Objective: to investigate the correlation between the tongue pressure and the electrical
activity of the suprahyoid muscles. Methods: a across-sectional, observational and analytical …

Purpose: To analyze the electric activity of suprahyoid muscles in eight different isometric
exercises and to suggest the most appropriate exercise for data normalization. Methods …

Background A rise in tongue pressure coincides with an increase in the suprahyoid muscle
activity. Objectives The aim was to investigate the effects of holding a weighted plastic bottle …

Purpose: to investigate the influence of the habitual head posture, jaw and hyoid bone
position on the supra and infrahyoid muscles activity of the muscles during swallowing of …

Purpose: to verify the effects of tongue pressure exercises against the incisive papilla, used
both alone and in combination with functional swallowing training, on the electrical activity of …

Objective: To characterize the electrical activity of the muscles: temporal (anterior portion),
masseter and suprahyoid muscles during swallowing and to analyze the difference between …

The suprahyoid muscles play an important role in protecting the airway by elevating both the
hyoid bone and larynx superior-anteriorly during swallowing. However, providing systematic …

Muscle electrical activity analysis can aid in the identification of oral motor dysfunctions,
such as those resulting from an altered lingual frenulum, which consequently impairs …

Purpose: To compare the impact of isokinetic exercise (tongue suction on the palate) in the
cervical region of Class I and Class II/2nd Division participants, considering the average and …

Objective: The effect of a resistive jaw-opening exercise using an elastic band on
suprahyoid muscle activity and tongue strength was examined in healthy volunteers …
