Maximum occlusal bite force in pre-school children with different occlusal patterns
Journal of Clinical and Experimental Dentistry, 2018 This study was carried out to record maximum occlusal bite force (MOBF) in pre-school children with different occlusal patterns.A randomly selected sample of 1085 kindergarten children in primary dentition stage were selected. The age of subjects ranged between 3-6 years (averaged 4.90 ± 0.86 years). The subjects were divided into 3 groups according to
