BACKGROUND: Oromandibular dystonia is a movement disorder that is characterized by involuntary masticatory and/or lingual muscle contracture. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We have also researched movement disorders such as oromandibular dystonia, dyskinesia, and bruxism, as well as diseases caused by abnormal muscle contracture of the masticatory muscles, such as masseteric hypertrophy, hyperplasia of the coronoid process [sites.google.com]
