However, there have been no studies on the relationship between the load on the temporomandibular-joint (TMJ) and EMG activity in each mastication cycle. The purpose of this study was to clarify the relationship by simultaneously measuring the load on the TMJ and EMG activity in a monkey during mastication of food with different properties (hard food : sweet potato, soft food: banana). The maximum load on the TMJ of the monkey was lower during mastication of soft food than during mastication of hard food, suggesting that changes in the functional jaw movement in the mastication system caused by different properties of food affected the load on the TMJ. The maximum loading on the TMJ of the monkey in each masticatory cycle occurred in a pause of the EMG activity during mastication of the soft food as well as during mastication of the hard food. Analysis of the mastication rhythm suggested that the maximum pressure occurred at the end of occlusal phase in each mastication cycle.}, pages = {2004-11-20--2004-11-20}, title = {硬食物および軟食物咀嚼運動時におけるサル顎関節部と咀嚼筋活動との比較}, volume = {2004-11-20}, year = {} }
