Muscle Fiber Type Composition, Fiber Diameter, Capillary Density in Temporalis and Masseter Muscles and Correlation with Bite Force

Muscle Fiber Type Composition, Fiber Diameter, Capillary Density in Temporalis and Masseter Muscles and Correlation with Bite Force

The jaw muscles are essential components in the stomatognatic system. Their complex architecture allows them to execute several motor tasks. One of the structural peculiarities is the presence of hybrid and neonatal fibers.We studied the differences of the fiber-type in masseter and temporalis muscl...
