Longitudinal changes in electromyographic activity of masseter and anterior temporalis muscles before and after alloplastic total joint replacement in patients with temporomandibular ankylosis: a prospective study
2022, British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial SurgeryCitation Excerpt :At T1, as the muscles have been detached, it is not surprising that muscle activity is reduced (due to the detachment of the muscle). In primates, masticatory muscle detachment and temporalis muscle transposition result in a transient reduction in muscle activity.14 Detached jaw muscle without subsequent reattachment has been found to shorten spontaneously, and frequently reattaches at a shorter length.15
How Does a Unilateral Temporomandibular Joint Replacement Affect Bilateral Masseter and Temporalis Muscle Activity?—A Prospective Study
2021, Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Several authors postulate that after mandibular angle osteotomy, a detached MM undergoes significant atrophy with a decrease of its volume.9-11 No signs of atrophy were found in a masticatory muscle dissection without ostectomy.10,12,13 In any case, the reaction of the synergistic musculature to the loss of a muscle function seems to result in immediate compensation.14

2010, Seminars in OrthodonticsBiomineralization and adaptive plasticity of the temporomandibular joint in myostatin knockout mice
2006, Archives of Oral BiologyCitation Excerpt :This suggests that external proportions may not be the most appropriate level at which to detect and evaluate adaptive plasticity of masticatory elements. The size of a bony muscle attachment site is affected by the strength of the muscle,38–40 the direction of the muscle force relative to the surface of the bone,41–43 and frequency of muscle use.44 Myostatin knockout mice produce relatively greater bite forces25 and possess larger masseter (Table 1) and temporalis25 muscles.
