Masticatory performance of unilateral chewing and free chewing

Odontology
This study aims to clarify whether there is a difference in masticatory performance between unilateral chewing and free chewing. The amount of glucose eluted was measured three times when 36 healthy dentate adults chewed gummy jelly for 20 s using two different chewing methods: unilateral chewing on the preferred chewing side and free chewing.
