Differentiation of Feeding Behaviors Based on Masseter and Supra-Hyoid Muscle Activity
Older adults with disorders of mastication and swallowing are often fed soft foods such as jelly or puree. The texture of such semi-solid foods allows them to be squeezed between the tongue and palate rather than being chewed. However, it is difficult to

Masticatory performance in patients with jaw muscle pain: A case–control study
IntroductionMasticatory function is often impaired in patients with painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD); therefore, more detailed studies on comminution and mixing ability are warranted in well-defined TMD patients with chronic myalgia.
