The influence of jaw position and antagonistic tooth relations on the appearance of a short-latency excitatory reflex in the human masseter muscles following mechanical tooth stimulation Carels C, Steenberghe D van (1986) The influence of jaw position and antagonistic tooth relations on the appearance...
described to predict the position of the facial nerve: Conn's are; a plane extending posteriorly from the outer surface of the mandibular ramus; and soft-tissue structures, including the posterior belly of the digastric muscle, the retromandibular vein and the lateral border of the masseter ...
A similar pattern of results was observed for the suprahyoid muscle group (P < .01). There were no significant differences in masseter muscle activity as a function of tongue position (Ps > .20). These findings suggest caution in labeling the "rest" position of the tongue and indicate ...
clench, their myoelectric activities of the masseter, anterior and posterior temporal, and digastric muscles on the left and right sides were simultaneously sampled and processed by computer, and the mean power frequency (MPF) and the mean amplitude (MA) of the myoelectric signal were calculated. ...

A computer model was used to demonstrate that the location of the CR determines the amount of stretch of the large masseter and medial pterygoid muscles. Using parameters for passive elastic behaviour of muscle, obtained by postmortem measurements, it can be shown that the normal CR position ...
