The shape of implants in masticatory force distribution
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1975Summary The role of the shape of implants in transmitting masticatory forces to bone was subjected to mathematical evaluation. The blade-type implant results in less pressure on bone as compared to the root-resembling forms. The application of the principles discussed may improve the predictability of results with oral implants.

Masticatory Function and Bite Force in Stroke Patients
Journal of Dental Research, 2010Orofacial functions are frequently affected by stroke, but little is known on the nature and extent of the impairment of mastication, which is investigated in this observational study. Thirty-one stroke patients, aged 69.0 ± 12.7 yrs, presenting with a hemi-syndrome with facial palsy, were recruited.

Development of computerized masticatory force measurement system
Journal of Medical Engineering & Technology, 2016The aim of this study was to assess the Maximum Voluntary Bite Force (MVBF) in Indian population with normal occlusion and after treatment of mandibular angle fracture.This paper discusses the development of a sensor fork with modified load cell and computer-based bite force measuring system that generates force profile on the computer.

Ultimate Masticatory Force as a Criterion in Implant Selection
Journal of Dental Research, 2011Osseointegrated implants often fail because of excessive masticatory forces that cause extremely large stresses in bone tissue. We hypothesized that a proper dental implant could be selected by comparing the ultimate masticatory forces of a wide range of commercially available implants.

Masticatory muscle force and facial morphology in man
Archives of Oral Biology, 1978Abstract Facial morphology was studied in profile and postero-anterior radiographs of the skulls of 25 men with strong bite force and 25 with weak bite force (average age 24.8 years). The strong men differed from the weak in having an anterior inclination of the mandible with a smaller anterior and a greater posterior face height, a smaller gonial ...

Masticatory Forces Accurately Identified
The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1970A technic that simulates the actual eating experience has been developed to help patients with denture problems. The method enables the dentist to identify quickly and accurately points of soreness that the patient experiences. It is a low-cost technic, and it saves time for the patient and the dentist by eliminating the need for visits after the ...

Estimated masticatory forces in patients before orthognathic surgery
Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1994There has been relatively little study of masticatory forces in dentofacial deformity patients before orthognathic surgery. This study used a mathematical equation based on electromyographic activity (EMG) during mastication and forces obtained during isometric bites to estimate masticatory forces in 55 control subjects and 48 patients. Subjects chewed

Masticatory efficiency and bite force in individuals with normal occlusion
Archives of Oral Biology, 2014The aim of the study was to evaluate and correlate masticatory efficiency (ME) and maximum bite force (MBF) in adult individuals of both genders with normal occlusion.The study was conducted in a university research centre. ME and MBF were evaluated in 55 adults (27 men and 28 women) with normal occlusion. All subjects chewed four fuchsin capsules (two

Bite force in patients with functional disturbances of the masticatory system
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1975SummaryIn thirty patients (24 women and 6 men) treated because of dysfunction of the masticatory system at the department of Stomatognathic Physiology, University of Gothenburg, bite force was registered before, during and after treatment had been completed.
