]
Folia Medica, 2023 Introduction: Maximal bite force is an important determinant of masticatory function and is essential for the estimation of dental status. Bite force is usually measured by gnathodynamometry.

Evaluation of occlusal forces in different stages of children - An exploratory study
Saudi Journal of Oral Sciences, 2018 Introduction: Bite force is one of the indicators of the functional state of mastication and loading of teeth. Bite force measurement is a reliable method of assessing the biomechanical properties of the masticatory system.

The effects of gape angle and bite point on bite force in bats [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2003 SUMMARY 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). Despite the widespread use of these models in comparative analyses, experimental data documenting bite force in non-human
