H-reflexes in masseter and temporalis muscles in man

In contrast with limb muscles, studies on H-reflexes in the trigeminal system are scarce. The present report aimed at reevaluating the responses obtained in the masseter and temporalis muscles after electrical stimulation of their nerves. Twenty-four subjects participated in the experiments. The reflexes were elicited in the masseter and temporal muscles by monopolar stimulation and recorded using surface electrodes. Stimulation of the...
