    Notes: The long-term treatment effects of biofeedback and occlusal splints on mandibular dysfunction were compared. Thirty female patients were randomly divided into two treatment groups. One group had full coverage splints, the other group received biofeedback training. At the re-examinations 1 and 12 months after completion of therapy, the subjective and clinical symptoms were significantly reduced in both groups. No significant differences between the groups were found. A stepwise analysis of regression indicated that biofeedback training may be a useful alternative to splint therapy in cases where night time bruxing is not the dominating feature.

    Notes: Abstract Surface electromyographic (EMG) recordings from the left and right masseteric areas during physical and psychological induced stress were obtained from 20 patients with mandibular dysfunction and 20 healthy controls. Integrated electromyographic activity was not significantly different for the two sides but was higher for patients than for controls during both stress and relaxation. Anxiety level, as measured with the Taylor Manifest Anxiety Scale, was higher for patients. Biofeedback treatment for the patients resulted in significantly reduced signs and symptoms of mandibular dysfunction. When the test procedures were repeated, the controls had not changed in their electromyographic responses during stress, whereas the patients showed a significant decrease in this respect. The results obtained are discussed in terms of a systems-oriented etiological concept.

    Notes: Abstract Twenty patients with mandibular dysfunction, 10 acute and 10 chronic, were trained with electromyographic biofeedback from either m. masseter or m. frontalis area. The electromyographic activity in both muscle areas were recorded during six training sessions. The mean electromyographic activity decreased significantly within the sessions for both muscle areas, progressively more often for the m. masseter area. The activity did not decrease significantly between sessions for any muscle area. The clinical and subjective symptoms of mandibular dysfunction improved significantly after the training. No differences, electromyographically or clinically, among acute, chronic, m. masseter area, or m. frontalis area feedback patients could be observed. No correlation between decrease in electromyographic activity and symptoms could be established. Since a simplistic neuromuscular learning model for biofeedback training gains little support from these results, alternative views are discussed.
