Functional evolution of the feeding system in rodents [PDF]

, 2012
The masticatory musculature of rodents has evolved to enable both gnawing at the incisors and chewing at the molars. In particular, the masseter muscle is highly specialised, having extended anteriorly to originate from the rostrum.

Coordinated features in jaw and neck muscle activities induced by chewing of soft and hard gum in healthy subjects

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, 2021
Backgrounds Jaw and neck muscles may be activated by chewing load using a hard food. However, it remains unclear how effects the gum hardness to the coordinated features in jaw and neck muscle activities during chewing performance.

Primate modularity and evolution: first anatomical network analysis of primate head and neck musculoskeletal system [PDF]

, 2018
Network theory is increasingly being used to study morphological modularity and integration. Anatomical network analysis (AnNA) is a framework for quantitatively characterizing the topological organization of anatomical structures and providing an ...

Muscle-Bone Crosstalk in the Masticatory System: From Biomechanical to Molecular Interactions

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
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

Mandibular Bone Loss after Masticatory Muscles Intervention with Botulinum Toxin: An Approach from Basic Research to Clinical Findings

Toxins, 2019
The injection of botulinum toxin type A (BoNT/A) in the masticatory muscles, to cause its temporary paralysis, is a widely used intervention for clinical disorders such as oromandibular dystonia, sleep bruxism, and aesthetics (i.e., masseteric ...

Morphological evolution of the mammalian jaw adductor complex [PDF]

, 2016
The evolution of the mammalian jaw during the transition from non-mammalian synapsids to crown mammals is a key event in vertebrate history and characterised by the gradual reduction of its individual bones into a single element and the concomitant ...
