Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and anxiety on masseter muscle thickness by using ultrasonography.

Detailed Description

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and anxiety on masseter muscle thickness by using ultrasonography. A total of 68 patients were included in this study. Height and weight of the patients were measured. BMI was calculated. The Control Group Without Anxiety - Normal BMI (15 patients) was composed of patients in general. Working groups were formed as High BMI \& Anxiety Normal (19 patients), Normal BMI \& High Anxiety (15 patients), and High BMI \& High Anxiety (19 patients). The Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) was applied to the participants. Muscle thickness measurements were first measured by using the high-frequency linear scanning probe of an ultrasound device to measure the contraction and relaxation of the right masseter muscle. Then, the contraction and relaxation of the left masseter muscle was measured.
