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.

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.

Familial hypertrophy of masticatory muscles
Journal of Neurology, 1987Three familial cases of idiopathic hypertrophy of the masticatory muscles are reported. The muscular enlargement was noted in late childhood or early adult life, was bilateral, insidious, painless and non-progressive. Electrophysiological and laboratory findings were normal in one case.

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 ...

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%.

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.

A review of masticatory muscle function
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1987Current reports of the actions of the major muscles of mastication are reviewed for clenching tasks in centric occlusion and eccentric jaw positions, mandibular opening, and unilateral chewing. The relationship of the mandible to the maxillae in the intercuspal position and, consequently, the relationship of the condyle to the fossa of the ...

[Masticatory muscles. Part IV. The masticatory muscles do not work homogeneously].
Nederlands tijdschrift voor tandheelkunde, 2002The temporalis and masseter muscles have a complex architectural design with large attachment areas. As a consequence, each of these muscles is capable of producing a large number of mechanical effects. In addition, within each muscle the muscle fibres and sarcomeres undergo different excursions during jaw movements.

Myositis Ossificans Traumatica of the Masticatory Muscles
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2012Myositis ossificans traumatica (MOT) is a disease in which muscular ossification develops following trauma. Almost all cases of MOT are found in skeletal muscle. The authors report in a 39-year-old man MOT involving several muscles in the head and neck, namely, bilateral masseter muscles, the left temporal muscle, the left lateral pterygoid muscle, and
