Muscle Spindle Distribution in the Masticatory Muscle of the Tree Shrew

Journal of Dental Research, 1974
Histological study of the masticatory muscles of the tree shrew showed that 140 muscle spindles are concentrated in the restricted areas of the inner lowermost layer of the horizontal and vertical portions of the temporal muscle (48 and 47 spindles, respectively), the profundus portion of the masseter muscle (42 spindles), and the zygomaticomandibular

The effects of muscle fatigue on the silent period of the masticatory muscles

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1988
SummaryThirteen healthy adults performed sustained clenching at 50% maximum clenching level judged electromyographically. Electromyograms were recorded from both anterior temporal and masseter muscles during clenching and the silent period latency and duration were measured.

Intravoxel incoherent motion imaging of masticatory muscles: pilot study for the assessment of perfusion and diffusion during clenching.

AJR. American journal of roentgenology, 2013
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging for assessing perfusion and diffusion of masticatory muscles during clenching.

Variation in Daily Masticatory Muscle Activity in the Rabbit

Journal of Dental Research, 2004
The daily use of masticatory muscles remains largely unclear, since continuous recordings were limited in space and time. This study’s purpose was to use radio-telemetry to examine daily muscle use and its inter- and intra-individual variations. A telemetric device was implanted into the rabbit masseter, and the transmitted signals were digitally ...

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.

Changes in masticatory function after injection of botulinum toxin type A to masticatory muscles.

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2013
This study examined changes in masticatory function after botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injection using objective and subjective tests during 12 weeks. Also, we compared differences in masticatory function between group in which only masseter muscle (M ...

Masticatory Muscle Pain Biomarkers

2017
This chapter focuses on the potential role of biomarkers for masticatory muscle pain, i.e., myalgia. To date, no biomarkers have been identified that can be used clinically for diagnosis or treatment of myalgia of jaw muscles. There is evidence from microdialysis studies that intramuscular levels of glutamate and serotonin are elevated in patients with

Muscle Spindles in the Masticatory Muscles of the Cat and Opossum

1995
The morphology, location and intrafusal fibre type composition of spindles in the jaw-closer muscles of the cat and South American opossum (Monodelphys domestica) were identified histologically and by their myosin isoform composition.
