The coefficient of swallowable composition of masticated hard-baked soya beans.
In addition to the graphical representation of swallowable composition (SC) of masticated food, an index--the coefficient of swallowable composition (CSC)--has been proposed in this study. This index was tested using hard-baked soya beans on various types of dentitions. The value of CSC ranged from +24 to -14 in full dentition and full denture wearers respectively.
