A computational study of forward head posture biomechanics

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials
Forward head posture (FHP) is a common postural deviation linked to musculoskeletal disorders and altered cervical spine biomechanics. This study used a validated finite element model (C0-T1, THUMS v4.2) to quantify the biomechanical effects of FHP, with validation against cadaveric data for sagittal balance and range of motion in flexion-extension ...

The Influence of Forward Head Posture on Dental Occlusion

CRANIO®, 2000
A well established premise in the field of craniomandibular and cervical spine orthopedics is that forward head posture (FHP) adversely affects mandibular position and therefore dental occlusion. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of FHP on the initial occlusal contact pattern (IOCP) in order to provide further clarification on ...

Effects of Posture Correction on Chest Expansion with patient with Forward Head Posture

Pakistan Journal of Medical and Health Sciences, 2022
Background: Poor posture and sedentary lifestyle cause Forward Head Posture (FHP). Although Posture Correction Band (PCB) is used quite often to correct FHP, yet it is not exactly known that the PCB influenced the chest expansion in population with FHP. Aim: To find out the effects of PCB on chest expansion in population with FHP.

Assessment of forward head posture in females: Observational and photogrammetry methods

Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation, 2014
Background: There are different methods to assess forward head posture (FHP) but the accuracy and discrimination ability of these methods are not clear. Objectives: Here, we want to compare three postural angles for FHP assessment and also study the discrimination accuracy of three photogrammetric methods to differentiate groups categorized based on ...
