The techniques used in dentistry which enable the monitoring of mastication include gnathosonics, electromyography, cinematography and the use of various electronic, intra‐oral, instruments. The forces involved during the masticatory cycle have been estimated using a variety of both extra‐and intra‐oral devices. The possible implications of this knowledge are discussed in relation to obtaining greater information from instrumental techniques, developing more meaningticl mechanical test methods, improving methodology used in the establishment of texture panels and in acquiring a greater understanding of results obtained from such sensory evaluations.
