چکیده

With the experimental design of this study the following conclusions were reached. 1. Biting force during maximum clenching was the greatest when the occlusal plane was made parallel to the ala-tragus line. It decreased when the occlusal plane was inclined about 5 degrees anteriorly or about 5 degrees posteriorly. 2. The efficiency of biting force exertion during maximum clenching showed the best value when the occlusal plane was made parallel to the ala-tragus line. 3. Muscle activity during clenching at various given forces was least when the occlusal plane was made parallel to the ala-tragus line. The anteroposterior inclination of the occlusal plane tends to affect the biting force, and the method with the ala-tragus line seems to be the most reasonable for occlusal plane orientation.

The anterior component of occlusal force revisited: direct measurement and theoretical considerations.

BACKGROUND The anterior component of occlusal force (ACF), considered to result from the mesial inclination of teeth relative to the occlusal plane, has been estimated by indirectly measuring contact point tightness (CPT) through interproximal insertion of metal strips. ACF has been observed concurrently with a posterior component, whose theoretical origin is difficult to explain. OBJECTIVES ...

Maximum occlusal force relationship with head and facial pattern in dental students of Shahed university

Background and Aims: The vertical growth pattern of the face depends on several factors. One of these factors can be the muscle strength of the jaw. Maximum occlusal force (MOF) can be considered as an index to measure the function of the muscles of the masticatory system. Despite the various studies, the relationship between the facial pattern and muscle function is still controversial. Accord...
