Abstract
Masseter muscle hypertrophy is a relatively uncommon condition that can occur unilaterally or bilaterally. Pain may be a symptom, but most frequently a clinician is consulted for cosmetic reasons. In this report we present a patient with unilateral masseter muscle hypertrophy who had asymptomatic temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder and was chewing unilaterally from the past 3 years. Ultrasonography (US) confirmed the diagnosis of masseter hypertrophy and the patient was treated with soft flexible splint.
