- ArticleJemt T, Karlsson S, Hedegård B.J Prosthet Dent. 1979 Dec;42(6):669-73.Mandibular chewing movements of 10 young adults were registered with LED. The registrations were performed manually, and the following observations were made: 1. The mean cycle duration was reduced from 1.12 seconds for cycle 1 to 0.76 second for cycle 16. 2. The duration of the opening phase appeared to be shorter than that of the closing phase. 3. The maximal vertical movement of the mandible decreased throughout the chewing period. The results obtained in this study agree with those reported by other investigators and indicate that a system using LED is suitable for analyzing the mandibular movement pattern in clinical situations.
