Stomatognathic System (7)


Articles on Stomatognathic System

  1. The masticator space. Value of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in localisation and characterisation of lesions.

    Acta Otorhinolaryngol Ital 30(2):94-9 (2010) PMID 20559479

    Aim of the study was to assess the different roles of magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography in the evaluation of anatomical origin and pathological nature of lesions involving the masticator space. Overall 41 cases (31 computed tomography and 14 magnetic resonance imaging) of lesions in...
  2. Masticatory biomechanics and masseter fiber-type plasticity.

    J Musculoskelet Neuronal Interact 10(1):46-55 (2010) PMID 20190379

    We investigated fiber-type abundance and cross-sectional area in the masseter muscle of growing rabbits subjected to diet-induced variation in masticatory stresses. Three loading cohorts were obtained as weanlings and raised until adult on different diets. Immediately following euthanasia, left-side...
  3. [The vocation of orthodontics].

    Orthod Fr 80(4):387-90 (2009) PMID 19954736

    For Angle, the goal of orthodontic treatment was to correct malocclusions. Then, the raison d'être seemed to be to restore normality as described through an increasing number of measurements and in seeking an average value. But 95.5% of variations were in fact normal and didn't need to be brought...
  4. The relationship between posture and equilibrium and the auriculotemporal nerve in patients with disturbed gait and balance.

    Cranio 27(4):248-60 (2009) PMID 19891259

    Balance is defined as a state of equilibrium or parity characterized by cancellation of all forces by equal opposing factors. This is the act of maintaining an upright posture (static balance) or in locomotion (dynamic balance or gait). This system depends on vestibular function, vision, and proprioc...
  5. Hypoglossal nucleus projections to the rat masseter muscle

    Brain Res (2009) PMID 19523459

    We investigated in the rat whether hypoglossal innervation extended to facial muscles other than the extrinsic musculature of the mystacial pad. Results showed that hypoglossal neurons also innervate the masseter muscle. Dil injected into the XII nucleus showed hypoglossal axons in the ipsilateral m...
  6. Light and scanning electron microscopic study on the tongue and lingual papillae of the common hippopotamus, Hippopotamus amphibius amphibiu...

    Anat Rec (Hoboken) 292(7):921-34 (2009) PMID 19548302

  7. Differences in masticatory function of subjects with different closing path.

    medline 53(3):142-5 1 Jul 2009 PMID 19464981

    The integral values of muscular activities and the amount of glucose extraction were significantly greater in Group I. The gape and masticatory width were not significantly different between the groups. The values of the indicators representing the stability of path were smaller in Group I than in G...
  8. A comparison of cephalometric analysis using radiographs and craniofacial computed tomography in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndr...

    Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol 266(4):535-42 (2009) PMID 18956206

    We found craniofacial CT scan measurements to be easier and more accurate especially when applying to soft tissues. We believe that this method may also be useful for patient classification to surgical procedures....
  9. Morphometric evaluation of the temporomandibular joint and the masticatory spaces: the role of high-definition MRI.

    Minerva Stomatologica 58(4):127-43 (2009) PMID 19369919

    In preoperative maxillofacial surgery assessment, MRI is a useful tool to reduce operating time, avert surgical complications and improve patient outcome....
  10. Relation between electrical stimulus intensity, masseteric exteroceptive reflex and sensory perception.

    capcas 53(2):89-94 1 Apr 2009 PMID 19318079

    All parameters for changes in ES following increasing incremental stimulus intensity could be analyzed. The construction of S-R curves in relation to sensory perception and ES parameters characterized the difference between ES1 and ES2....
