Abstrakt: The article presents an electromyographic study that examined the muscles that contribute to postural stability during mandibular advancement. It cites that 14 pairs of muscles appertaining to the neck, face and leg were recorded and the RMS value and integrated electromyography (iEMG) were calculated. Results have shown that inserting the Sp90 occlusal splint resulted to the decrease in the postural control.
