Masticatory function—a review of the literature

Abstract: A review and evaluation of the literature on mastication has been undertaken. Part I discusses the form of the masticatory cycle in the natural and artificial dentitions, including the controversial question of whether tooth contact occurs during function. Part II reviews the literature concerning the speed of movement of the mandible, rate of chewing, and the forces developed in chewing. Part III describes masticatory efficiency and performance, the effect of food on masticatory function, and incorporates a s… Show more

“…The diameter of the identer was 6 mm, therefore comparable to a molar cusp 28 . The applied load was 98 N, which adequatley simulates the physiological biting force of posterior teeth 51, 52 . The simulated five-year ageing of the all-ceramic partial coverage restorations had no effect on the marginal fit.…”

“…The MBF is regulated by the nervous, muscular and skeletal systems [2]. Exertion of a sufficient bite force is an indicator of normal masticatory function [3]. Therefore, many clinicians suggest MBF measurement as a useful method for understanding masticatory function in patients with stomatognatic system disorders [4][5][6][7][8][9][10].…”

“…In the study by Truninger et al,24 which reflected the simulation of loading condition in anterior portion, oblique force was loaded to abutment in 30 angles to the long axis of the crown. Bates et al25 reported that the maximum force of mastication in the first human molar was 300 - 500 N. Richter26 reported that the vertical load in molar and premolar was 120 - 150 N. In our study, we designed the loading position to be 3 mm distant from the centre of the crown; therefore, this experimental design simulated the lateral masticatory force. Although the force loaded in the current study was less than the average masticatory force reported in the literature, it was believed to sufficiently simulate the intraoral environment by reconstructing the dynamic intraoral masticatory forces using the chewing simulator.…”
