Abstract

The objective of the present study was to investigate the distribution of static tactile thresholds in healthy individuals, using a Semmes-Weinstein sensory test.<BR>The sensory test was conducted on 25 males and females (50 sides) in total. Average age of subjects was 23.8±3.1years.Test sites were the lower lip, oral angle, and mental ramification of the mental nerve. For comparison, the test was also conducted on the index finger.<BR>Mean threshold for each test site was as follows: labial inferior rami.2.83±0.76gf/mm2, oral angle rami.2.76±0.47gf/mm2, mental rami. 2.78±0.76gf/mm2, and index finger 3.66±0.71gf/mm2. Statistical analysis showed no significant difference among the three mental nerve sites, but significant differences existed between the index finger and the three mental nerve sites.<BR>The above findings suggest that the standard range for filament marking is 1.65-2.44 (2.52-4.23 gf/mm2).
