Clinical Trial Summary

Objective: To investigate, through a controlled and randomized clinical trial, the effectiveness of using Melissa officinalis in different concentrations in the treatment of children and adolescents with probable sleep bruxism. Methodology: This is a randomized, triple-blind, crossover, and placebo-controlled clinical trial. The research participants will be children aged 5 to 10 years old and adolescents aged 11 to 16 years old who attend dental treatment at the FO/UFRJ Pediatric Dentistry Clinics. After approval by the Human Research Ethics Committee, children and adolescents will undergo homeopathic treatment with Melissa officinalis in different concentrations for possible sleep bruxism. In addition, research participants will undergo an assessment of TMJ, sleep, circadian cycle, quality of life, and quality of life related to oral health. The data will be tabulated and analyzed according to sex, age group, presence of possible sleep bruxism, presence or absence of TMD, circadian characteristics, presence or absence of sleep disorders, daytime and nighttime behavioral characteristics. The data will be tabulated and evaluated using SPSS 21.0. Absolute and relative frequency, odds ratio, correlation analysis and other relevant analyzes and statistical tests (p<0.05) will be carried out in accordance with the objectives proposed by the study
