Department of Orthodontics, University of Ulm, Albert-Einstein-Allee 11, 89081 Ulm, Germany; Department of Clinical Physics, Kempenhaeghe Epilepsy and Sleep Center, Sterkselseweg 65, 5591 VE Heeze, the Netherlands.
Objective: This study aimed to characterize amplitude topographies for masseter motor units (MUs) three-dimensionally, and to assess whether high-density surface electromyography (HDsEMG) is able to detect MU samples that represent the masseter's entire MU pool.
Methods: Ten healthy adult volunteers participated in the study, which combined three EMG techniques. A HDsEMG grid covering the entire masseter, and intramuscular fine-wire electrodes were used to obtain two independent MU samples for comparison.
