Computational simulation of cranial soft tissue expansion on the cranium during early postnatal growth in humans

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We use computer simulations of soft tissue growth to investigate the role of simple physical deformation in the development of the postnatal human cranium. We found that simulated expansion of the model endocranial volume resulted in cranial shape changes consistent with those seen in a normative early postnatal sample, using Procrustes analyses.

Unilateral fibroadipose degeneration of the masticatory muscles

open access: yesDentomaxillofacial Radiology, 2001
Abstract A unique case of fatty replacement of the masticatory muscles, causing progressive limitation of mouth opening, is presented. Both CT and MRI revealed an almost total substitution of the masticatory muscles with fatty tissue, confirmed by the histopathology at surgery.

The Effect of Clear Aligners on Awareness of Tooth Clenching

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Clear aligners do not influence perceived or EMG‐assessed clenching, while somatization emerges as a key mediator in the relationship between clenching and aligner wear. ABSTRACT Introduction Clear aligners (CAs) are an increasingly popular treatment option in modern dentistry, yet surprisingly little is known about their potential unwanted side ...

Is Insomnia Linked to Sleep Bruxism in Adults? A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the association between insomnia and sleep bruxism in adults. The findings showed no consistent evidence of a significant relationship between the two conditions. Further high‐quality studies are needed to clarify this potential association.

Prevalence assessment of bruxism and clenching by considering oral- temporomandibular signs in patients of clinics of Isfahan city

open access: yesمجله دانشکده دندانپزشکی اصفهان, 2008
Introduction: As bruxism and clenching are important parafunctional habits that cause disorders in masticatory muscles and temporomandibular joint (TMJ), and many patients are unaware of these parafunctions, this study was done to evaluate prevalence of ...

Self‐Management Therapies for Temporomandibular Disorders—Evidence From Systematic Reviews

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This umbrella review synthesized existing evidence on self‐management therapy for temporomandibular disorder. ABSTRACT Objectives Chronic pain in the orofacial region affects 10%–15% of the general population. It is most often related to temporomandibular disorders (TMD): pain in the masticatory muscles and the temporomandibular joints.

MRI findings of radiation-induced changes of masticatory muscles: a systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery, 2013
BackgroundRadiotherapy to the head and neck regions can result in serious consequences to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and chewing muscles. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrates soft-tissue alterations after radiotherapy, such as morphology ...

Influence of Sleep and Wakefulness States and Physical Activity on Chronic Pain in Temporomandibular Disorders

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
The present study suggested that jaw pain decreased when sleep satisfaction of the previous night was high, more physical activity on the previous day was associated with less jaw pain, and the jaw pain on the day of the study was more intense when the jaw pain on the previous day was severe.
