Effects of experimental insoles on body posture, mandibular kinematics and masticatory muscles activity. A pilot study in healthy volunteers [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: It has been hypothesized that different plantar sensory inputs could influence the whole body posture and dental occlusion but there is a lack of evidence on this possible association. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effects of experimental

Pseudomalignant myositis ossificans involving multiple masticatory muscles: Imaging evaluation

Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2014
Myositis ossificans is a rare cause of trismus. We present a case of pseudomalignant myositis ossificans involving medial pterygoid, lateral pterygoid, and temporalis muscles. Patient presented with gross limitation in mouth opening. There was no history

Equine botulism

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Botulism is a severe and often fatal disease in equine patients worldwide. Clostridium botulinum is a ubiquitous soil organism which produces a potent neurotoxin resulting in neuromuscular blockade and flaccid paralysis in affected animals. Definitive diagnosis is often impractical or impossible, leading to diagnosis and treatment based on ...

The effect of the type of jaw growth caused by the change of baby teeth on the bioelectric activity of the chewing muscles

Эндодонтия Today
INTRODUCTION. The bioelectric activity of the masticatory muscles is influenced by many factors due to the parameters of the craniofacial complex – morphometric parameters of the head. However, there is no data in the literature on the effect of the type

Caveolin-1, caveolin-3 and VEGF expression in the masticatory muscles of mdx mice

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2011
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and murine X-linked muscular dystrophy (mdx), its murine model, are characterized by muscle damage and muscle weakness associated with inflammation and new vessel formation. Caveolins, dystrophin-associated proteins, are

Parkinson's Disease and Salivary Issues: A Survey

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Salivary dysfunction, including xerostomia and drooling, is common in Parkinson's disease and further impairs oral health and quality of life, which are already compromised in this population. Their effective management demands deeper insight into the complexity of salivary dysfunction.
