| Popis: | This study compared the histochemical characteristics of the temporalis and masseter muscles in monkeys who underwent mandibular advancement with and without immobilization of the mandible. The results showed, when compared with controls, that the animals who underwent maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) following advancement of the mandible had significant atrophy in both temporalis and masseter muscles. In contrast, much less myoatrophy was noted in the animals who underwent rigid internal fixation and no MMF following advancement of the mandible. |
