| Research Abstract |
For an appropriate diagnosis of removable dentures, it is important to assess the biomechanical characteristics of the denture-supporting tissues.
In an effort to assess the viscoelasticity of the oral mucosa, the usefulness of a newly developed simultaneous measuring system of load and thickness was evaluated. This study outlines an establishment of simultaneous measurement method for load and change of the mucosa thickness.
Calculated elasticity of 45°probe was as well as 90°probe. For the palate mucosa, calculated elasticity can be assessed by 45°probe.
