Effect of Soft Liner on Masticatory Efficiency and Bite Force in First-time Complete Denture Wearers: A Crossover Clinical Study [PDF]
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the masticatory efficiency and bite force of patients wearing complete mandibular dentures with and without a soft acrylic liner, having no previous denture-wearing experience.

Can Masticatory Electromyography be Normalised to Submaximal Bite Force? [PDF]
SummaryThe combination of bite force and jaw muscle electromyography (EMG) provides an insight into the performance of the stomatognathic system, especially in relation to dynamic movement tasks. Literature has extensively investigated possible methods for normalising EMG data encapsulating many different approaches.

Dynamic Modeling of the Electromyographic and Masticatory Force Relation Through Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System Principal Dynamic Mode Analysis [PDF]
Introduction: Researchers have employed surface electromyography (EMG) to study the human masticatory system and the relationship between the activity of masticatory muscles and the mechanical features of mastication.

Characteristics of Occlusal Force and Masticatory Performance in Female Patients Who Selected Implant Treatment for a Missing Mandibular Second Molar: A Retrospective Study [PDF]
Background: In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between a patient’s selection of implant treatment for a missing mandibular second molar and the magnitude of occlusal force, masticatory ability, mandibular morphology, and age before ...

Occlusal force, electromyographic activity of masticatory muscles and mandibular flexure of subjects with different facial types [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether vertical facial patterns influence maximal occlusal force (MOF), masticatory muscle electromyographic (EMG) activity, and medial mandibular flexure (MMF).

Association between clinical and functional factors and masticatory function of edentulous individuals aged 70 years and older: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
Background The global increase in the older population has led to a rise in untreated oral conditions such as edentulism. Oral rehabilitation for edentulous patients is essential to mitigate systemic health risks, including the progression of sarcopenia.

Human mandibular shape is associated with masticatory muscle force [PDF]
AbstractUnderstanding how and to what extent forces applied to the mandible by the masticatory muscles influence its form, is of considerable importance from clinical, anthropological and evolutionary perspectives. This study investigates these questions.
