BACKGROUND
Hypertrophy of the masticatory muscles may affect the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in several different combinations.
METHODS
A case of bilateral temporalis muscle hypertrophy, with masseter and pterygoid involvement, in a 26-year-old white woman in the fourth month of gestation is reported. Magnetic resonance imaging and physical examination were used for diagnosis. Hypertrophy was considered to be of acquired nature. The patient was managed using alternative, noninvasive methods.
RESULTS
After 2 months, visible reduction was observed. Clinical symptoms of muscle discomfort were also reported.
CONCLUSIONS
In the presented case, we were able to use an alternative, noninvasive form of treatment, which provided our patient with an overall improvement in physical and psychologic aspects.
