Muscle-Bone Crosstalk in the Masticatory System: From Biomechanical to Molecular Interactions
The masticatory system is a complex and highly organized group of structures, including craniofacial bones (maxillae and mandible), muscles, teeth, joints, and neurovascular elements. While the musculoskeletal structures of the head and neck are known to have a different embryonic origin, morphology...
