Using both quartz- and foil-based piezo-electric force transducers, occlusal forces during swallow, simulated chewing, and maximum effort were evaluated in 19 long-face and 21 normal individuals. Forces were measured at 2.5 mm and 6.0 mm molar separation. Long-face individuals have significantly less occlusal force during maximum effort, simulated chewing, and swallowing than do individuals with normal vertical facial dimensions. No differences in forces between 2.5- and 6.0-mm jaw separation were observed for either group. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
