Masticatory function in children with Down syndrome
Physiology & Behavior, 2021The objective was to study masticatory function of 8 to 10-year-old children with Down syndrome (DS) through the evaluation of maximum occlusal force and masticatory performance (via medium particle size) and compare it to that of children of the same age without DS.A convenience sample of eight, 8-10-year-old children with DS were included in this ...

Impairment of masticatory function in hemiplegia
Neurology, 1988We studied masseter muscle function in 15 hemiplegic patients. Direct motor responses to stimulation of the masseteric nerve were normal. Voluntary activity at maximum strength was reduced on the paretic side. The jaw jerk was symmetric, but facilitation by teeth clenching showed on the nonparetic side only. Masseter silent periods were ill-defined and

Masticatory function in hemimandibulectomy patients
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1992SummarySurgical resection of a segment or loss of continuity of the mandible can adversely affect most of the structures essential for mastication. Five subjects who had hemimandibular resections for cure of squamous cell carcinoma were studied. Masticatory function tests were conducted pre‐ and post‐surgery and post‐prosthetic rehabilitation.

Masticatory function in patients with xerostomia
Gerodontology, 1996The effects of reduced salivary output in patients suffering from xerostomia on masticatory function has not been previously studied. This study compares masticatory performance and kinematic activity of patients suffering from xerostomia with age‐, sex‐, and number of occluding pairs‐matched healthy controls.

Masticatory function and oral rehabilitation
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1974SummaryExamination of many different animal dentitions suggests that in those whose function is mastication rather than merely prehension, tooth wear is not only normal but essential to achieve full efficiency. A similar character is found in man among Eskimos and Aborigines where these people live on completely natural diets, and also in Anglo‐Saxon ...

Masticatory function—a review of the literature
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1975SummaryRecently, the authors realized that an evaluation of the literature on mastication had never been undertaken, and it is hoped that this review presented in three parts, will be of value, not only to the dental clinician, but to other scientists working in associated fields.The first paper discusses the form of the masticatory cycle in the ...

Masticatory function—a review of the literature
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1976SummaryA review and evaluation of the literature on mastication has been undertaken. Part Idiscusses the form of the masticatory cycle in the natural and artificial dentitions, including the controversial question of whether tooth contact occurs during function.

Masticatory Function with Implant-supported Overdentures
Journal of Dental Research, 2004The type of attachment that is used in implant-supported mandibular overdentures may influence the retention and stability of the prosthesis and, thus, masticatory function. In this within-subject cross-over clinical trial, we examined the hypothesis that greater retention and stability of the overdenture improve the masticatory function.

Functional masticatory evaluation in hemifacial microsomia
The European Journal of Orthodontics, 1995The features of hemifacial microsomia with unilateral condylar hypoplasia in a 9-year-old female patient were analysed in a multidisciplinary fashion. Cephalometric roentgenograms revealed malformation of the mandible, with the right condylar process being smaller than the left.
