The study aimed to investigate the relationship between masseter muscle activity during wakefulness and TMD-related symptoms, psychosocial status, and pain-related disability.
BackgroundMasseter muscle activity during wakefulness may be associated with temporomandibular disorder (TMD)-related symptoms, psychosocial status and pain-related disability; however, this relationship is unclear.ObjectivesThis study aimed to determine the relationship between masseter muscle electromyography (EMG) burst/duration during wakefulness and TMD-related symptoms, psychosocial status and pain-related disability.MethodsSixty participants were assessed masseter muscle activity during wakefulness using a data-logger-type ultraminiature EMG system and TMD-related symptoms, psychosocial status and pain-related disability through Axis I and II of the diagnostic criteria for TMD (DC/TMD). EMG bursts lasting longer than 0.25 s but less than 2.0 s and those lasting longer than 2.0 s were classified as phasic and tonic bursts, respectively.ResultsParticipants with palpation-related pain in the temporalis and masseter muscles, as assessed through the DC/TMD examination form in Axis I, had more bursts (number/h) (p = .035 and p = .009, respectively) and longer duration (time/h) (p = .013 and p = .004, respectively) of tonic bursts of the masseter muscle during wakefulness. Participants with palpation-related pain in the masseter muscles had higher oral behaviour scores during wakefulness using Axis II (p = .001), which affected the number and duration of tonic bursts of the masseter muscle activity during wakefulness (p = .011 and p = .007, respectively).ConclusionAs tonic bursts mainly reflect clenching, individuals with pain in the masseter muscles by palpation may have a high frequency and longer duration of clenching, as well as a high frequency of oral behaviours during wakefulness.
