The mechanical action of Dirol chewing gum on the periodontal tissues and masticatory muscles

Regional hemodynamics, bioelectric activity of masticatory muscles, and compactness of mandibular bone were studied by the rheographic method for measuring periodontal bloodflow, by electromyography, and echo-osteometry in 52 volunteers after 4-week regular chewing of Dirol chewing gum. Congestive h...

Description
Summary:	Regional hemodynamics, bioelectric activity of masticatory muscles, and compactness of mandibular bone were studied by the rheographic method for measuring periodontal bloodflow, by electromyography, and echo-osteometry in 52 volunteers after 4-week regular chewing of Dirol chewing gum. Congestive hyperemia develops in periodontal tissues; functional activity of masticatory muscles and compactness of mandibular bone are normal.
