Reliability of a New Bite Force Measure and Biomechanics of Modified Long Attack in Police Dogs

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Information on the biomechanics of police dogs’ tasks is important in understanding their work-related injuries and dysfunctions. This study aimed to develop and test a measurement tool for dogs’ functional bite force and to report modified long attack ...

Validity and sensitivity of a human cranial finite element model: Implications for comparative studies of biting performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Finite element analysis (FEA) is a modelling technique increasingly used in anatomical studies investigating skeletal form and function. In the case of the cranium this approach has been applied to both living and fossil taxa to (for example) investigate

Bite force in temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) and healthy complete denture wearers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The signs and symptoms of temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) may contribute to reduce bite force and muscular activity. The aims of this study were to compare bite force in complete denture wearers with TMD (TMD group) and without TMD (healthy group ...

Influence of body position on maximum bite force

open access: yesManual Therapy, Posturology & Rehabilitation Journal, 2017
Objective: To evaluate the maximum bite force (MBF) in subjects with and without Temporomandibular Dysfunction (TMD), in threedifferent positions (sitting, lying and standing). Methods: The sample consisted of 60 individuals, aged between 19 and 35 years,who were divided into two groups: with TMD (n = 30) and without TMD (n = 30).

The Better to Eat You With: Bite Force in the Naked Mole-Rat (Heterocephalus glaber) Is Stronger Than Predicted Based on Body Size

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2019
Naked mole-rats (Heterocephalus glaber) are subterranean rodents that utilize their incisors for feeding, chisel-tooth digging of complex tunnel systems, social interactions, and defense in their eusocial colony structure.
