1. Evaluation of the Lateral Pterygoid Muscle by Magnetic Resonance Imaging / Avaliação do músculo pterigóideo lateral por meio de ressonância magnética
The Lateral Pterygoid Muscle (LPM) plays an important role in Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD), due to the close relation of this muscle with the Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ). However, evidence of pathological changes of the masticatory muscles still seems to be lacking in the TMD research. This study investigated the LPM by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI

2. Characterization of the variety on cross sectional area, capillary density and neonatal myosin expression in the masseter and temporalis muscle / Caracterização da variação do calibre das fibras musculares, densidade capilar e expressão de miosina neonatal nos músculos masseter e temporal
Temporomandibular disfunction (TMD) is a colletive term that refers to different clinical problems of the temporomandibular joint and the jaw muscles. These disfunctions are characterizied meanly by pain, joint sounds and irregular or limited mandibular function. The jaw muscles can be involved in the TMD of muscle etiology, and by definition they are the on

3. Electromyographic evaluation of chewing muscles, jaw movement and condyles position in edentules subjects with temporomandibular dysfunction before and after using complete dentures with NÓBILOS sliding plates / Avaliação eletromiográfica dos músculos da mastigação, da movimentação mandibular e do posicionamento condilar de pacientes desdentados totais com disfunção temporomandibular, antes e após a instalação de próteses totais com pistas deslizantes de Nóbilo
The purpose of this work was to study the measurements of jaw movements, the condyles position into the mandibular fossas, signs and symptoms of temporomandibular dysfunction and electromyographic activity in edentulous subjects, before and after using complete dentures with Nóbilos sliding plates. Nine subjects were selected with upper and lower complete d

4. Study of the relation between the morfofunctions characteristic of têmporomandibular joints discs and the lateral pterygoid muscles areas by magnetic resonance of sintomatic patients. / "Estudo da relação entre as características morfofuncionais dos discos das articulações têmporomandibulares e das áreas dos músculos pterigóideos laterais por ressonância magnética de pacientes sintomáticos"
The present research intend to identify the relationship between articulate discs positions and the measuraments of areas obteined from superior and inferior bands of the lateral pterygoid muscle by images from magnetic ressonance in sagital plane verified in group of 74 patients with 51 woman and 23 man between 19 and 78 years old, with manifestations about

5. Fatores associados a presença de sinais e sintomas de disfunção temporomandibular em adolescentes
Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that signs and symptoms of temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) are common in adults, evidencing also its presence in children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to verify the prevalence of clinical signs and subjective symptoms of TMD in 217 adolescents aged from 12 to 18 years old from public schools in the ci

6. The morphology and innervation of the lateral pterygoid muscle of the dog.
The number of heads possessed by the lateral pterygoid muscle was investigated in the dog. Only a single head was observed which it is suggested may correspond to the lower head in other mammals. It inserted both onto the condyle and into the articular disc. The nerve which innervated this muscle arose directly from the mandibular nerve, separate from the me

8. Increase in fibre numbers of the rat pterygoid muscles during postnatal growth.
The total numbers of fibres in transverse histological sections of the pterygoid muscles of Lister rats of various ages were counted on enlarged photomicrographic prints. The number in the medial pterygoid of the male doubled between birth and six weeks. This was followed by a decrease of rather more than 10 percent in the numbers between six weeks and the a

9. Number and distribution of muscle spindles in the masticatory muscles of the rat.
The frequency and distribution of muscle spindles in the muscles of mastication of the rat have been studied. The average number of spindles found was 110 in the masseter, 75 in the temporalis and 25 in the medial pterygoid muscle, the spindles being predominantly in the medial parts of these muscles. No muscle spindles were found in the lateral pterygoid or

10. Neglected conditions producing preauricular and referred pain.
Various theories regarding temporomandibular joint symptoms are reviewed. Two hundred and forty six patients suffering from head, neck, or facial pain, or masticatory dysfunction were studied. In 108 of these patients, the diagnosis of temporomandibular joint synovitis, lateral pterygoid muscle dysfunction, or tenomyositis of the masseter muscle was made. Ex

11. Sphenotemporalis: a new muscle in man.
A previously unreported human muscle was found in two cadaver specimens. The muscle is situated in the infratemporal fossa and lies superior and deep to the main part of the upper head of the lateral pterygoid muscle. The muscle is attached to the skull on each side of the sphenotemporal suture. Its separated nerve supply arises directly from the trigeminal
