The assesment of trigger points (TrPs) apperiance in masticatory muscles and cervical spine in patients with stomatognathic system (SS) disorders- preliminary reports [PDF]
Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2019 Introduction: Increased tension around masticatory muscles can cause pain disorders in facial part of the skull, temporomandibular joint, supra- and infrahyoid area and cervical spine. Unphisiological muscle work bring up Trigger Points (TrPs).

Preservation of masseter muscle until the end stage in the SOD1G93A mouse model for ALS [PDF]
Scientific ReportsAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) progressively impairs motor neurons, leading to muscle weakness and loss of voluntary muscle control. This study compared the effects of SOD1 mutation on masticatory and limb muscles from disease onset to death in ALS ...

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.

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

Muscle-Bone Crosstalk in the Masticatory System: From Biomechanical to Molecular Interactions [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 The masticatory system is a complex and highly organized group of structures, including craniofacial bones (maxillae and mandible), muscles, teeth, joints, and neurovascular elements. While the musculoskeletal structures of the head and neck are known to

Pulsatile control of the human masticatory muscles [PDF]
The Journal of Physiology, 2003 Spectral analysis of jaw acceleration confirmed that the human mandible ‘trembles’ at a peak frequency around 6 Hz when held in its rest position and at other stationary jaw openings. The 6 Hz tremor increased during very slow movements of the mandible, but other lower‐frequency peaks became prominent during more rapid jaw movements.

Masticatory muscles and the skull: A comparative perspective [PDF]
Archives of Oral Biology, 2006 Masticatory muscles are anatomically and functionally complex in all mammals, but relative sizes, orientation of action lines, and fascial subdivisions vary greatly among different species in association with their particular patterns of occlusion and jaw movement. The most common contraction pattern for moving the jaw laterally involves a force couple
