Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Pilot study to reduce chewing and eating rates using haptic feedback from the OCOsense glasses [PDF]
Obesity is a global concern and chewing manipulation has shown promising results for weight management. This preliminary pilot study explored the use of the OCOsense glasses to deliver personalised haptic feedback to encourage slower chewing.

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)
Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

Feeding behavior of lambs fed diets containing old man saltbush hay
Background: We hypothesized that a diet with old man saltbush hay used as an alternative source of nutrients could partially replace the concentrate in the feeding of feedlot lambs.

Chewing ability and desaturation during chewing in patients with COPD
Chewing ability is essential to maintain nutrition status and can be associated with oral conditions, sarcopenia, and lung function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Herein, our pilot study investigated the chewing ability and degree of desaturation during chewing in patients with COPD (n = 41) and control subjects (n = 22).

Development of chewing simulator [PDF]
Chewing simulator, which can partly mimic the motion of chewing motion of human, has been successfully developed. The purpose of its development was to make a new machine which can anticipate the clinical results of restoration in the human teeth more ...

Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...
