chewing/biting

These are the terms used in medical texts (also mastication but for more technical studies), see also below thanks

https://rarediseases.org/rare-diseases/hallermann-streiff-sy...
Example sentence:

Parameters for function were occlusion, airway, mouth opening and chewing-biting perception of patient pre and post distraction.

Without enamel to protect the softer interior parts of your teeth, they can't stand up to the stress of natural biting and chewing.

Peer comment(s):

agree Eileen Brophy : I would use biting
18 mins
Thanks so much!
disagree Paulina Sobelman : Morder is to bite and Masticar is to chew but the article specifically uses in Spanish mordisquear which would more properly be "to nibble", even if also in Spanish one does not usually associate "mordisqueo" with "bruxismo"...and rather a stronger bite

Maybe but this is what I've seen used in many publications, thanks anyway :)
agree Tomasso : ay, talvez no es correcto, but everybody out in the west say I bit my tongue, mis dos centimos, centavos?

gnawing

Pienso que nibbling, como ya se ha sugerido, es una buena opción. Pero gnawing también puede servir, dejo un ejemplo ilustrativo.
Example sentence:

Can't stop gnawing on the inside skin of your mouth?
