Association between masticatory ability and oral functions

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Dentistry, 2020
Mastication is the process of breaking ingested food with the teeth and mixing it with saliva to form a mass that is easy to swallow. However, few studies have reported on oral functions, such as occlusal force, tongue pressure, and mastication. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between masticatory function and oral functions ...

Unilateral mastication‐induced memory deficits linked to disrupted hippocampal cholesterol metabolism in rats

VIEW, EarlyView.
Unilateral mastication, a common oral habit, induces cognitive decline in rats by disrupting hippocampal cholesterol metabolism. It triggers astrocyte hyperplasia, enhances cholesterol synthesis, impairs transport/degradation, and reduces 24‐hydroxycholesterol (24‐OHC), ultimately damaging synaptic function.
