Summary This study tested the hypothesis that denture instability limits the amount of voluntary muscular effort generated by denture wearers. Seventeen edentulous subjects (seven men, 10 women; mean age 60·3 ± 13·0 years) with newly acquired implant‐retained mandibular overdentures and a conventional maxillary denture participated. Maximum bite forces and corresponding electromyographic (EMG) activity...
Summary Although it is well known that conventional denture wearers have lower maximum bite forces than dentate subjects, no previous studies have compared the strength of the jaw muscles between these two groups. This study compared maximum bite forces, electromyographic (EMG) activity and estimated jaw muscle strength among three groups: (i) 17 edentulous subjects using newly acquired implant‐retained...
