Three days after functional mandibular advancement, the ultrastructure of rat SM had changed. This change paralleled changes in metabolic, contractile and cytoskeletal, and transport proteins, which affected SM physiology. The energy metabolism of SM increased, and the muscle velocity and force of contraction decreased.
