Determinants of masticatory performance assessed by mixing ability tests

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 2022
Studies determining the main predictors of masticatory performance by using mixing ability tests are sparse.The purpose of this clinical study was to identify potential determinants of masticatory performance assessed by analyzing a patient's masticatory ability using bicolored chewing gum and visual, quantitative, and interactive methods.Nondental ...

A review of masticatory ability and efficiency

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1995
Masticatory function can be assessed by chewing tests and questionnaires or personal interviews. Whereas the chewing tests allow the assessment of masticatory efficiency with some objectivity, questionnaires help evaluate a person's subjective responses about chewing ability.

Comparing masticatory performance and mixing ability

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2010
Summary  Masticatory performance has often been measured by determining an individual’s capacity to comminute a test food. Another method to determine masticatory performance, which is now widely used, evaluates the ability to mix and knead a food bolus.

Masticatory ability in experimentally induced xerostomia

Dysphagia, 1991
The masticatory ability of 15 nondysphagic volunteers with complete natural dentition was tested using different chewing parameters including preparation of a two-color plastic chewing gum (bolus shape, and color mixture), particle reduction of a piece of silicone, and number of strokes before swallow of almonds.

Shortened dental arches and masticatory ability

Journal of Dentistry, 1990
In a previous study concerning oral function with shortened dental arches, it was found that approximately 10 per cent of the patients investigated complained of impaired masticatory ability despite a substantial reduction in arch length and, as a consequence, food platform area.

The role of oral sensorimotor function in masticatory ability

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2004
summary  In order to investigate the relationship between oral sensorimotor ability and masticatory function, an oral stereognosis ability (OSA) test, masticatory performance and efficiency was employed for 15 dentate subjects. Subjects were instructed to orally identify OSA test pieces blindly.

Study on masticatory movement and its ability: efficacy of a test capsule in the evaluation of masticatory movement

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2000
It has been shown that a test capsule originally designed as a simple and reliable aid to evaluate masticatory ability could help to identify the characteristics of chewing loops between individuals in evaluation of masticatory movement, and detect even a slight disorder in the stomatognathic system. In this study, the Sirognathograph® Analysing System

Masticatory ability—cineradiographic observations

Journal of Dentistry, 1972
Abstract Masticatory ability may be assessed by analysis of cineradiographic film displaying the pattern of food placement during chewing. Examination was made of subjects in three groups: with intact arches, with defective arches with few teeth missing, and with arches having only anterior teeth in occlusion.
