Comparison was made of the masseter muscle reflexes evoked by tapping on osseointegrated single-tooth aluminum oxide implants, and on natural teeth in nine patients. Tapping on eight out of nine patients evoked an inhibitory masseter muscle reflex, whereas tapping on all of the natural teeth evoked an inhibitory reflex. The threshold for this reflex was clearly elevated in implants compared to natural teeth. The pathway for the impulses responsible for this reflex and the clinical implications of the elevated threshold are discussed.
对9名患者的骨整合单颗氧化铝种植体和天然牙叩诊诱发的咬肌反射进行了比较。9名患者中有8名叩诊种植体诱发了抑制性咬肌反射，而叩诊所有天然牙均诱发了抑制性反射。与天然牙相比，该反射在种植体中的阈值明显升高。文中讨论了引起该反射的冲动传导途径以及阈值升高的临床意义。
