00 · BILATERAL INNOBYTE

Bite force
is a real
number.

Bilateral Innobyte measures occlusal force separately for the left and right side — in newtons, in just seconds. It replaces subjective evaluation with hard data for the chart and for the patient.

01 · Why measure bite force

Two extremes that fundamentally change the treatment plan.

Articulating paper shows contact — it doesn't show force. And force decides whether the restoration will hold, when an implant is the right call, and when ceramic will fail before it's even placed.

Scenario 1
> 1000N

High bite force

  • Excessive force accelerates wear of the patient's own teeth and the risk of prosthetic failure.
  • It often leads to disputes between patient and dentist over failed treatment or repeated repairs.
  • A measured value entered into the chart protects the clinician in case of complaint.
Guidance for this scenario
Scenario 2
< 400N

Low bite force

  • Often caused by tooth loss, reduced muscle tone, or poor prosthetic reconstruction.
  • In seniors it correlates with a poor, carbohydrate-heavy diet — higher risk of obesity and type II diabetes.
  • Measured data are clear evidence for indicating dental implants and the key to an effective treatment plan.

03 · What Innobyte does

Six things articulating paper will never show you.

Articulating paper records contact. Innobyte adds the hard numbers — force in newtons, the difference between sides, a value for the chart.

01

Detect at-risk
patients.

Quickly and accurately identifies patients with extreme or deficient bite force — before a restoration fails.

02

Evaluate prosthetics

Helps you assess the quality and overall function of finished prosthetic restorations in seconds.

03

Bilateral measurement

Separate values for left and right reveal load asymmetry that other methods miss.

04

A number for the chart

The measured value belongs in the patient's record — it protects the clinician in case of complaint and educates the patient.

786N · recordedNormal
05

Before and after.

Measure bite force before treatment and after the restoration is in place. Restoration success becomes a number — not the patient’s subjective feel.

06

Geriatric screening.

A force below 400 N in a fully dentate adult flags neurological evaluation. Weak bite correlates with cognitive decline in older patients.

04 · Measurement workflow

Four steps. No training.

  1. 01

    Prep

    Slide a single-use protective sleeve onto the bilateral mouthpiece. No complicated calibration.

  2. 02

    Bite

    The patient bites on both sides. The device captures left and right force independently.

  3. 03

    Read

    The display shows the value in newtons for each side as well as the total bite force.

  4. 04

    Record

    Enter the value in the chart in a visible place. Tell the patient which zone they fall into.

05 · GUIDANCE FOR CLINICIANS

What to do based on measured values.

Clinical guidance from doc. MUDr. Radek Mounajjed. The full version including references is in the PDF and the course on the Cicero Edu portal.

Treatment guidance

Prevention

  • Provide a night guard.
  • Cover teeth with large fillings or cracks with a protective crown.
  • Regularly check canine guidance.
  • Ensure the smoothness of ceramic occlusal contacts; polish rough surfaces.
  • Enter the most recent bite-force value in the patient's chart.

Conservative dentistry

  • For composite fillings, combine with a glass-fibre-reinforced composite.
  • After endodontic treatment, do not delay placing crowns.
  • Weakened non-vital teeth with insufficient bone support are better extracted and replaced with implants.

Prosthetics

  • Use monolithic crowns; avoid layered ceramics.
  • The ideal zirconia is 3–4 % Y, e.g. YML KATANA.
  • Avoid large bridges — ideally one pontic with a wide connector.
  • Cement ceramic crowns only with composite cement (Panavia V5).
  • Mini-invasive prosthetics (preparation under 1 mm) are not recommended.
  • Veneers require strict adherence to a protected occlusion concept.
  • Solo crowns on implants should be relieved occlusally by at least 40 μm.
  • Create broad occlusal contacts instead of point contacts (sharp cusps).
06 · Bite force in context

Human bite on the scale of the animal kingdom.

For perspective — an average adult exerts around 700 N. Values above 1000 N already mean elevated risk for the patient's own teeth and any restoration.

10 · Scientific evidence

Not an anecdote. A parameter.

Peer-reviewed literature and internal clinical outcomes from KUBE Innovation. Bite force is a documented prognostic factor for restoration longevity and implant planning.

+24%more fillings converted to crowns when bite force guides the decision.
+41%more implant restorations indicated when patients see their bite force in newtons.
+68%more night guards prescribed and accepted when measured bruxism risk is documented.

Anecdotal results from an internal client survey conducted by Kube Innovation.

Clinical advisor
Articulating paper shows you where the teeth meet. Innobyte shows you with what force — and that's the information that drives decisions about prosthetics, implants and prevention.
