    Masticating juicers [ edit ] A masticating juicer known as cold press juicer or slow juicer uses a single auger to compact and crush produce into smaller sections before squeezing out its juice along a static screen while the pulp is expelled through a separate outlet.

  5. Juicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juicing

    Masticating (also referred to as cold pressed [5]) – utilizes a single gear driven by a motor; slower operation; kneads and grinds items placed in a chute Centrifugal – (also referred to as high-speed juicing) – utilizes a spinning blade that resembles a grated basket; faster operation; quickly grinds items and discards pulp in a receptacle

  6. Vegetable juice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegetable_juice

    Masticating juicers employ a slow-geared grinding mechanism. A cheaper and faster alternative uses centrifugal force to achieve separation. The slower speed of the masticating process is held to protect the vegetables from oxidation and heat (from friction), reducing nutrient breakdown. Advocates of masticating juicers often cite the ...

  7. Masticatory force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masticatory_force

    The first device for measuring masticatory force (gnathodynamometer) was created by Black in 1893.He determined that periodontal tissue is an important issue, which impacts the amount of force.

  8. Complete denture occlusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete_denture_occlusion

    When exploring different complete denture occlusal schemes, it is more useful to define occlusion as the relative movement of one object to another viz the dynamic relationship between mandible to the maxillae during function. Bilateral balanced occlusion and non-balanced occlusion are two separate entities that make up complete denture occlusion.
