Abstract

Disorder in the work of muscles of the maxillofacial region affects the development of dental anomalies. Control of myodynamic equilibrium and coordinated chewing muscle activity is necessary during the period of active growth and development of the dental skeleton. Surface electromyography and myotonometry were carried out for 38 children before the beginning of orthodontic correction at the age of 6 to 12 years, having abnormalities of dental system. The study showed a significant number of correlations between the functional activity of the chewing muscle. Integrative connections between recorded values are found, which determines the possibility of complex application of surface electromyography and myotonometry.

Keywords

electromyography, myotonometry, myodynamic balance, functional state of chewing muscle.
