Previous research has demonstrated that the concentric muscle strength of knee extension exerted at slow to medium angular velocities is increased by teeth clenching. This study evaluated the isokinetic eccentric strength of knee extensors at 4 angular velocities (60, 120, 180 and 240 degrees per second) with and without teeth clenching on the Cybex 6000 Extremity Testing and Rehabilitation System. Twelve healthy adult male (26.8±1.8 years) volunteered for the study. Peak torque per body weight and average power per body weight were analyzed. The results demonstrated that peak torque per body weight accompanied by teeth clenching was significantly increased at 60, 120, 180 and 240 deg/s by 9.5%, 8.2%, 8.2% and 9.8%, respectively (p<0.01) . Similarly average power per body weight during teeth clenching was significantly higher at 60, 120, 180 and 240 deg/s by 9.1%, 9.5%, 9.4% and 7.7%, respectively (p<0.05) . These findings suggest that teeth clenching is a factor that leads to augmented eccentric strength of knee extensors. Its effect appears to be independent of angular velocity.
