Masticatory Muscle Loading

Masticatory Muscle Loading is a biomechanical phenomenon that refers to the application of force by the jaw-closing muscles during chewing, distinguished from other orofacial loading mechanisms by its origin in the contractile activity of the masseter, temporalis, and medial pterygoid muscles.
