Effects of various forms of calcium added to chewing gum on initial enamel carious lesions in situ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The purpose of this randomized, cross-over in situ study was to determine the effects of 4 chewing gums on artificial caries-like subsurface lesions.

Lagomorph cranial biomechanics and the functional significance of the unique fenestrated rostrum of leporids

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The crania of leporid lagomorphs are uniquely fenestrated, including the posterior cranial bones and the lateral portion of the maxilla. The functional significance of the highly fenestrated rostrum has received considerably little attention, despite being absent in other mammalian herbivores with a long rostrum.

In‐vitro puncture experiment using alligator teeth tracks the formation of dental microwear and its association with hardness of the diet

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and

Impact of Masticatory Discomfort on Daily Living Difficulties in Korean Elderly with Cognitive Decline

open access: yes치위생과학회지, 2023
Background: Cognitive impairment has been reported to be closely associated with poor oral health, and the relationship is bidirectional, as older adults with poor oral health and chewing function are at a higher risk of cognitive decline (CD).

Chewing it Over: Does Chewing Gum Affect Appetite? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Approximately 43% of the UK population regularly chew gum. Previous research suggests that chewing gum may help control short-term food intake through satisfying appetite.

Inter‐microscope comparability of dental microwear texture data obtained from different optical profilometers: Part II Deriving instrument‐specific correction equations for meta‐analyses using published data

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) has emerged as a valuable method for investigating the feeding ecology of vertebrates. Over the past decade, three‐dimensional topographic data from microscopic regions of tooth surfaces have been collected, and surface texture parameters have been published for both extant and fossil species.

A Preliminary Study on Feeding Straw to Horses and Its Effects on Equine Chewing and Consumption Rates

open access: yesInternational Journal of Equine Science
Straw as a forage source has been investigated with regards to managing obese horses. However, its effect on chewing rate (CHR) and consumption rate (CR) lacks convincing evidence to encourage its inclusion.

Effect of forage particle length on rumen fermentation, sorting and chewing activity of late-lactation and non-lactating dairy cows

open access: yesAnimal, 2013
The objective of this study was to determine the effects of varying forage particle length on chewing activity, sorting behavior, rumen pH and rumen fill in late lactation and dry dairy cattle, fed rations with similar physically effective NDF but ...

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

The SPLENDID chewing detection challenge

open access: yes, 2017
This dataset contains approximately 60 hours of recordings from a prototype chewing detection system. The sensor signals include photoplethysmography (PPG) and processed audio from the ear-worn chewing sensor, and signals from a belt-mounted 3D ...
