Department of Occlusion, Dental Research Institute, School of Dentistry, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109 Jaw muscle silent periods in response to chin taps were recorded from immediate complete denture patients before extraction of a residual anterior dentition, after insertion of the dentures, and three and six months after insertion. After three months' use of the dentures, the mean EMG silent period duration was significantly increased compared to the pre-extraction stage.
