Occlusal loading during clenching and biting is achieved by the action of the masticatory system, and forms the basis for the evaluation of the functional performance of prosthodontic and maxillofacial components. This review provides an overview of (i) current bite force measurement techniques and their limitations and (ii) the use of computational modelling to predict bite force. A brief simulation study highlighting the challenges of current computational dental models is also presented.
Appropriate studies were used to highlight the development and current bite force measurement methodologies and state-of-the-art simulation for computing bite forces using biomechanical models.
While a number of strategies have been developed to measure occlusal forces in three-dimensions, the use of strain-gauges, piezo-electric sensors and pressure sheets remain the most widespread. In addition to experimental-based measurement techniques, bite force may be also estimated using computational models of the masticatory system. Simulations of different bite force models clearly show that the use of three-dimensional force measurements enriches the evaluation of masticatory functional performance.
Hence, combining computational modelling with three-dimensional force measurement techniques can significantly improve the evaluation of masticatory system and the functional performance of prosthodontic components.
咀嚼时的咬合加载是由咀嚼系统的作用实现的，这是评估修复体和颌面部件功能性能的基础。本综述概述了（i）当前的咬合力测量技术及其局限性，以及（ii）使用计算模型预测咬合力的情况。还简要介绍了一项强调当前计算牙科模型挑战的模拟研究。
使用适当的研究来突出显示咬合力测量方法的发展和现状，以及使用生物力学模型计算咬合力的最新模拟。
虽然已经开发了许多策略来在三维空间中测量咬合力，但应变计、压电传感器和压力片的使用仍然最为广泛。除了基于实验的测量技术外，还可以使用咀嚼系统的计算模型来估计咬合力。不同咬合力模型的模拟清楚地表明，使用三维力测量可以丰富咀嚼功能性能的评估。
因此，将计算建模与三维力测量技术相结合，可以显著改善对咀嚼系统和修复体部件功能性能的评估。
