Examination of the relationship among dental occlusion, body posture, body sway and the general health of the body using time-series analyses

我们建立了同步测量的身体摇摆和头的位置，和那些的肌电图（EMG）活动的颅颈肌和牙齿咬合，以建立定量评价阐明口颌功能和身体的一般健康之间的相互关系的方法。研究结果显示，身体姿势、头部位置与牙齿咬合有显著的相关性。此外，我们能够建立定量评价的方法，阐明牙齿咬合和身体姿势之间的相互关系。

We built the simultaneous measurements of body sway and head position, and those of the electromyographic (EMG) activity of craniocervical muscles and dental occlusion in order to establish the methodology for the quantitative evaluation elucidating the interrelationship between stomatognathic function and the general health of the body. The result of our examination clearly showed that there was a significant correlation between body posture, head position and dental occlusion. Moreover, we were able to establish the methodology for the quantitative evaluation elucidating the interrelationship between dental occlusion and body posture.
