Evaluating the stomatognathic system indicated that women with clinically severe obesity have less masticatory efficiency than non-obese. Also, we found a positive influence of bariatric surgery in masticatory activity after 3 and 6 months. Thus, monitoring the parameters of the stomatognathic system could be important in the indication and outcomes of bariatric surgery.
