Edible Bite Force Sensor: A Novel Approach to Measuring Bite Force in Biomedical and Dental Applications [PDF]

Medical Science Monitor
BACKGROUND Measurement of bite force plays a crucial role in assessment of the masticatory system. With a growing interest in detecting occlusal irregularities, bite force sensors have garnered attention in the biomedical field. This study aimed to introduce a hydrogel bite force sensor, based on hydroxyethyl-cellulose-fructose-water (HEC-F-water), for

Estimated and in vivo measurements of bite force demonstrate exceptionally large bite forces in parrots (Psittaciformes) [PDF]

Journal of Anatomy
AbstractJaw morphology and function determine the range of dietary items that an organism can consume. Bite force is a function of the force exerted by the jaw musculature and applied via the skeleton. Bite force has been studied in a wide range of taxa using various methods, including direct measurement, or calculation from skulls or jaw musculature ...

Effects of body temperature on initial bite force in three species of rock- and crevice-dwelling lizards from Mexico [PDF]

Herpetozoa, 2021
Bite force can be an important aspect of a lizard’s organismal performance, and is likely to be subject to influence by ambient conditions including an individual’s thermal environment.

Bite Force and Influential Factors on Bite Force Measurements: A Literature Review [PDF]

European Journal of Dentistry, 2010
Maximum voluntary bite force is an indicator of the functional state of the masticatory system and the level of maximum bite force results from the combined action of the jaw elevator muscles modified by jaw biomechanics and reflex mechanisms. The measurement of bite force can provide useful data for the evaluation of jaw muscle function and activity ...

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.

Handgrip force and bite force in dentulous and edentulous individuals

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2023
AbstractBackgroundThe 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.ObjectiveTo establish the correlation between HF and BF in female participants with distinct ages and dentate conditions ...

Quantifying bite force in coexisting tayassuids and feral suids: a comparison between morphometric functional proxies and in vivo measurements [PDF]

PeerJ, 2021
Background Measuring mammals’ bite force in laboratory conditions is not a simple task, let alone on wild medium-sized mammals in the field. Thus, morphometric-proxies are usually used to infer morphofunctional properties of musculoskeletal features. For
