Mean values (µV) and standard deviations. Legend: MM = masseter muscle; TA = temporal muscle; L = left; R = right; T0 = pre-treatment period; T1 = post-treatment period; AMR = muscular activity at rest; AMR TENS = muscular activity at rest after transcutaneous electrical neural stimulation; COTTON = force exerted on the maximum voluntary clenching on cotton rolls; CLENCH = force exerted on the maximum voluntary clenching on teeth.
