About this study
Official title: Chewing Side Preference is Associated With Hemispheric Laterality in Healthy Adults
The study is aimed to investigate if chewing side preference (CSP) can be used as another indicator of hemispheric laterality in healthy adults. Healthy volunteers with no oral/dental problems with Angle I occlusion relationship and without any missing teeth will be included in the study. The CSP will be determined with the visual analog scale (VAS), which is the highly reliable method. Laterality test will be used to determine the preferred side for hands, feet, ears and eyes.

Lateral preference is important to determine hemispheric laterality, which is usually diagnosed by hand and other sidedness, including footedness, eyedness and earedness. study is aimed to investigate if chewing side preference (CSP) can be used as another indicator of hemispheric laterality in healthy adults.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Evaluation of chewing side preferenceOther
The visual analog scale (VAS) is used. The individual will be asked to make 1 mark on a 10-cm line with " always left" and "always right" at either end and with " no preference" in the middle.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Healthy volunteers | Other | Seventy-five healthy volunteers with no oral/dental problems with Angle I occlusion relationship and without any missing teeth will be included in the study. Evaluation of chewing side preference and laterality will be performed. Receives: Other: Evaluation of chewing side preference |
