ABSTRACT
Existing treatment methods of zygomatic complex fractures, which are complicated by contrac- ture of the masseter as a result of displaced bone fragments, have to be improved. Lack of muscle relaxation leads to the formation of local hypertonicity. In spasmodic muscle fibers varies perfusion and hypoxia occurs, which is accompanied by the release of inflammatory mediators and activation of pain receptors. Over time, areas formed local hypertonicity specific trigger points that contain multiple sensory loci and include one or more sensitive nerve endings. A device for the effective electromyographic study of masseters as a source of their condition and the dynamics of changes in masticatory muscles during patient treatment by improving the fixation system on the face of the patient and the introduction of more perfect spatial coordinate system for mathematical calculations masseter motor position (or triggered) point. Patients were examined before and in the dynamics of treatment according to our methodology, which included proper masseter relaxation, reposition and fixation of bone fragments and further medical therapy.
