ABSTRACT

Introduction. The maximum bite force (MFM) refers to the maximum occlusal force that a person can exercise during chewing. According to the analyzed classification of the different measuring devices of the FM, it is possible to affirm that the values of MFM registered, depend to a large extent on the method of measurement used, so the T-Scan® EH2 (Research) system was used. On the other hand, bruxism is considered as a parafunctional activity, without any function or utility, so that it does not produce benefits to the stomatognathic system. Objective. To correlate MFM (kgf) in patients with and without bruxism, using the T-Scan® EH-2 system in the Masticatory Physiology Laboratory (LFM) of the Autonomus Metropolitan University campus Xochimilco, Ciudad de México. Method. Observational, transversal, descriptive study. Young adult participants, with complete permanent dentition, both sexes, with and without bruxism, who accepted informed consent. Patients were positioned vertically and positioned the sensor, between the arcades exercising their MFM. The SPSS version 20 was used, and the Spearman Rho Correlation and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results. 60 individuals, 23.3 % men, 76.7 % women, age (22 ± 3 years), group: A) 30 bruxist patients, B) 30 non-bruxists. The MFM in bruxists (40.47 ± 12.89 kgf) and non-bruxists (46. 97 ± 14.37 kgf). Statistically significant differences were not found in any of the tests (p › 0.05). Conclusion. The average number of MFM in patients without bruxism was higher than in bruxists, so it is necessary to include other variables such as degree of wear of dental surfaces.
