Maximum voluntary molar bite force in subjects with malocclusion: multifactor analysis
Objective This study was performed to determine the maximum voluntary molar bite force (MVMBF) in relation to age, sex, lip competency, midline shifting, dental and skeletal malocclusion, overjet, overbite, and crowding.

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 ...

Financial Distress and its Determinants in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Objective To quantify the degree of financial distress and identify its determinants in adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) given the frequent chronic use of expensive disease modifying therapies. Methods We identified adults enrolled in the FORWARD databank with either RA or non‐inflammatory musculoskeletal disease (NIMSKD) completing the Functional

Form-function relationships in dragonfly mandibles under an evolutionary perspective [PDF]
© 2017 The Author(s). Functional requirements may constrain phenotypic diversification or foster it. For insect mouthparts, the quantification of the relationship between shape and function in an evolutionary framework remained largely unexplored.

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
