===The EMG signal===
EMG signal is the most common method applied to study these patients. However many pathophysiological phenomena and the nature of the signal influence the measure and create an hard barriers against a reliable application of this findings. These errors are compounded by the counterintuitive effects that some system parameters can have on the EMG signal like the phenomenon of crosstalk, amplitude cancellation and the non-stationary of the EMG signal<ref>Farina D, Merletti R, Enoka RM ((2004) [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15016793/ The extraction of neural strategies from the surface EMG.] J Appl Physiol 96: 1486-1495.</ref>.

Although there are many traditional methods as well as innovative methods for EMG’s signal elaboration, a precise correlation between EMG and health condition of the underlying neurological structures is still difficult to obtain.<ref>Lehman GJ, McGill SM (1999) The importance of normalization in the interpretation of surface electromyography: a proof of principle.

===The trigeminal motor system===
The second argumentation for the unreliability of EMG lies in the neuroanatomy and neurofunctionality itself of the masticatory system and in particular way of the trigeminal motor system.
