Reorganization of Masseter and Temporalis Muscle Single Motor Unit Activity During Experimental Masseter Muscle Pain.
CONCLUSION: The present findings suggest that most biting-task-related jaw muscle SMUs remain active during experimental muscle noxious stimulation. There was some evidence in both the anterior temporalis and masseter muscles for motor unit recruitment and de-recruitment consistent with a motor unit reorganization during experimental pain.
