The Effects of a Jaw-Opening Exercise on Submental Muscles and Hyoid Movement During Swallowing in Healthy AdultsDavies, Sarah Elyse January 2012 (has links)
Objective: Traditionally, swallowing rehabilitation has involved the use of muscle strengthening exercises, such as the head-lift manoeuvre (Shaker et al., 1997), to strengthen the floor of mouth muscles. Clinical reasoning suggests that this particular exercise may be problematic for patients with cervical spine injuries or increased frailty. Recently, Bauer and Huckabee (2010) attempted to determine the efficacy of an alternative exercise for the floor of mouth muscles in healthy adults. The present study aims to expand on this work in a larger population of healthy adults.
Study design: Controlled trial; participants matched for age and sex.
Participants: 23 healthy adults with no history of neurological or muscular impairment.
Method: Participants were assigned into one of two groups: jaw opening exercise (JOE; n = 12) and sham exercise (SE; n = 11). Groups were matched for age and gender. Participants performed their respective exercises three times per day, five days per week, over a six week period. At three times during this period, measures of submental 2-D cross-sectional area and anterior hyoid movement were taken via ultrasound. Additionally, measures of submental muscle myoelectrical activity were taken via surface electromyography. Pre- and post-treatment comparisons, as well as inter-group comparisons, were undertaken.
Results: No significant differences were observed between groups on measures of muscle size, anterior hyoid movement, or myoelectrical activity over time. However, this study has contributed to the future development of an alternative exercise to target the submental muscle group.

"Does human papilloma virus play a role in the histogenesis of the orthokeratinised jaw cyst?"Lalla, Kalpesh 08 September 2015 (has links)
A research report submitted to the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree
of
Master of Science in Dentistry
Johannesburg, 2015 / Objectives: To analyse the clinico-pathological features of orthokeratinised jaw cysts (OJCs) and to determine whether human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA can be detected in OJCs.
Material and methods: The clinical and radiological information of 30 patients diagnosed with OJCs were reviewed and the respective histology samples were studied for light microscopic features characteristic of HPV infection. The 30 OJCs were further evaluated for the presence of HPV by using consensus HPV polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Results: Patients with OJC ranged from 13 to 71-years (mean, 30.9 years; ± 12.9 years). There was a predilection for males (21/30). Most OJCs were found in the mandible (80%) and 44.8% were associated with an impacted tooth. Koilocyte-like characteristics were identified in 70% of cases, while 43.3% of cases showed a verruciform pattern of hyperkeratosis. All 30 OJCs were negative for HPV-DNA.
Conclusion: HPV infection does not appear to play a role in the OJC and is not responsible for the wart-like histological changes that may be encountered in OJCs.
