  • Title: EMG silent periods in immediate complete denture patients: a longitudinal study.
    Author: McCall WD, Tallgren A, Ash MM.
    Journal: J Dent Res; 1979 Dec; 58(12):2353-9. PubMed ID: 292684.
    Abstract:
    Jaw muscle silent periods in response to chin taps were recorded from immediate complete denture patients before extraction of a residual anterior dentition, after insertion of the dentures, and three and six months after insertion. After three months' use of the dentures, the mean EMG silent period duration was significantly increased compared to the pre-extraction stage.
