Objectives: To evaluate the elevator and depressor muscle activity with and without
complete denture prosthesis. Materials and methods: For the purpose of the study 12 …

Jaw actions adapt to the changing properties of food that occur during a masticatory
sequence. In the present study, we investigated how the time‐varying activation profile of the …

The aim of this study was to compare the electromyographic (EMG) activity of jaw‐closing
muscles of individuals with normal and reduced periodontal bone support. Fourteen adult …

The masticatory process identifies the level of the individual's masticatory ability and
provides important information for an adequate diagnosis of the masticatory function. The …

Background Maximum bite force (MBF) is a common and useful index of masticatory
function; it correlates with physical strength in elderly people. Palpation of stiffness in the …

Objectives This study aimed to subjectively and objectively assess masticatory function and
identify related factors in older adults. Methods From July 2017 to September 2018, we …

The effects of muscle pain and fatigue on the control of jaw elevator muscles are not well
known. Furthermore, the myoelectric manifestations of fatigue and recovery from fatigue in …

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 …

Objective: To evaluate the effects of age and dental status on chewing performance in
humans. Design: Electromyography recordings (EMG) were made during chewing of six …
