Histoenzymology and morphometry of the masticatory muscles of tufted capuchin monkey (Cebus apella Linnaeus, 1758)
(2002-12-01)
Samples of the anterior and posterior regions of the masseter and temporal muscles and of the anterior belly of the digastric muscle of 4 adult male tufted capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella) were removed and stained with HE ...
Orthodromic transposition of the temporal muscle for facial paralysis: Made easy and better
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2005-03-01)
The authors present a modified technique of transposition of temporal muscle for reanimation of facial paralysis. Fourteen cases illustrate the simplicity, advantages, and excellent esthetic and functional results of this method.
Effect of occlusal splint thickness on electrical masticatory muscle activity during rest and clenching
(Sociedade Brasileira de Pesquisa Odontológica (SBPqO), 2011-11-01)
The extent of separation between the maxillary and mandibular teeth in the fabrication of interocclusal splints designed to achieve efficiency and muscle relaxation is controversial and undefined in the literature. Based ...
Electromyographic evaluation of masseter and anterior temporalis muscles in resting position and during maximum tooth clenching of edentulous patients before and after new complete dentures.
(2007-12-01)
The aim of this study was to assess the electrical activity of the masseter and anterior temporal muscles in patients with severe bone resorption, with complete dentures worn for over ten years, and five months after having ...
Electromyographic analysis of masseter and anterior temporalis muscle in sleep bruxers after occlusal splint wearing
(2012-04-01)
Bruxism is widely defined as an anxiety response to environmental stress. Occlusal splints are frequently used in sleep bruxism, to protect teeth from damage resulting from the contraction force of mandibular muscles, or ...
Electromyographic study of the temporal, masseter and suprahyoid muscles in the mandibular rest position
(Blackwell Science, 1998-10-01)
The temporal muscles (anterior position), and the masseter and suprahyoid muscles were studied electromyographically in 15 subjects with ages ranging from 18 to 35 years, showing normal occlusion (Class I of angle), complete ...
The influence of temporal food restriction on the performance of isolated cardiac muscle
(Elsevier B.V., 2001-04-01)
In this study we assessed the mechanical function of isolated left ventricular papillary muscles from 60 day-old male Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) subjected to different periods of food restriction (FR). The food-restricted ...
Clinical assessment of the efficacy of low-level laser therapy on muscle pain in women with temporomandibular dysfunction, by surface electromyography
(2010-10-01)
The use of low-level laser (LLL) may be an useful tool to promote reduction of muscular pain caused by TMD. Aim: This study evaluated the immediate efficacy of low-level laser therapy on women reporting pain and diagnosed ...
Mecanismos celulares e moleculares que controlam o desenvolvimento e o crescimento muscular
(Sociedade Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2007-07-01)
O músculo estriado esquelético é formado pela associação de fibras musculares com a matriz extracelular. Esse tecido possui alta plasticidade e o conhecimento das características morfológicas, da miogênese, e da dinâmica ...
