Application of a low-adhesive color-developing chewing gum system to patients with osseointegrated implant-supported prostheses.
Few methods have been described that can quantitatively evaluate masticatory function. This study investigated the usefulness of a low-adhesive color-developing chewing gum system for the evaluation of patients with implant-supported prostheses. Fifteen dentate subjects and 22 patients with dental implants participated in this study. The color developed in the gum after chewing reflects masticatory function and is evaluated quantitatively with a color-analyzing system. The results indicate that this system can be used to evaluate occlusal function, and they confirm the importance of stable prostheses for higher masticatory function.

A computerized method for evaluating distribution of occlusal load on implant-supported fixed cantilever prostheses.
An investigation was conducted to determine whether Dental Prescale, a material that undergoes a graded color-producing chemical reaction when force is applied, could be used to evaluate occlusal load distribution objectively and quantitatively when combined with computer analysis. Ten patients with an implant-supported fixed cantilever prosthesis and a complete conventional maxillary denture were studied. The results indicated that the system can be used to evaluate occlusal load distribution with sufficient reproducibility. However, in its present form, the system is somewhat cumbersome, and its use must now be considered experimental. Further refinement is necessary to allow easier clinical use.
