Comparative analysis of functional condition of masseters with patients having the dysfunction of temporomandibukar joints with sagittal and transversal mandible shifts in the traditional method of treatment and in the application of treatment and in the application of transcranial electrical stimulation
Abstract
The comparative analysis of recording the amplitude of bioelectric potentials of masseters with 41 patients having dysfunction of temporomandibular joints (TMJ) with sagittal and transversal mandible shifts in the traditional method of treatment and in the application of transcranial electric stimulation (TES-therapy) has been carried out. The obtained results of electric myography (EMG) of masseters made it possible to establish that TES-therapy has a more effective impact on the functional condition of the muscular complex of the patients having the dysfunction TMJ with sagittal and transversal shifts of mandible by reducing bioelectric activity of masseters in the condition of relative rest and by increasing the amplitude of biological potentials during chewing and in the maximum compression of jaws.
