Effect of Masticatory Efficiency on the Occurrence of Gastric Distress

RICHARD D. MUMMA JR. 1 and KEITH QUINTON 1

1 School of Dentistry, University of California, Los Angeles and Gastroenterology Section, Veterans Administration Center, Los Angeles, California 90024

A group of 129 hospital patients were categorized according to whether they possessed masticating efficiency, which was represented by the presence or absence of posterior teeth. It was determined by examining the records of their hospital stays that masticating efficiency, as defined, did not significantly affect the occurrence of gastric distress.
