Abstract

This article reviews the various methods used in dentistry to determine masticatory pressure and efficiency, highlighting their importance in diagnosing conditions related to the masticatory system. By determining chewing pressure and efficiency, dentists can tailor treatment plans to address specific problems and improve patients' oral health. Understanding the importance of chewing function assessment can lead to increased quality of life and improved overall health of individuals.
