Surface electromyography (sEMG) of the anterior temporalis and masseter muscles was recorded at rest, during chewing and at maximum voluntary clenching (MVC). Masticatory efficiency was assessed using colorimetric analysis, and TMJ function was evaluated using joint vibration analysis (JVA).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Occlusal timing parameters were comparable between groups. During maximum bite force (MBF), Group 1 demonstrated significantly lower MBF on the cleft side (38.64\u2009\u00b1\u20097.00%) than Group 2 (51.48\u2009\u00b1\u20094.63%). At MVC, normalised sEMG activity was significantly higher bilaterally in Group 1 compared with controls for both muscles. Masticatory efficiency was significantly reduced in Group 1 (optical density 0.42\u2009\u00b1\u20090.15 vs 0.76\u2009\u00b1\u20090.15). JVA showed significantly elevated noncleft-side total integral in Group 1 versus Group 2, and integral &lt;300\u2005Hz on the noncleft side, while the significantly elevated integral &gt;300\u2005Hz on the noncleft side also persisted.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>UCLP patients exhibit significant occlusal force asymmetry, reduced masticatory efficiency and a task-dependent pattern of masticatory muscle recruitment.
