Symmetric force response of human masticatory muscles to stretch and unloading

Experimental Brain Research, 1997
During chewing, the force exerted by the jaw-closing muscles must constantly adapt to changing resistances between the teeth, as the food is broken down. In the present study, the changes in biting force resulting from small, controlled displacements imposed on isometrically contracting jaw-closing muscles were measured. We found that the force changes

Comparison of biting force and masticatory efficiency in patient with different denture base material

Al-Azhar Journal of Dental Science, 2018
Background: The potential alternative materials to PMMA are the polycarbonates and the nylon denture base resins. Of this nylon is the generic name for certain types of thermoplastic polymers belonging to the class polyamides.

Migraine and Masticatory Muscle Volume, Bite Force, and Craniofacial Morphology

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, 2001
The purpose of this investigation was to compare the masticatory muscle volume, bite force, and craniofacial morphology of migrainous subjects with age‐ and sex‐matched controls. Ten adult dentate migraineurs were matched with 10 dentate age‐ and sex‐matched controls.

Improving masticatory performance, bite force, nutritional state and patient's satisfaction with implant overdentures: a systematic review of the literature.

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2015
Oral function with removable dentures is improved when dental implants are used for support. A variety of methods is used to measure change in masticatory performance, bite force, patient's satisfaction and nutritional state.

Endurance tests of the masticatory system on different bite force levels

European Journal of Oral Sciences, 1988
Abstract — Endurance tests of the masticatory system were performed in three different groups of healthy volunteers in order to investigate the relation between bite force and endurance time on different force levels. The subjects clenched a bite fork until exhaustion.

Force ratio in masticatory muscles after total replacement of the temporomandibular joint.

Acta of Bioengineering and Biomechanics, 2016
The temporomandibular (TM) joint is one of the most active joints in the human body, and any defect in this joint has a significant impact on the quality of life.

Evaluation of masticatory performance and bite force in children with sleep bruxism

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2012
Summary  The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between masticatory performance (MP) and bite force (BF) in children with sleep bruxism (SB) during the mixed dentition stage, considering also the occlusal characteristics. The sample was composed by 52 healthy children of both genders, aged 6–10 years.

Masticatory Force and Function in Patients with Hemispheric Brain Infarction and Hemiplegia

Journal of Dental Research, 1999
Recent functional animal studies have reported that the motor control of masticatory muscle function is bilaterally guided by both hemispheres, which may fundamentally differ from the cortical control of limb muscle function. In this study, we investigated whether unilateral cortical brain infarction induces different impairments in masticatory and ...
