First the author describes how the activator after Herren works, and the part played by the masticatory muscles. In a long-term study the functional behaviour of the external pterygoid muscle during activator therapy on children was investigated by electromyographic recording. Its results are discussed and compared to conclusions from experiments carried out by Petrović et al. concerning the growth of condylar cartilage in rats treated with a device of the postural hyperpropulsive type ("hyperpropulseur").
首先，作者描述了Herren矫治器的作用原理以及咀嚼肌所起的作用。在一项长期研究中，通过肌电图记录对儿童在使用矫治器治疗期间翼外肌的功能行为进行了研究。讨论了其结果，并与Petrović等人关于用姿势性过度前推型装置（“hyperpropulseur”）治疗的大鼠髁突软骨生长的实验结论进行了比较。
