Evaluation of masticatory performance and bite force in children with sleep bruxism

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2012
Summary  The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between masticatory performance (MP) and bite force (BF) in children with sleep bruxism (SB) during the mixed dentition stage, considering also the occlusal characteristics. The sample was composed by 52 healthy children of both genders, aged 6–10 years.

Effect of Jaw Opening on Masticatory Muscle EMG-Force Characteristics

Journal of Dental Research, 1993
This study was designed to evaluate the way in which changes in vertical jaw opening affected the relative contributions of various masticatory muscles to bite force production. EMG activity was recorded simultaneously from the masseter, and anterior, middle, and posterior temporalis muscles, during controlled isometric biting at different force ...

Masticatory Force and Function in Patients with Hemispheric Brain Infarction and Hemiplegia

Journal of Dental Research, 1999
Recent functional animal studies have reported that the motor control of masticatory muscle function is bilaterally guided by both hemispheres, which may fundamentally differ from the cortical control of limb muscle function. In this study, we investigated whether unilateral cortical brain infarction induces different impairments in masticatory and ...

Relationship between myoelectric activity in masticatory muscles and bite force

European Journal of Oral Sciences, 1985
Abstract –Myoelectric activity in the anterior and posterior temporalis and in the masseter muscle was assessed in five subjects biting unilaterally on a bite fork at 50, 100 and 200 N for 60 s. The bite fork was placed between the right first premolars and the first molars. The ipsilateral muscle activity was recorded first, and the contralateral side

The validity of a method used for measuring masticatory forces

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1960
Abstract An investigation into the validity of a proposed method for measuring the masticatory forces transmitted through a denture base has been presented. Laboratory equipment was built to represent a denture in the mouth. Known loads were applied, and measurement of the load was attempted.

Evaluation of oral manifestations and masticatory force in patients with polymyositis and dermatomyositis

Journal of Oral Pathology & Medicine, 2005
Background:  The polymyositis (PM) and dermatomyositis (DM) complex encompasses a heterogeneous group of acquired autoimmune skeletal muscle diseases called idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM). Despite their histological and immunopathological differences, the end result of the affected muscles in all of these entities is the triad of chronic ...

Weakness in Mouse Masticatory Muscles by Repetitive Contractions with Forced Lengthening

Journal of Dental Research, 1995
The etiology of myofascial tenderness and pain of masticatory muscles in humans is difficult to understand. Parafunctional oral habits such as tooth grinding or vigorous chewing are thought to be factors. The objective of this study was to determine if masticatory muscles are susceptible to weakness and injury induced by repetitive, dynamic, forced ...

A case of masticatory disturbance incidental to trigeminal schwannoma: changes in occlusal force and masticatory sensation before and after radiosurgery

The British Journal of Radiology, 2008
We report here a case of masticatory disturbance evoked by trigeminal schwannoma, in which we have evaluated the changes in occlusal force and masticatory sensation before and after treatment for the tumour. The patient was a 43-year-old woman and her chief complaint was a loss of masticatory sensation on her left side.
