Biting Objects

A biting object is a tool used by dentists to measure the force of a patient's bite. It is typically made of plastic or metal and is placed in the patient's mouth to assess the strength and symmetry of their bite, which can help diagnose and treat issues such as jaw pain, TMJ disorder, and teeth grinding. It can also be used to check the fit of dental appliances such as dentures or orthodontic devices.
