“…These variables have been analyzed with different devices to try to overcome certain problems that arise when recording mandibular movement, head movement, faithful tracking of mandibular movement and modifying the natural movement during chewing. Border movements have been analyzed using EMA in several studies [19,38], and a new variable has been introduced by analyzing border movements eccentrically and concentrically [46], as well as through symmetry analysis [84]. In addition, it has been made possible to analyze masticatory kinematics, differentiation of each cycle and its stage of ascent and descent in the area described [52].…”

“…Chuhuaicura et al [46] in their study on eccentric and concentric border movements, found significant differences in the described area concentrically and eccentrically from the frontal and sagittal polygons, with the area being greater concentrically in both cases. In this study, subjects were asked to perform border movements in the traditional way [41] and then in reverse, with a movement sensor attached to the interincisal line on the lower incisors.…”

“…With the masticatory cycles defined and the previously mentioned tools, each cycle can be analyzed in isolation. Using Matlab routines, Vargas-Arguto et al [52] identified the number of cycles, the masticatory cycle frequency, the speed of the ascent and descent of each cycle, using the Section 5 equations, and the area of each, using the same method as Chuhuaicura et al [46]. They noted that men presented a greater masticatory frequency and mandibular speed than women.…”

Chewing is a complex procedure that involves sensory feedback and motor impulses controlled by the trigeminal system in the brainstem. The analysis of mandibular movement is a first approximation to understanding these mechanisms. Several recording methods have been tested to achieve this. Video, ultrasound, the use of external markers and kinesiographs are examples of recording systems used in research. Electromagnetic articulography is an alternative method to those previously mentioned. It consists of the use of electromagnetic fields and receiver coils. The receiver coils are placed on the points of interest and the 3D coordinates of movement are saved in binary files. In the Oral Physiology Laboratory of the Dental Sciences Research Center (Centro de Investigación en Ciencias Odontológicas—CICO), in the Faculty of Dentistry at the Universidad de La Frontera (Temuco, Chile) several research studies have been carried out using the AG501 3D EMA articulograph (Carstens Medizinelektronik, Lenglern, Germany). With this device, they developed a series of protocols to record mandibular movement and obtain new information, such as the 3D Posselt polygon, the area of each polygon, individualized masticatory cycles and speed and acceleration profiles. Other investigations have analyzed these parameters, but separately. The AG501 allows for holistic analysis of all these data without altering natural movement. A limitation of this technology is the interference generated by its metallic elements. The aim of the present work is to show the developed methods used to record mandibular movement in the CICO, using the AG501 and compare them with others used in several research studies.

“…If the link between tooth loss and cognitive impairment is confirmed, it will provide a novel means of targeting the prevention of cognitive impairment. Many clinical studies have shown that chewing exercise can be considered as a preventive method for cognitive impairment (Ono et al, 2010;Tada and Miura, 2017;Chuhuaicura et al, 2019). Corresponding results appeared after the use of implants or dentures to repair the missing teeth, patients' cognitive level can be improved (Ki et al, 2019;Tan et al, 2020).…”

BackgroundThere is a dose-response relationship between tooth loss and cognitive impairment, while tooth loss can be an independent risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD). Tooth loss can also accelerate nerve damage and neurodegeneration. However, the associated mechanisms remain poorly understood.ObjectiveTo conduct a systematic review of animal experiments on cognitive decline caused by the loss of occlusal support performed over the past 10 years and summarize the possible underlying mechanisms.Methods“Tooth Loss,” “Edentulous,” “Tooth Extraction and Memory Loss,” “Cognition Impairment,” and “Dementia” were used as keywords to search PubMed, Embase, SCI, ScienceDirect, and OpenGrey. A total of 1,317 related articles from 2010 to 2021 were retrieved, 26 of which were included in the review after screening according to predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Comprehensiveness was evaluated using ARRIVE guidelines and the risk of bias was assessed using SYCLE'S risk of bias tool.ResultsThe putative mechanisms underlying the cognitive impairment resulting from the loss of occlusal support are as follows: (1) The mechanical pathway, whereby tooth loss leads to masticatory motor system functional disorders. Masticatory organ activity and cerebral blood flow decrease. With reduced afferent stimulation of peripheral receptors (such as in the periodontal membrane) the strength of the connections between neural pathways is decreased, and the corresponding brain regions degenerate; (2) the aggravation pathway, in which tooth loss aggravates existing neurodegenerative changes. Tooth loss can accelerates nerve damage through apoptosis and mitochondrial autophagy, increases amyloid deposition in the brain; and (3) the long-term inflammatory stress pathway, which involves metabolic disorders, microbial-gut-brain axis, the activation of microglia and astrocytes, and inflammatory cascade effect in central nervous system.ConclusionThe loss of occlusal support may lead to cognitive dysfunction through the reduction of chewing-related stimuli, aggravation of nerve damage, and long-term inflammatory stress.

“…With electromagnetic articulography, kinematic analysis of the mandibular movement is possible, rather than static parameters. Thus, the aforementioned parameters can be recorded, and the trajectory described by the mandible from the start to the end point of the movement can also be observed [ 38 , 39 ]. This can open new perspectives on the diagnosis of the state of the TMJ since the trajectory and the form of the path of the mandible when performing the opening movement can be incorporated, both to analyze the maximum opening and the openings performed while chewing.…”

A Novel Technique to Accurately Measure Mouth Opening Using 3D Electromagnetic Articulography

et al. 2022

The mouth opening is an important indication of the functionality of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Mouth opening is usually evaluated by asking the patient to open their mouth as wide as possible and measuring the distance between the edges of the frontal incisors with a ruler or caliper. With the advancement of technology, new techniques have been proposed to record mandibular movement. The aim of this work is to present a novel technique based on 3D electromagnetic articulography and data postprocessing to analyze the mouth opening considering distances, trajectories, and angles. A maxilla-mandible phantom was used to simulate the mouth opening movement and fixed position mouth opening. This was recorded using the AG501 3D EMA (Carstens Medizinelektronik GmbH, Bovenden, Germany). The collected data was processed using Matlab (Mathworks, Natick, MA, USA). Fix and mobile mouth opening of 1, 2, 3 and 4 cm were simulated. It was possible to evaluate the mandibular opening through the vertical distance, the Euclidean distance, the trajectory, and the opening angle. All these values were calculated and the results were consistent with expectations. The trajectory was the highest value obtained while the vertical distance was the lowest. The angle increased as the mouth opening increased. This new technique opens up new possibilities in future research since oral opening can be analyzed using multiple variables without the need to use different devices or depending on the researcher’s experience. This will make it possible to establish which parameter presents significant differences between groups of patients or between patients who have undergone some treatment.
