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.

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. Hence, teeth clenching and masticatory muscle activity can be important in competitive sports activities.

Depression and Resting Masticatory Muscle Activity [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2020
Background: The aim of this study was to determine the influence of moderate depression determined based on Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMDs) Axis II on the bioelectrical resting activity of temporal muscles and masseter muscles. Methods: The research participants were 68 healthy adult women. Of these, 46 people h (

EMG-CHARACTERISTICS OF MASTICATORY MUSCLES IN SUBJECTS WITH BRUXISM

Український стоматологічний альманах, 2022
Today, bruxism is a fairly common phenomenon. Bruxism is often defined as the parafunctional activity of the masticatory and facial muscles. Parafunction is called increased inappropriate activity, tension or even spasm of the masticatory and facial ...
