The measurement of bite force is increasingly gaining importance in dentistry. This preliminary report evaluates the maximum voluntary bite force (MVBF) of young healthy individuals with normal occlusion and correlates the effect of age and gender with the maximum bite force (MBF).
405 participants in the age group of 18 to 40 years were selected from the outpatient department meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria. MVBF was measured with the help of a digital device called "Byte" at incisors, right first molar, and left first molar region.
There was a strong correlation between age with bite force. Bite force increased with age. Males had more bite force than females. The posterior region had higher bite force than the anterior region.
Measurement of bite force is very important for every patient undergoing restorative treatment. The "Byte" device was found to be very efficient.
咬合力的测量在牙科领域日益重要。本初步报告评估了咬合正常的年轻健康个体的最大自主咬合力（MVBF），并将年龄和性别的影响与最大咬合力（MBF）相关联。
从符合纳入和排除标准的门诊部选取了405名年龄在18至40岁之间的参与者。借助一种名为“Byte”的数字设备在切牙、右侧第一磨牙和左侧第一磨牙区域测量MVBF。
年龄与咬合力之间存在很强的相关性。咬合力随年龄增长而增加。男性的咬合力大于女性。后部区域的咬合力高于前部区域。
咬合力测量对于每位接受修复治疗的患者都非常重要。发现“Byte”设备非常有效。
