guide to the report data reading

area under the curve of the electrical activity of muscles examined in the

time.

The normal range of the index are in the range 100% ± 15%.

Higher values indicated that the subject should be considered a

strong clencher.

Values lower than normal may express a condition of

proprioceptive inhibition acute with presence of pain during

MVC, or chronic with presence of a nociceptive protective

reflex.

If the POC, TORS and BAR indexes are normal the IMP index

is related to the vertical dimension.

In this case there are indications on the possibility of raising

(index higher than normal) or reducing (index lower than

normal) the vertical dimension, compatibly with the aesthetic

condition of the patient.

• Outcome

It is possible to add some notes to the report. Write them in this box to

put them in the printed report.

• “Add to report” Checkbox

If the check is in the box, the contents of the EXTtab will be included in

the printed report, otherwise it will be ignored.

POC tab

In this tab the average activity of the four muscles Masseter right and left

and Temporal right and left, are represented by pie charts.
