The angle of the mandible, which may be either inverted or everted, is marked by rough, oblique ridges on each side, for the attachment of the masseter laterally, and the pterygoideus internus ( medial pterygoid muscle ) medially; the stylomandibular ligament is attached to the angle between these muscles.
42.
Examples include the " Bruxcore Bruxism-Monitoring Device " ( BBMD, " Bruxcore Plate " ), the " intra-splint force detector " ( ISFD ), and electromyographic devices to measure masseter or temporalis muscle activity ( e . g . the " BiteStrip ", and the " Grindcare " ).
43.
It then curves upward over the body of the mandible at the antero-inferior angle of the masseter; passes forward and upward across the cheek to the angle of the mouth, then ascends along the side of the nose, and ends at the medial commissure of the eye, under the name of the angular artery.

Scientific criticism points out that the lips of modern cats, especially larger species, display incredible elasticity and the usual lip length would stretch suitably, despite the larger degree of opening, and that in living carnivores the lip line is always anterior to the masseter muscle, which in " Smilodon " was located just behind the carnassials.
45.
Otherwise it can be assumed that their anatomy was generally not as specialized as that of his later relatives, but it had carnassial teeth to process more effectively meat and flat fangs, located just below the nose, without being cross-rounded as in other un-specialized mammal carnivores, while the accommodation area of the masseter muscle ( involved in the movements of the jaw ) was reduced.
46.
Bruising at the site of injection is not a side effect of the toxin but rather of the mode of administration, and is reported as preventable if the clinician applies pressure to the injection site; when it occurs, it is reported in specific cases to last 7 11 days . When injecting the masseter muscle of the jaw, loss of muscle function can result in a loss or reduction of power to chew solid foods.
47.
Some of these questions are geared toward tongue protrusion and an opening of lips when the client is in repose; habitual mouth breathing; digit sucking; existence of high and narrow palatal arch; ankyloglossia ( tongue-tie ); malocclusions, ( Class II, III ); weak chewing muscles ( masseter ); weak lip muscles ( orbicularis oris ); overdeveloped chin muscles ( mentalis ); muscular imbalance; abnormal dentition.
