Nankali's Masticatory Force Systematization force of the masticatory system and discovered the differences in the produced force, which was approximately doubled. The periodontal system controls automatically the measure of mastication force in this process and the jaw elevator muscles develop the main forces used in mastication. Dr. Weber worked out that 1 cm cross section surface area of any masticatory muscle can produce approximately 10 kg force. The following average surfaces were found: temporalis - 8 cm, masseter - 7.5 cm, and medial pterygoid - 4 cm which makes a total of 19.5cm. However, this force in some people is measured up to 3900N
Arches of the foot by bipedally walking apes, which must directly or indirectly reflect the pressure they exert to support and propel themselves do suggest that they exert lower foot pressure under the medial part of their midfoot. However, human feet, and the human medial longitudinal arch, differ in that the anterior part of the foot is medially twisted on the posterior part of the foot, so that all the toes may contact the ground at the same time, and the twisting is so marked that the most medial toe, the big toe or hallux, (in some individuals the second toe) tends to exert
