  1. 1. Masticatory retraining effect on masseter muscle, facial morphology and alveolar bone structure in the adult rat

    Författare :Anna Ödman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adult; rat; craniofacial morphology; alveolar trabecular bone; MYH; mandible; masticatory function;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this series of investigations was to study the effect of masticatory muscle retraining in adult rats with an earlier reduced masticatory muscle function on the craniofacial morphology, on the internal alveolar bone structure and on the deep masseter muscle. Material and Methods: Sixty young male rats received soft diet for a prolonged period, so that the animals developed weak masticatory muscles. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Factors affecting neurosensory disturbances after mandibular osteotomies. Clinical and experimental studies

    Sammanfattning : Absorbed doses to radiosensitive organs in the head and neck from pre-implant conventional hypocycloidal, conventional spiral and computed tomography (CT) were measured with thermoluminescent dosimeters in an anthropomorphic phantom head. From conventional tomography organ doses, except to the major salivary glands, were below 0.2 mGy. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Neck function in rhythmic jaw activities

    Författare :Birgitta Häggman-Henrikson; Antoon DeLaat; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :chewing; head; human; jaw; mandible; motor control; movement; neck; temporomandibular disorders; whiplash injury; odontologi; Odontology;

    Sammanfattning : Previous studies in animals and humans show anatomic and physiological connections between the trigeminal and cervical regions. This investigation tested the hypothesis of a functional integration between the human jaw and neck motor systems in rhythmic jaw activities. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Fixed mandibular retainers : a controlled 12-year follow-up

    Författare :Ulrike Schütz-Fransson; Malmö universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Irregularity Index; Long-term stability; Relapse; Orthodontic retainers; Adolescent; Child; Device Removal; Female; Follow-Up Studies; Humans; Incisor; Male; Malocclusion; Mandible; Orthodontic Retainers; Recurrence; Risk Factors; Treatment Outcome;

    Sammanfattning : Fixed retainer after orthodontic treatment is an increasing retention appliance. For the mandibular incisors there are two different fixed retainers that are commonly used, either a canine-to-canine retainer bonded only to the canines or a twistflex retainer bonded to each of the mandibular incisors and canines.
