【 摘 要 】

Masticatory performance has been assessed with varying methods throughout last century. Some of them use natural food as a test material and some others use artificial components instead of food. There have also been proposed various systems of processing the crushed material, such as fractional sieving, spectrophotometric analysis, compressed air, area observation, sugar concentration, photometric and optical scanning. This paper describes and discusses some relevant methods in the history of the evaluation of masticatory performance.
