Abstract
Purpose: It has been reported that mastication affects the postural control system and enhances postural stability during upright standing. However, the mechanism has not been fully elucidated. The purpose of this study was to verify whether there are correlations among head and trunk sways, and foot pressure distribution during chewing in the standing position. Methods: A total of 32 healthy young male subjects were evaluated. The MatScanTM system was used to analyze changes in foot pressure distribution (center of foot pressure: COP) and the three-dimensional motion analysis system was used to analyze changes in head and trunk positions while subjects remained standing position with rest position, centric occlusion, and chewing. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients. Results: There was a significant positive correlation between trunk sway value and COP areas in all three studied test conditions (correlation 0.75 to 0.95, P < 0.01). During mastication, significant positive correlations were also found between head and trunk sway values (correlation 0.70, P < 0.05) and between head sway value and COP areas (correlation 0.69 to 0.78, P < 0.01). Conclusions: There are significant positive correlations among head and trunk sways, and foot pressure distribution during chewing in the standing position.
