Chewing Performance Calculator: An interactive clinical method for quantifying masticatory performance

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 2021
There is a need to quantitatively differentiate between impaired and normal mastication by using straightforward and reliable methods because currently available methods are expensive, complex, and time-consuming.The purpose of this clinical study was to assess the reliability, validity, and clinical utility of a new Web-based software program designed

Relationship Between Chewing Rate and Masticatory Performance

CRANIO®, 2013
The influence of mandibular movement timing on food breakdown remains unclear. The authors, therefore, sought to relate chewing rate with masticatory performance. Chewing rate, defined as the number of masticatory cycles habitually achieved per minute, was measured in 55 healthy dentulous subjects (age, 22.2 +/- 5.0 years).

Relationship of masticatory mandibular movements to masticatory performance of dentate adults: a method study

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1998
This study evaluated a sieve method for measuring masticatory performance and determined the associations between masticatory performance and masticatory mandibular movements. Ten dentate adults and three complete denture‐wearing subjects participated in the study.

Gender difference in masticatory performance in dentate adults

Journal of Prosthodontic Research, 2012
To clarify whether there might be a gender difference in masticatory performance in dentate adults.Thirty male subjects and thirty female subjects were asked to chew gummy jelly on their habitual chewing side for 10, 15 and 20s and the amounts of glucose extraction were measured.

Factors affecting masticatory performance of Japanese children

International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry, 2009
Aim.  The aim of this study was to analyse occlusal parameters and body variables to examine the factors accounting for masticatory performance of Japanese children in relation to adults.Methods.  Sixty‐six children and 24 adults chewed three pieces of a colour‐changeable chewing gum, separately, for 30 s, 60 s, and 90 s. The colour change was measured

Predictive factors for masticatory performance in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Neuromuscular Disorders, 2014
Patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) report masticatory and swallowing problems. Such problems may cause complications such as choking, and feeling of food sticking in the throat. We investigated whether masticatory performance in DMD is objectively impaired, and explored predictive factors for compromised mastication.

Factors Influencing the Changes in Masticatory Performance: The Suita Study

JDR Clinical & Translational Research, 2018
Introduction: Although previous studies have identified various factors related to masticatory performance, which factors affect longitudinal changes in masticatory performance have not been clarified. Objectives: We aimed to clarify factors involved in changes to masticatory performance and construct models from factors related to masticatory ...

Morphological and masticatory performance variation of mouth behavior groups

Journal of Texture Studies, 2019
AbstractFood texture preference and product acceptance are hypothesized to be influenced by mouth behavior. Recent work identified four mouth behavior (MB) groups that describe most consumers in the United States: Chewers, Crunchers, Smooshers, and Suckers.

The influence of orthognathic surgery on masticatory performance in retrognathic patients

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2005
summary   Surgical correction of retrognathism may influence chewing performance and its underlying mechanisms selection and breakage of food particles. In this study we examined the hypothesis that treatment of this anomaly improves chewing performance.
