13. Estudo clinico comparativo entre duas drogas de ação antinflamatoria (dexametasona e meloxicam) no controle do endema e Trismo apos exodontia de terceiros molares inferiores inclusos
The attempt to find ways to reduce postsurgical discornfort pam, swelling and trismus on third molar removal, have been related in many studies. News drugs such: analgesics, anesthetics and anti-inflammatory have been evaluated for this purpose. The aim of this study was to compare clinically the efficiency of two antiinflammatory drugs f (Dexamethasone and

14. Estudo comparativo sobre a eficacia de duas drogas de ação analgesica (ibuprofeno e tramadol) apos extração de terceiros molares inferiores inclusos
The aim of this study was to compare clinically the efficiency of two analgesics substances (Ibuprofen - 600 mg and Tramadol - 100 mg), which were administered in a pre-surgical unique dose for pain control of the swelling and buccal opening limitation, afier impacted inferior third molar extraction.. Sixteen adult patients from Unicamp (Piracicaba Dental Sc

15. The Trismus-Pseudocampylodactyly Syndrome
A new family with the combination of trismus and curvature of the fingers on dorsiflexion of the wrist is described. Data from 24 affected members of this family make it likely that the measurements of mouth opening and of wrist angles are sufficient to recognize the syndrome. The affected persons also show a mild degree of short stature but only when compar

17. Inverse activity of masticatory muscles with and without trismus: a brainstem syndrome.
Clinical and EMG findings in 10 cases of intrinsic brainstem lesions are reported with paradoxical activity of jaw closing muscles during jaw opening, with and without trismus. In five cases with trigeminal anaesthesia, the inverse activity of jaw closers is interpreted as a manifestation of disturbance in the central programming of mastication in the motor

18. Electrophysiological investigations of cephalic tetanus
Electrophysiological studies of a patient with cephalic tetanus, manifested by trismus and unilateral facial palsy, revealed that the trismus resulted from strictly unilateral masseter spasm which stopped during sleep, a normal silent period in the involved masseter muscles, initially prolonged distal latency of the paretic orbicularis muscles, and abnormal

19. Tetanus: delay in diagnosis in England and Wales.
A 7 day delay occurred in the diagnosis of cephalic tetanus in a 69 year old woman who developed an ipsilateral facial palsy 5 days after a facial laceration. Cranial nerve palsies often precede trismus in this form of tetanus.

20. Cephalic tetanus studied with single fibre EMG.
In a case of cephalic tetanus with left facial spasms and trismus, the repetitive stimulation of the left facial nerve at 3, 10 and 20 Hz showed no facilitation or decrement. The amplitudes of the blink reflex were 50% lower on the affected side. The silent period of the masseter muscles was shortened. Concentric needle examination of the masseters and left

21. Jaw closing spasm--a form of focal dystonia? An electrophysiological study.
The case of a 36 year old man suffering from unilateral right jaw closing spasms over two years is reported. Permanent spasm with trismus severely impeding mouth-opening was combined with paroxysms triggered by various sensory stimuli. The diagnosis of temporo-mandibular joint syndrome was considered but treatment failed to improve the symptoms. Neurological
