Maximum Bite Force Analysis in Different Age Groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Introduction Maximum bite force (MBF) is the maximum force performed by the subject on the fragmentation of food, directly related with the mastication and determined by many factors. Objective Analyze the MBF of subjects according to age groups. Methods

In vivo cranial bone strain and bite force in the agamid lizard Uromastyx geyri [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In vivo bone strain data are the most direct evidence of deformation and strain regimes in the vertebrate cranium during feeding and can provide important insights into skull morphology.

Effect of gender, facial dimensions, body mass index and type of functional occlusion on bite force

open access: yesJournal of Applied Oral Science, 2011
OBJECTIVE: Some factors such as gender, age, craniofacial morphology, body structure, occlusal contact patterns may affect the maximum bite force. Thus, the purposes of this study were to determine the mean maximum bite force in individuals with normal ...

An Innovative Miniature Bite Force Recorder

open access: yesInternational Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry, 2011
In this study, a detailed description of development of a new novel bite force recorder (gnathodynamometer) using solid state components is vividly explained. This state of the art authenticated device can be used to assess the complex function of human bite force, which is the net resultant combination of functional response of various ...

Extreme and rapid bursts of functional adaptations shape bite force in amniotes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Adaptation is the fundamental driver of functional and biomechanical evolution. Accordingly, the states of biomechanical traits (absolute or relative trait values) have long been used as proxies for adaptations in response to direct selection.

Body Size and Bite Force of Stray and Feral Cats—Are Bigger or Older Cats Taking the Largest or More Difficult-to-Handle Prey?

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Simple Summary Predation by cats (Felis catus) threatens Australian wildlife. As they rely on their jaws to hold and subdue prey, their body size, skull shape and bite force can reflect an individual’s prey handling ability.
