RESUMEN
La masticación se ha estudiado desde diferentes puntos de vista, utilizando alimentos de prueba naturales y artificiales. La evidencia es escasa cuando se analizan alimentos a base de cereales, que van desde cereales para el desayuno hasta barras de granola. El investigar este tipo de alimentos, se vuelve importante para entender el comportamiento de la masticación frente a alimentos con diferentes composiciones y texturas, y como estas características pueden influir en el proceso masticatorio. Se analizó la masticación desde un punto de vista cinemático, en sujetos jóvenes dentados. El alimento de prueba utilizado fue granola prototipo y maní, este último se ha estudiado en sujetos con rehabilitación protésica y su consumo se recomienda en esta población. Se analizaron las características cinemáticas de la masticación como numero de ciclos, frecuencia masticatoria, velocidad de masticación de ascenso y descenso, y el área de masticación en los tres planos del espacio. Se relacionaron los movimientos masticatorios con los movimientos mandibulares bordeantes que conformaron el polígono de Posselt, este también se analizó en los tres planos espaciales. En todas las variables analizadas la granola presento valores mayores, excepto en el número de ciclos masticatorios, sólo se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas (p= 0,03) al comparar la velocidad (ascenso y descenso) y el área de masticación en el plano horizontal.
Chewing has been studied from different points of view, using natural and artificial foods test. When analyzing cereal-based foods, from breakfast cereals to granola bars, the evidence is scarce. Investigate this type of food is important to understand the behavior of chewing, with foods of different compositions and textures, and how these characteristics can influence the chewing process. Chewing was analyzed from a cinematic point of view, in young subjects complete dental. The test food used was prototype granola and peanuts, last one has been studied in subjects with prosthetic rehabilitation and its consumption is recommended in this population. The kinematic characteristics of chewing were analyzed: number of cycles, chewing frequency, ascent and descent chewing speed, and the chewing area in the three planes of space. The masticatory movements were related to the bordering mandibular movements, that formed the Posselt polygon, which was also analyzed in the three spatial planes. In all the variables analyzed, granola showed higher values, except in the number of chewing cycles, only statistically significant differences (p = 0.03) were found when comparing speed (ascent and descent) and the chewing area in the horizontal plane.

Objective@#To explore the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of synovial chondroma in the temporomandibular joint and to provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.@*Methods @#A case of right temporomandibular joint synovial chondromatosis admitted to the Stomatological Hospital, Southern Medical University was reported, and the related literature was reviewed and analyzed.@*Results @#During the movement of the mandibular opening, noise and obvious pain were found. The imaging features showed that several free calcification shadows of different sizes were seen around the condyle in the right articular fossa. The right temporomandibular joint mass resection and articular disc reduction were performed under general anesthesia, and the postoperative pathological results showed synovial chondromatosis. The patient′s symptoms were relieved 3 months after the surgery, and the imaging examination showed no residual lesions. A review of the literature shows that synovial chondromatosis usually occurs in large joints, such as the knee, hip, elbow, and shoulder joints, and rarely occurs in the temporomandibular joint. It occurs in middle-aged patients, manifesting as pain, swelling, and limited movement. Imaging studies play an important role in diagnosis, but the final diagnosis requires pathological diagnosis. Surgical treatment is effective, and synovial chondromatosis does not easily relapse.@*Conclusion@#The diagnosis of TMJ synovial chondroma should be combined with clinical manifestations, imaging features, and pathological examination. Surgery is an effective treatment. After completely removing the diseased and affected tissues, the disease has a good prognosis and does not easily relapse.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: When performing an occlusal procedure, it is recommended that the patient should be sitting straight with the head in a natural position. An inappropriate mandibular position caused by an incorrect occlusal record registration or occlusal adjustment can result in damaged teeth and cause functional disorders in muscles and temporomandibular joints. The purpose of this study was to clarify the influence of horizontal cephalic rotation on mandibular position by investigating the three-dimensional positions of condylar and incisal points. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A three-dimensional jaw movement measurement device with six degrees of freedom (the WinJaw System) was used to measure condylar and incisal points. The subjects were asked to sit straight with the head in a natural position. The subjects were then instructed to rotate their head horizontally 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°and 60° in the right or left direction. RESULTS: The results indicated that horizontal cephalic rotation made the condyle on the rotating side shift forward, downward, and toward the inside, and the condyle on the counter rotating side shift backward, upward, and toward the outside. Significant differences in deviations were found for angles of rotation higher than 20°. The incisal point shifted in the forward and counterrotating directions, and significant differences were found for angles of rotation higher than 20°. CONCLUSION: The mandibular position was altered by horizontal cephalic rotations of more than 20°. It is essential to consider the possibility of deviation of the mandibular position during occlusal procedures.

Periodontal-masseteric reflex is implicated in the control of jaw movement and masticatory force during chewing foods. This study is aimed to investigate the synaptic arrangement of mesencephalic periodontal afferents in the trigeminal motor nucleus and to identify the neurotransmitter involved in the presynaptic control of them through the intra-axonal staining of horseradish peroxidase combined with postembedding immunogold methods. Most of the labeled terminals showed synaptic contacts with the small sized dendritic shafts or distal dendrites, while synaptic contacts with the somata or proximal dendrites were not observed. More than one third of the analyzed labeled boutons received presynaptic input from pleomorphic vesicles containing ending (p-ending). About 11% of labeled boutons showed synaptic triads. All the analyzed boutons made synaptic contacts with one to four neuronal profiles and those showing synaptic contact with five or more were not observed. Labeled terminals were larger than presynaptic p-endings. A large number of the analyzed p-endings showed GABA like immunoreactivity. These observations provide evidence that periodontal afferent terminals show very simple and characteristic synaptic arrangements in the trigeminal motor nucleus and that p-endings presynaptic to them may use GABA as a neurotransmitter for presynaptic inhibition.

mastication is basically regulated by central pattern regulator(CPG) of brain system target organ output from CPG is modulated by oral sensory feedback. anterior cross bite pattern infuluence the feedback mechanism and change muscle activity and jaw movement. .The purpose of this study was to investigate diffemce anterior cross bite group from normal group. the selected sample groups were 30 normal patient, 30 anterior cross bite patient. EMG and EGN of Biopak system were used for this study The following results were obtained 1. In resting state of mandible, anterior cross-bite showed the high r muscle activities in all the muscle.(exeeption:left digastric muscle) than normal group. 2. In clenching state, No significant difference in muscle activities of normal group and anterior cross bite group was noticed 3. In swallowing state Normal group showed the higher muscle activities in left and right masseter muscle, right posterior temporal muscle. 4. In maximum opening and closing velocity, normal group showed the higher value than anterior cross-bite. 5. In the mean value of the maximum operiing,the maximum anterior-posterior movement from centric-occlusion, the lateral deviation from centric-occclusion, normal group showed the higher value than anterior cross-bite group.
