dc.description.abstractIntroductionsUnderstanding the factors influencing craniofacial structure growth is crucial for addressing craniofacial deformities. This study evaluates masseter muscle volume, activity, and maximum bite force across different skeletal malocclusion groups and aims to evaluate the masseter muscle volume, activity, and maximum bite force (BF) according to different skeletal malocclusion groups.MethodsThis study aimed to assess masseter muscle volume, activity, and maximum bite force (BF) across different skeletal malocclusion groups in 60 young adults (18-30 years) seeking treatment at Kirikkale University Faculty of Dentistry. Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging, radiological measurements, surface electromyography (sEMG), and force sensor measurements were employed.ResultsResults revealed significant differences in sEMG measurements based on sagittal classification. Vertical direction groups showed notable results in muscle volume and BF, though no significant differences were observed in sEMG values. A correlation was identified between BF and sEMG, but no correlation was found between muscle volume and other parameters.ConclusionsThe findings obtained in this study suggest that the significant relationship between EMG and sagittal skeletal classification could be a valuable diagnostic tool. However, concerns about reliability were raised due to uneven distribution in muscle volume and BF among vertical direction groups. The lack of significant results in muscle volume, sEMG, and BF was attributed to CBCT limitations in soft tissue imaging and the small sample size, emphasizing caution in interpreting the findings.
