Bite Force in Elderly with Full Natural Dentition and Different Rehabilitation Prosthesis
(1) Background: This study aimed to investigate maximum bite force (MBF) in elderly patients with natural full dentition (FD), patients rehabilitated with Traditional Complete Dentures (CD), with overdentures (IRO) and edentulous patients (ED).

Evaluation of occlusal forces in different stages of children - An exploratory study
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.

Jaw Bite Force to Predict Masseter Muscle Thickness and Swallowing Functions
Objectives:The age-related changes in the masticatory muscles and teeth lead to large spectrum of problems from malnutrition to death in the elderly. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship among bite strength, chewing muscle thickness ...

This study compared bite force in adults older than 60 years with that of young adults. The participants were 20 healthy adults (9 men) older than 60 years (median age, 66 years) and 44 healthy young adults (22 men; age range, 18-25 years; median age, 22 years) at the International Medical University, Malaysia.

A Simple Morphological Predictor of Bite Force in Rodents [PDF]
Bite force was quantified for 13 species of North American rodents using a piezo-resistive sensor. Most of the species measured (11) formed a tight relationship between body mass and bite force (log 10(bite force) = 0.43(log 10(body mass)) + 0.416; R2 ...
