Mastication and Maturity: A Longitudinal Study in Pigs

Susan W. Herring

Department of Oral Anatomy, College of Dentistry, University of Illinois at the Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois 60680, USA

The electromyography af mastication was studied longitudinally in miniature pigs, and the effects of age and food type were assessed. Within-individual variation was large relative to between-individual variation. Duration of chewing strokes increased with age and with more resistant foods. The results are compared with data on human beings and other animals.
