Predictive value of molar bite force on Class II functional appliance treatment outcomes [PDF]
Sagittal intermaxillary changes brought about by functional appliances show large inter-individual variation. One factor that may in part explain these differences is the masticatory musculature and its functional capacity. The aims of this study were to

Lack of correlation between mouth-breathing and bite force [PDF]
The correlation between mouth-breathing and bite force was studied in 81 children, 7 to 16 years old. Mouth-breathing was diagnosed on the basis of the subject history, the rhinomanometrically determined nasal airflow and the size of the airway measured ...

Bite force in temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) and healthy complete denture wearers [PDF]
The signs and symptoms of temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) may contribute to reduce bite force and muscular activity. The aims of this study were to compare bite force in complete denture wearers with TMD (TMD group) and without TMD (healthy group ...

Effects of strong bite force on the facial vertical dimension of pembarong performers
Background: A pembarong performer is a reog dancer who bites on a piece of wood inserted into his/her mouth in order to support a 60 kg Barongan or Dadak Merak mask. The teeth supporting this large and heavy mask are directly affected, as the strong bite
