To compare the morphology of the masseter muscle in patients with mandibular prognathism with that of normal subjects.Three-dimensional X-ray computed tomography (CT) was performed on 69 patients with mandibular prognathism and compared with 91 normal subjects. The angle of the muscle direction in...

The changes in the volume and morphology of the masseter muscle after reduction gonioplasty were assessed quantitatively. The 3DCT data were analyzed using Mimics 10.01 software. RESULTS: All patients were satisfied with the outcome. No complications happened. There were significant differences between ...
Tissue samples from the masseter muscle were taken presurgically and 7 months later. Samples from controls came from the extraction of third molars. The expression of Notch 1 to 4 and the satellite cell markers CD34, Pax7, and MyoD1 were investigated. PCR was used for relative quantification ...
Although substantial work has been done to evaluate the various trigeminal reflexes, limited research has investigated the reflexes from the muscle spindles in different facial proportions. This is primarily due to the inherent complexity of the neurophysiology compounded by noise within the experimental ...
