Aim: To compare the electromyographic activity and the asymmetry index among degrees of severity of temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Methods: Surface electromyography (EMG) of the right and left masseter and temporalis muscles was performed in 126 undergraduate students at rest and at maximal volu...
