Disorders of the Masticatory Muscles
Dental Clinics of North America, 2013Muscle disorders involving the masticatory muscles have been considered analogous to skeletal muscle disorders throughout the body. However, emerging research has shed new light on the varied etiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of myofascial pain and masticatory muscle disorders.

Characteristics of Masticatory and Tongue Muscles [PDF]
Journal of Oral Biosciences, 2007 Abstract The masticatory and tongue muscles play essential roles in several significant biological tasks such as mastication, swallowing, respiration, and human speech and they have unique characteristics different and distinct from other muscles. The present paper summarizes the findings regarding the following issues concerning the characteristics ...

Journal of Veterinary Dentistry, 1993
This report examines a case of masticatory muscle myositis in a dog. Inflammatory disorders can affect the muscles of mastication. Two types of inflammatory myopathies have been described. The histopathology and immunochemical features of this case suggest an immune mediated basis for this disorder.

Experimental Masticatory Muscle Pain
Journal of Dental Research, 1987Ten female subjects with no history of temporomandibular disorders performed five exercises designed to induce masticatory muscle pain. Three of the exercises were replications of Christensen's tooth-clenching (1970) and tooth-grinding (1971) studies and Scott and Lundeen's mandibular protrusion (1980) study.

Individuality of masticatory performance and of masticatory muscle temporal parameters
Archives of Oral Biology, 2018Mammalian mastication serves to improve intra-oral food reduction. Insufficient food reduction creates potential swallowing problems, whereas over-reduction may accelerate tooth wear and increase feeding time. Either extreme has consequences. The study's objectives were: (1) to study the relationship between food reduction, number of chews in a ...

A case of atrophy of the masticatory muscles due to a masticatory habit
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2002We present a case of atrophy of the masticatory muscles due to a masticatory habit. The patient has had only left side molars for about 40 years. The atrophy of the masticatory muscles was detected incidentally when a brain radiological examination was performed. The patient had no subjective complaints on mastication.

Masticatory muscle pain (MMP) is the major cause of chronic nondental orofacial pain and is experienced by about 12–14% of the adult population, of which approximately 16% seeks treatment. In the vast majority of patients pain is short-lasting or episodic, and only becomes chronic in about 20%.
