The aim of this study was to clarify the factors related to the formation of the buccal mucosa ridging, which has been mentioned to be a clinical sign of clenching. Twenty-one individuals were investigated and divided into three groups: (i) those without buccal mucosa ridging, (ii) the buccal mucosa ridging located in all the posterior teeth region, and (iii) the buccal mucosa ridging corresponding only to the molar teeth region. A pressure sensor was used and placed at two points: first upper premolar and second upper molar. The recording tasks were: (i) silent reading at rest, (ii) light voluntary clenching, (iii) maximum voluntary clenching, (iv) holding the cheeks tightly against the teeth while light voluntary clenching, (v) holding the cheeks tightly against the teeth without tooth contact, (vi) pulling angle of mouth laterally while light voluntary clenching, (vii) pulling angle of mouth laterally without tooth contact and (viii) swallowing. No significant differences were found between groups in all the recording tasks except for the swallowing, at which significant difference (P < 0.05) was found between the groups of individuals having buccal mucosa ridging and without it. Based on these results it became clear that the buccal mucosa pressure exerted on the buccal aspect of teeth during swallowing plays an important role in the formation of buccal mucosa ridging.
