title: [Clinical-experimental study of muscle activity of complete denture wearers with various prostheses before and after equilibration].
abstract: The present electromyographic investigations, which were carried out by patients with full dentures should show if the activity-situation of the masticatory muscles would change either using a new full denture without equilibration or using new full dentures with equilibration. Other questions were: Is it possible to classify the patients in such, who prefer the masseter muscles or the temporalis muscles during mastication? Exist a correlation between the preferred masticatory side and an increased activity of the same side masticatory muscles?
