  • Title: TMJ symptom severity and EMG silent periods.
    Author: McCall WD, Uthman AA, Mohl ND.
    Journal: J Dent Res; 1978; 57(5-6):709-14. PubMed ID: 279589.
    Abstract:
    The hypotheses that latency or duration of the EMG silent period evoked by a tap to the chin during a maximal clench would be more prolonged in more severe TMJ patients were tested. The mean latency did not, and the mean duration did, increase significantly with increased severity of TMJ dysfunction.
