DOI: 10.1109/tbme.2021.3070867
Abstract: Intraoral functions are results of complex and well-orchestrated sensorimotor loop operations, and therefore vulnerable to small functional or neural defects. To secure the vital intraoral functions, it is important to find a way to favorably… read more here.
