BACKGROUND: The thickness of the masseter muscle during relaxation and contraction states was measured by ultrasonography. Subjects were classified according to their sagittal skeletal relationships. The association between muscle thickness and facial morphology was studied.
CONTEXT: Masseter muscle thickness influences the skeletal patterns.
AIM: To measure and compare the thickness of the masseter muscle in individuals with skeletal class I occlusion and skeletal class II malocclusions and to correlate its relationship with craniofacial morphology.
SETTINGS AND DESIGN: The study was conducted in a hospital setup and was designed to study the thickness of the masseter muscle in different skeletal morphologies.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seventy two individuals between the ages of 18 and 25 years were divided into Group I, Group IIA and Group IIB according to their skeletal relationships. Masseter muscle thickness was measured by ultrasonography. Eight linear and six angular cephalometric measurements were assessed.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: Analysis of variance and Pearson's correlation analysis.
RESULTS: There was a statistically significant difference in muscle thickness between subjects of different skeletal patterns. Significant positive correlation between masseter muscle thickness and posterior total face height, jarabak ratio, ramus height, mandibular length and significant negative correlations with mandibular plane angle, gonial angle and PP-MP angle were observed.
CONCLUSION: This study indicates the strong association between the masseter muscle and skeletal morphology.
