An electromyographic analysis of the temporalis function of normal occlusion

Orthodontic-Surgical Treatment: Electromyographic and Electrognatographic Evaluation with Three Electromyographic Instruments

“…[27][28][29][30][31][32][33] Ahlgren et al (1973,1985) proved a positively correlation between the mandibular plane angle (SNGoMe) and the temporal muscle activity (TMA). 34,35 Moller and Ingervall obtained opposite results. 36,37 Ueda et al (1998) proved that vertical craniofacial morphology is positively correlated with temporal muscle activity (TMA) and negative correlated with masseter muscle activity (MMA).…”

Applying neuromuscular techniques in the orthodontic setting

“…[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Surface electromyography is also a well-established procedure, and many dentists use it routinely. [16][17][18][19] On the other hand, the use of TENS occurs relatively rarely in the dental clinic. Alongside financial barriers to the acquisition and use of the technology, the infrequent use of TENS may be due to a lack of information within dental communities about the importance of muscle relaxation, and the consequential changes in the spatial relationship between the cranium and the mandible.…”

Farklı Vertikal Yüz Yapısına Sahip Bireylerde Çiğneme Kas Aktivitesi: Elektromiyografik Çalışma

“…EMG kay›tlar›n› bireyin yafl›, cinsiyeti, ya¤ dokusu miktar›, stres ve a¤r› gibi faktörler de etkilemektedir (36)(37)(38). Kas aktivitesi, ayn› kas içerisinde lokalizasyona, yüzeyel-derin olufluna göre bile farkl› olabilmektedir (38)(39)(40).…”

“…Kas aktivitesi, ayn› kas içerisinde lokalizasyona, yüzeyel-derin olufluna göre bile farkl› olabilmektedir (38)(39)(40). De¤iflik görüfllere ra¤men (21,37), EMG 'nin kas aktivitesinin incelenmesinde geçerli bir yöntem oldu¤u kabul edilmektedir (36,38,41,42).…”

“…EMG recordings can be affected from the patients age, gender, amount of fatty tissues, stress and pain (36)(37)(38). Muscular activity can be different according to its localisation, superficial or deep nature, within the same muscle (38)(39)(40).…”
