Factors affecting masticatory performance during the mixed dentition period.

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2022
BACKGROUND During the mixed dentition period, masticatory performance may temporarily decline as deciduous teeth are replaced by permanent teeth. This may lead to an insufficient intake of chewy foods.

The effect of experimental balancing interferences on masticatory performance

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2014
SummaryImmediate adaptation to experimental‐balancing interferences is known to affect jaw kinematics and electromyographic activity (EMG). However, little is known about the influence on masticatory performance parameters. This study hypothesises that balancing‐side interferences significantly reduce the performance of the masticatory system.

Effects of Class II intermaxillary elastics on masticatory muscle activity balance, occlusal contact area, and masticatory performance: A multicenter randomized controlled trial.

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2022
BACKGROUND Bilateral Class II intermaxillary elastics (CII elastics) are commonly used in orthodontics; however, the effects of CII elastics on masticatory muscle activity and the occlusal contact area have not been studied.

Relationship between Oral Sensitivity and Masticatory Performance

Journal of Dental Research, 2004
The size of a bolus determines how it will be manipulated in the mouth and swallowed. We hypothesized that mucosal sensitivity would be important for masticatory function. The accuracy of solid object size perception, spatial acuity, and food particle size reduction during mastication were measured in 22 healthy adults with/without topical anesthesia ...

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
