Effect of chewing training on masticatory efficiency
Acta Odontologica Scandinavica, 1989 A special, hard chewing gum was used to study the effects of chewing training on masticatory efficiency. An experimental group of 17 individuals used this chewing gum 1 h daily for 28 days, while a control group of 8 individuals performed no chewing-gum training. The percentage of masticatory efficiency was measured with a special sieve system, and the
