Quantification of tenderness of masticatory muscle.
As more dentists diagnose and treat the patient with temporomandibular disorders, muscle palpation has been recognized as a valuable diagnostic method. But this method was depended on sensibility and experience of the operator. The purpose of this study was to establish the quantification of muscle palpation by new pressure pain threshold apparatus ...

Modeling and Simulation of Masticatory Muscles
AbstractMedical simulators play an important role in helping the development of prototype prostheses, pre-surgical planning and in a better understanding of the mechanical phenomena involved in muscular activity. This article focuses in modeling and simulating the activity of the jaw muscular system. The model involves the use of three-dimensional bone

Muscle-Bone Crosstalk in the Masticatory System: From Biomechanical to Molecular Interactions
The masticatory system is a complex and highly organized group of structures, including craniofacial bones (maxillae and mandible), muscles, teeth, joints, and neurovascular elements. While the musculoskeletal structures of the head and neck are known to
