Morphology and Physiology of Masticatory Muscle Motor Units [PDF]
Motor unit territories in masticatory muscles appear to be smaller than territories in limb muscles, and this would suggest a more localized organization of motor control in masticatory muscles. Motor unit cross-sectional areas show a wide range of values, which explains the large variability of motor unit force output.

Sensory innervation of masseter, temporal and lateral pterygoid muscles in common marmosets
Myogenous temporomandibular disorders is associated with an increased responsiveness of nerves innervating the masseter (MM), temporal (TM), and lateral pterygoid muscles (LPM).

Diagnosis of hypertonicity of the masticatory muscles at a dental appointment
Summary. The purpose of the study. Hypertonus of the masticatory muscles is a fairly common pathology that leads to the development of parafunctional masticatory activity.

Background Impaired function of masticatory muscles will lead to trismus. Routine delineation of these muscles during planning may improve dose tracking and facilitate dose reduction resulting in decreased radiation-related trismus.

Introduction: The highest predilection for jaw tumors is located in the mandible. One of the management of tumors in the mandible is resection. The resection will result in a discontinuity in the jaw and disruption of the stomatognathic system, one of ...

Electromyography of the masticatory muscles during biting [PDF]
Electromyography (EMG) has already been investigated to provide insights into the changes of the functional abilities of the masticatory system related to temporomandibular disorders (TMD) or changes of the dental occlusion (Castroflorio et al. 2012; Mappelli et al., 2016).

Pulsatile control of the human masticatory muscles [PDF]
Spectral analysis of jaw acceleration confirmed that the human mandible ‘trembles’ at a peak frequency around 6 Hz when held in its rest position and at other stationary jaw openings. The 6 Hz tremor increased during very slow movements of the mandible, but other lower‐frequency peaks became prominent during more rapid jaw movements.

Masticatory muscles in occlusion
In clinical practice, the masticatory muscles problems are often encountered occlusion. Masticatory muscles, as a component of the masticatory system, play an important role in occlusion.
