    Notes: Eight children, mean age of 12 years, exercised maximal voluntary tooth clenching to determine the isometric endurance time of the masseter muscle. The endurance time seemed to depend on psychological and/or physiological determinants. The latter might have been Wedensky inhibition, changes in energy metabolism, progressive fatigue and so-called muscle fitness.

    Notes: Twelve children, aged 9–14 years, exercised maximal voluntary tooth clenching until facial pains were experienced and could no longer be endured. The pains were localized in the masseter and temporalis muscles and, occasionally, in the supra-orbital region. After onset of clenching pains appeared, on average, in 49 s (pain threshold) and they could, on average, be endured for 118 s (pain tolerance). The pain threshold varied significantly between individuals, but not within individuals. The number of pain sites, and the number of teeth in contact during clenching, did not determine the moment of onset of pains, nor the ability to endure pains. The pain tolerance did not seem to be influenced by the pain threshold.

    Notes: A newly developed fluoride-releasing composite and sealant were tested, in vitro, with regard to homogeneity, cavity adaptation, microleakage, and its effect on the extent of an artificially induced carious attack. Compared with a commercially available composite, the fluoride-releasing material showed more desirable properties in combating caries, in uniformity of internal structure, and in microleakage.

    Notes: A review is given of some of the major symptoms and signs of facial pains presumed to have their origin in the jaw muscles; that is, the temporomandibular joint pain dysfunction syndrome, the myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome or the mandibular pain dysfunction syndrome.

    Notes: Six male subjects exercised maximal voluntary tooth clenching until fatigue appeared in the masseter muscle and until pains and exhaustion of this muscle could no longer be endured; that is, the fatigue threshold and the pain tolerance of the muscle were determined in seconds. An occlusal splint was inserted and the clenching exercises were repeated. During these exercises, and also during 10s of clenching, the electrical activity in the masseter muscle was recorded by bipolar surface electrodes and linearly integrated. Use of the splint did not result in significant changes in the subjective sensations of onset of fatigue and endurance of pain. As the periods of clenching increased, after insertion of the splint, the electrical activity decreased consistently, and use of the splint caused a significant decrease in the electrical activity of the pain tolerance test. As induced by the splint, there was no orderly pattern in changes of the fatigue thresholds and pain tolerances in relation to changes in the electrical activities of these parameters. The mode of action of the splint, in reducing the muscle activity, might have been that of stretching the elevator jaw muscles beyond their resting length.

    Notes: A review is given of selected cultural, clinical and physiological issues pertaining to: is human experience of pain. Special attention is devoted to the modern gate control theory of pain as it applies to the sensory pathways of the fifth cranial nerve; that is, facial pains and some of their associated symptoms and signs.

    Notes: Six human subjects exercised maximum voluntary tooth clenching and right-sided tooth grinding to determine the onset of fatigue in the right and left masseter muscle. Static and dynamic contractile activity of the two muscles was determined by surface electromyography. Muscle fatigue appeared after about 30s of isometric contractions (clenching), while 30s of combined concentric and eccentric contractions (grinding) induced no fatigue. In the right muscle the contractile activity of negative work (eccentric contractions of mandibular laterotrusion) was about 50% of that of positive work (concentric contractions of mandibular mediotrusion). During clenching an increased number of contacting teeth might have facilitated the contractile activity of the two muscles. During grinding the height of the cusps of the working side teeth might have contributed to a decrease of tension production by the right masseter muscle. Non-working side tooth contacts and peripheral receptors might have facilitated the contractile activity of the left masseter muscle during tooth grinding. Static contractile activity of the mandibular elevator muscles produced high levels of isometric tension and led to masseter muscle fatigue in about 30s. The same duration of dynamic contractile activity, resulting in low levels of tension during positive and negative work, did not induce fatigue.

    Notes: The pattern of molar and canine contacts and the contractile activity of the masseter and anterior temporal muscle were studied, through integrated electromyography, during right-sided mastication of banana and apple in ten healthy male subjects. Tooth contacts occurred on both the chewing and the non-chewing side. This study does not support the clinical concept that non-chewing side contacts are necessarily detrimental to the jaw muscles and the temporomandibular joints. The activity of the elevator jaw muscles and the tooth contact patterns suggest that the mandible tilted around a sagittal axis, and rotated around a vertical axis, during the phase of elevation of a masticatory cycle.

    Notes: To determine the onset of subjective fatigue and the subjective endurance of fatigue and pains in the masseter muscle, ten adult male subjects exercised maximal voluntary tooth clenching. Concomitantly, the electrical activity in the masseter muscle was recorded by bipolar surface electrodes and integrated. Onset of subjective fatigue occurred on average 21 s after onset of muscle hyperactivity and the isometric endurance time of the masseter muscle, during which period severe muscle pains were present, was on average 82 s. The electrical muscle activity of the threshold and endurance tests showed a curvilinear configuration (y = a+b logx), and it is suggested that progressive physiological, or peripheral, muscle fatigue accompanied the psychological, or central, endurance of tooth clenching.

    Notes: Twelve children, five girls and seven boys with a mean age of 12 years, exercised maximal voluntary tooth clenching until intolerable pains and total subjective exhaustion of at least the right masseter muscle forced the children to stop the isometric muscle exercise; that is, the pain tolerance, or the isometric endurance time, of at least the right masseter muscle was determined in seconds, and it amounted to an average of 100 s. Concomitantly, the electrical activity in the right masseter muscle was recorded by bipolar surface electrodes and integrated, and it showed a significant decrease of 32 % during the endurance test, probably as an expression of progressive physiological muscle fatigue. A large ANB angle was associated with relatively little decline of the contractile activity and a trend not to endure pains, possibly because isometric tension was generated predominantly by muscle fibres with a high anaerobic capacity.
