Effects of low occlusal loading on the neuromuscular behavioral development of cortically-elicited jaw movements in growing rats
Abstract The effect of altered occlusal force on masticatory-related neuromuscular control, which projects from the anterior part of the cortical masticatory area (A-CMA), during growth remains unclear. This study sought to evaluate the effect of occlusal hypofunction on neuromuscular development of...
