Maximal Bite Force Measured via Digital Bite Force Transducer in Subjects with or without Dental Implants—A Pilot Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The aims of the current study were as following: (1) to evaluate the maximal bite forces in patients with dental implants versus patients without dental implants, as measured by a digital bite force transducer (GM10); (2) to evaluate the influences of ...

Effect of Botulinum Toxin Injection on EMG Activity and Bite Force in Masticatory Muscle Disorder: A Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) is increasingly used in treating masticatory muscle pain disorder; however, safe doses and reinjection intervals still need to be established.

Estimating bite force in extinct dinosaurs using phylogenetically predicted physiological cross-sectional areas of jaw adductor muscles

open access: yesPeerJ, 2022
I present a Bayesian phylogenetic predictive modelling (PPM) framework that allows the prediction of muscle parameters (physiological cross-sectional area, APhys) in extinct archosaurs from skull width (WSk) and phylogeny.

The Effect of a Masticatory Muscle Training Program on Chewing Efficiency and Bite Force in People with Dementia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022
Until now, no study has investigated the effects of masticatory muscle training on chewing function in people with dementia. This study aimed to investigate whether physiotherapeutic exercises for the masticatory muscles have an influence on chewing ...

Bite Force, Occlusal Contact and Pain in Orthodontic Patients during Fixed-Appliance Treatment

open access: yesDental journal, 2022
Previously, bite force, occlusal contact and pain were investigated in orthodontic patients with moderate-to-severe malocclusion, but not in patients with minor malocclusion.

Capacitive-Type Pressure-Mapping Sensor for Measuring Bite Force

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022
Bite force is an important indicator of masticatory performance. However, existing methods for measuring bite force are either ineffective or expensive.

Clade-wide variation in bite-force performance is determined primarily by size, not ecology

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B, 2022
Performance traits are tightly linked to the fitness of organisms. However, because studies of variation in performance traits generally focus on just one or several closely related species, we are unable to draw broader conclusions about how and why ...

A bite force database of 654 insect species

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
Bite force is a decisive performance trait in animals because it plays a role for numerous life history components such as food consumption, inter- and intraspecific interactions, and reproductive success.

Bite Force: A Contemporary Narrative Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Health Sciences and Research, 2022
Bite force is one of the indicators of the masticatory apparatus's functioning status, as determined by the activation of the jaw's elevator muscles as a result of craniomandibular biomechanics.
