The Purposes of this study are to determine differences of body temperature between Right and left sublingual areas itself and differences depending upon the utilization rate of mastication according to time intervals and to determine the length of time neccessary for temperature taking. This Experiment was conducted from Oct 6 through Oct 11, 1975. in which accurately tested clinical Centigrade Thermometers have been utilized. Two thermometers were inserted simultaneously under the right and left sublingual areas and the mouth kept closed while thermometers were in Place. Temperature readings were done at three minutes, five minutes and ten minutes. These procedures were repeated one hundred times to different subjects and the data were analyzed statistically by means of the t-test and the F-ratio. Under the 10 hypotheses designed for this study, The findings obtained are as follows; 1. The body temperatures taken at 3, 5,10 minutes intervals in the left sublingual areas were significantly higher than in the right sublingual areas. The average differences of body temperature between the right and left sublingual areas were 0.09degrees C, 0.05degrees C and 0.03degrees C in the oder of time interval of 3, 5, and 10 minutes. 2. The body temperatures taken in the right sublingual areas among three different temperature readings, 3,5 and 10 minutes were significantly different in 57 subjects who have been utilizing evenly both sides of the Teeth. The average readings in a group taking for 3 minutes was 37.04degrees C, for 5 minutes 37.15degrees C and for 10minutes 37.28degrees C.. 3. The body temperatures taken in the left sublingual areas among three different temperature readings, 3, 5 and 10 minutes were significantly different in 57 subjects who have been utilizing evenly both sides of the teath. The average reading in a group taking for 3 minutes was 37.13degrees C, for 5 minutes 37.2degrees C and for 10 minutes 37.31 degrees C. 4. Oral temperatures taken at 3, 5, 10 minutes intervals at the side of mouth utilized for more frequent mastication were Significantly higher than the other side. The average differences of body temperature between more frequently utilized side and Less frequently utilized side were 0.08degrees C, 0.08degrees C and 0.09degrees C in the order of time interval of 3,5 and 10 minutes. 5. Oral temperature taken at the side of mouth more frequently utilized for mastication among three different temperature readings, 3, 5 and 10 minutes were significantly different in 43 subjects who have been unequally utilizing either side of teeth. The average reading in a group taking for 3 minutes was 37.09degrees C, for 5 minutes 37.17degrees C and for 10 minutes 37.3degrees C. 6. Oral temoerature taken at the side of mouth less frequently utilized for mastication among three different temperature readings 3, 5 and 10 minutes were significantly different in 43 subjects who have been unequa.lly utilizing either side of teeth. The average reading in a group taking for 3 minutes was 37.01degrees C, for 5 minutes 37.09degrees C and for 10 minutes 37.21degrees C. As a result of this study, these differences among time intervals were statistically significant, but there were not so much differences as to be considered important in the clinical practice. Therefore, there would be clinically little difference between two groups who are taking for 3 minutes and for 10 minutes.
