Structured AbstractObjectivesMaxillofacial morphology and malocclusion are related to maximum occlusal force (MOF). Although it has been reported that MOF was related to handgrip strength (HS), the relationships between maxillofacial morphology/malocclusion and HS remain unclear. This study aimed to examine the relationships between maxillofacial morphology, malocclusion and HS.Setting and sample populationEighty‐five women with malocclusion, aged 18‐40 years, were selected.Materials and methodsLateral cephalometric radiographs (SNA, SNB, ANB, mandibular plane‐FH, and gonial angles, overjet and overbite), the Peer Assessment Rating (PAR) index and HS were measured. Subjects were classified by the Japanese normal mean value of cephalometric analysis or the reference value which was defined by degree of malocclusion in each PAR index measurement item (small/low: value < mean/reference value, large/high: value ≧ mean/reference value). Measurements were then compared between groups.ResultsHS of the large‐gonial angle group was lower than that of the small‐gonial angle group. In the small‐overbite group or high‐transverse (PAR index score showing crossbite/scissor bite in the canine and molars) group, HS in the large‐gonial angle group was significantly lower than that in the small‐gonial angle group.ConclusionsOur results suggest that gonial angle is the largest factor affecting HS. HS may be especially low in those subjects with a large gonial angle and a small overbite or a crossbite/scissor bite in the molar section.
