Nankali's Masticatory Force Systematization force of the masticatory system and discovered the differences in the produced force, which was approximately doubled. The periodontal system controls automatically the measure of mastication force in this process and the jaw elevator muscles develop the main forces used in mastication. Dr. Weber worked out that 1 cm cross section surface area of any masticatory muscle can produce approximately 10 kg force. The following average surfaces were found: temporalis - 8 cm, masseter - 7.5 cm, and medial pterygoid - 4 cm which makes a total of 19.5cm. However, this force in some people is measured up to 3900N
Extensor pollicis longus muscle interphalangeal joint by flexor pollicis longus is considerably reduced in wrist flexion. It also applies an extensor force at the metacarpophalangeal joint together with the extensor pollicis brevis and extends and adducts at the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb. Tenosynovitis, inflammatory irritation of the synovial sheath, is relatively common in the third compartment after repetitive activities such as drum playing. Extensor pollicis longus muscle In human anatomy, the extensor pollicis longus muscle (EPL) is a skeletal muscle located dorsally on the forearm. It is much larger than the extensor pollicis brevis, the origin of which it partly covers and acts
