The relationships between mastication and cognitive function: A systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesJapanese Dental Science Review, 2023
Masticatory function such as chewing is expected to modify human cognitive function, and/or the possibility of improving cognitive function is also predicted. This systematic review investigated whether masticatory function affects cognitive function for

Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Transfection to Human Periosteal Cells Enhances Osteoblast Differentiation and Bone Formation

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
Periosteum has been demonstrated to contain mesenchymal progenitor cells differentiating to osteoblasts, and both bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) may play important roles in cell-based approaches to bone

Masticatory function and cognitive function

open access: yesOkajimas Folia Anatomica Japonica, 2010
Recent studies have suggest that masticatory (chewing) function is useful for maintaining neurocognitive function in the elderly. For example, a reduced ability to masticate, such as that resulting from toothlessness or soft-diet feeding, causes learning and memory deficits in aged animals and pathologic changes in the hippocampus.

Cognitive changes and neural correlates after oral rehabilitation procedures in older adults: a protocol for an interventional study

open access: yesBMC Oral Health, 2021
Background Epidemiological studies show an association between masticatory function and cognitive impairment. This has further strengthened the notion that tooth loss and impaired masticatory function may be risk factors for dementia and cognitive ...
