The purpose of this study was to clarify the effects of jaw-clenching intensity on masseter muscle oxygen dynamics during clenching and recovery and masseter muscle fatigue using the spatially resolved method of near-infrared spectroscopy. Pulse rate, mean power frequency from electromyography in th...
