Abstract

This article presents a commentary on the practice of mastication in humans. It discusses key points emerged from a group of studies, including a need to differentiate impaired from normal mastication and the claim that the concept of masticatory efficiency is equivocal. In addition, the article outlines possible criteria of impaired mastication.
