Masticatory Muscles Activity in Sport Climbers. [PDF]

Int J Environ Res Public Health, 2020
Masticatory muscle activity during teeth clenching is associated with changes in many physiological parameters throughout the body. Clenching can improve muscle activity, force production, rate of force development, and joint fixation.

Ultrasound measurements of superficial and deep masticatory muscles in various postures: reliability and influencers. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2020
Masticatory muscle thickness provides objective measurements of the oral motor function, which may change in patients with oral myofascial pain. In this study, we aimed to establish a reliable ultrasound (US) protocol for imaging the superficial and deep

Three-dimensional architecture characteristics and diffusion properties of masticatory muscles assessed with diffusion tensor imaging and diffusion spectrum imaging: a pilot study of differences, reproducibility and sensitivity to microenvironment changes [PDF]

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Diffusion spectral imaging (DSI) could overcome the inherent limitation of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), but its outcomes in masticatory muscle fiber-tracking have not been well-established. Therefore, the objective of this prospective study

Evaluation of Electromyographic Activity of Masticatory Muscles in Adults with Posterior Crossbite [PDF]

International Journal of Dentistry, 2022
Introduction. There is evidence that patients with posterior crossbite (PXB) have neuromuscular changes in the masticatory muscles. However, up to the present time, the relationship among these changes on the electromyographic activity of the masticatory

Standardised indexes reduce the variability of masticatory muscles electromyographic values [PDF]

European Journal of Translational Myology
In dentistry, surface electromyography (sEMG) is currently used in both clinical and research fields to study the electrical activity of the masticatory muscles, such as the anterior Temporals and Masseters, which are easily accessible.

Myositis ossificans traumatica of the masticatory muscles: etiology, diagnosis and treatment

Head & Face Medicine, 2018
Background Myositis ossificans describes a heterotopic bone formation within a muscle. Thereby myositis ossificans is classified in two different groups: myositis ossificans progressiva (MOP) which describes a genetic autosomal dominant rare disease and ...
