Masticatory muscle influence on craniofacial growth

Acta Odontologica Scandinavica, 1995
The influence of the masticatory muscle function on craniofacial growth has been recorded in a series of animal experimental and clinical studies. The common characteristic of these investigations is that the elevator muscles of the mandible influence the transversal and the vertical dimensions of the face.

[Masticatory muscles. Part II. Functional properties of the masticatory muscle fibers].

Nederlands tijdschrift voor tandheelkunde, 2002
The masticatory muscles in human beings and in other mammals show a number of specific adaptations. Their muscle fibres contain at least four different isoforms of myosin heavy chain (MHC) and many fibres express more than one kind simultaneously. This implicates a continuous range of fibre contraction speeds for these muscles.

[Masticatory muscles. Part VIII. Reflexes in the masticatory system].

Nederlands tijdschrift voor tandheelkunde, 2002
A reflex is an involuntary response on a specific nerve stimulus. Several types of receptors are present in the masticatory system which can be involved in reflex activity. A short mechanical tap on an incisor, for example, evokes a specific pattern of several so-called exteroceptive reflexes in the electromyographic (EMG) activity of jaw-closing ...

Nederlands tijdschrift voor tandheelkunde, 2002
Studies focussed on the interactions between masticatory function and the variation in craniofacial height have received an important impulse by the availability of non-invasive imaging techniques like CT and MRI. These techniques allow for in vivo determination of the cross-sectional area and spatial orientation of the human jaw muscles. In recent MRI

Nederlands tijdschrift voor tandheelkunde, 2002
The movement paths of the kinematic center of the temporomandibular joint were recorded by means of a jaw movement recording system (OKAS-3D) under 3 conditions: 1. free open and close movements; 2. free opening and loaded closing movements (subjects closed against a small, manually applied, downward directed force on the chin); and 3.
