Clinical Trial Summary

Considering that occupational balance and bruxism are negatively affected by stress, this study aims to determine whether there is a difference in terms of occupational balance between individuals with and without bruxism.


Clinical Trial Description

Occupation refers to daily life activities and task groups that are named, organized, given value and meaning by individuals and a culture. Occupation is everything people do to keep themselves busy, including taking care of themselves, enjoying life, and contributing to the social and economic fabric of their communities. Bruxism is a parafunctional habit among temporomandibular disorders that occurs as a result of clenching and grinding teeth and overloading the stomatognathic structures. At the same time, bruxism is the chewing movement of the mandible, characterized by involuntary, rhythmic and non-functional teeth clenching and grinding, usually seen during sleep, and manifested by severe head and neck pain, limitation in jaw movements, pain and spasm in the chewing muscles. Although its etiology cannot be fully explained, it is thought that factors such as stress, occlusal disorders, allergies and sleep quality may be the source. The deterioration or decrease in occupational balance may also be associated with people's quality of life. Occupational imbalance is reported to affect both physical and psychological state, creating significant stress on the body and mind, causing mental health problems and burnout. Considering that occupational balance and bruxism are negatively affected by stress, this study aims to determine whether there is a difference in terms of occupational balance between individuals with and without bruxism. ;
