1. The effect of a Lucia jig for 30 minutes on neuromuscular re-programming, in normal subjects
The Lucia jig is a technique that promotes neuromuscular reprogramming of the masticatory system and allows the stabilization of the mandible without the interference of dental contacts, maintaining the mandible position in harmonic condition with the musculature in normal subjects or in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD). This study aimed to

2. Electromyographic analysis of the masticatory muscles in patients with temporomandibular disorder during chewing / Analise da atividade eletromiografica de musculos mastigatorios em portadores de disfunção temporomandibular durante a mastigação
Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are characterized by changes in masticatory musculature, temporomandibular joints and associated structures. The aim of this study was to evaluate masticatory function in TMD patients by means of surface electromyographic (EMG) exam, relating the TMD signs and symptoms to the lateral preference masticatory. Subjects were sel

3. Avaliação global da postura ortostática de indivíduos portadores de distúrbios internos da articulação temporomandibular : aplicabilidade de métodos clínicos, fotográficos e radiográficos / Orthostatic posture global evaluation of subjects with temporomandibular joint internal derangements: applicability of clinical, photographic, and radiographic methods
The temporomandibular joint dysfunctions (TMD) embrace a variety of functional disturbances that may affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), masticatory musculature, or both simultaneously. TMJ internal derangements are a specific case of TMD, clinically presented by articular sounds associated to jerk or limited mandibular movements, and often pain. Its e

4. The Polynesian head: growth and form.
We consider the cranial base to be the primordial determinant of the head form and mandibular shape so common amongst (but not exclusive to) adult Polynesians. The flatness of the cranial base manifests its full influence only when growth of the upper facial skeleton is complete in early adulthood. We argue that during growth and maturation the upper facial
