Clinical effectiveness of implant support for distal extension removable partial dentures: functional evaluation using occlusal force measurement and masticatory efficiency

International Journal of Implant Dentistry, 2021
Background Implant-supported removable partial dentures (ISRPD) are supported at the free-end region with implant retainers. As implant retainers prevent denture settlement and facilitate denture retention, this is intended to improve masticatory ...

Osteoarthrosis: Analyze of the Molar Bite Force, Thickness and Masticatory Efficiency [PDF]

Prague Medical Report, 2020
Osteoarthrosis is a disorder of synovial joints, resulting from destruction of the cartilage and subchondral bone. The present study is aimed to investigate the molar bite force, thickness and efficiency of the masseter and temporalis muscles of subjects with osteoarthrosis. A total of forty-eight subjects participated in the study.

Masticatory force and electromyographic activity of the mandibular elevators muscles in different rehabilitation treatments.

Brazilian Dental Science, 2019
The masticatory function is one of the most complex neuropsychological mechanisms in human motor performance and it depends on several factors, such as bite force, muscle coordination, morphology, and number of teeth in occlusion.

Dietary Patterns Affect Occlusal Force but Not Masticatory Behavior in Children

Journal of Nutritional Science and Vitaminology, 2011
In this study, we conducted a dietary assessment of the subjects and investigated the relationship of energy, nutrients and food intake to the indices of masticatory ability and masticatory behavior for identifying the differences in their association with dietary patterns.The subjects were 61 5-y-old children, of whom 45 were included in the final ...
