Background. The aim of this study was to propose and establish the proof of concept of an approach to synchronize 3D Electromagnetic Articulography (3D-EMA) with Surface Electromyography (SEMG) systems based on the standard components of these equipment. Methods. Initially it was planned and obtained the required equipment with the appropriate characteristics required, and them it was created the proper conditions to register the synchronized signals provided by both systems. Thus, we selected a SEMG with a switch module incorporated to be able to achieve synchronization of signals. After the system setup was stablished, chewing tasks were recorded on a healthy volunteer, collecting a proof-of-concept database. The variability among recordings of the database were analyzed in order to detect possible interferences. Results. The analysis of the chewing task recordings obtained with the synchronized 3D EMA and SEMG signals in the present study did not reveal significant distortions, all values were within the informed by the manufacturers of both systems. The method presented the advantage of using only components that are already included with the equipment employed.Conclusion. The method of analysis described in this paper is an effective tool that facilitates the investigation of mandibular movements synchronized in two domains: articulatory movements and electromyographic activity. Thus, it is promising to be applied in different clinical situations to improve the analysis of the complexity of masticatory activity, in addition being able to generate new insights on this topic.
