Electromyographic analysis of the "baccinator mechanism" in human beings

R. E. Perkins, P. L. Blanton and N. L. Biggs

Electromyography of the muscles of the "buccinator mechanism" was undertaken, utilizing indwelling fine-wire electrodes. Electromyograms were made of 14 subjects with normal occlusion during various oral activities. Several activities elicited simultaneous contraction of all muscles. Simultaneous activity represents a potential restraining force of this muscular band on the dentition.
