The strength of a wolf's jaws makes it possible to bite through a moose femur in six to eight bites. In comparison, a German shepherd has a biting pressure of 750 pounds per square inch. A human has a much lower biting pressure of 300 pounds per square inch.

Q. How strong are their jaws?

Tasmanian Devil - Frequently Asked Questions
In absolute terms, there is no good measurement because you never know how hard they are biting. That applies to most animals but we do know the relative strength. Devils have jaws of biting power as strong as a dog about 4 times their weight. So a 10 kg devil has as powerful a bite as a 40 kg dog. In this respect they are very similar to hyenas, particularly the spotted hyena.

Why is straightening your teeth and jaws important?

Untitled Document
A good alignment and meeting of upper and lower teeth reflects normal healthy cranio-facial development. Therefore, correcting misaligned or improperly positioned teeth and jaws helps to restore normal cranio-facial features and balance. This is significant because jaws and face relate directly to the cranial base that supports the brain, its nervous and circulatory system and the pituitary or master gland of the body.
