Filter by:This study compared the effectiveness of Kinesio tape and occlusal splint application in improving sleep quality and reducing myofascial pain in children with sleep bruxism.
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
The overall objective of the clinical investigation is to evaluate whether the use of the AesyBite Active reduces the bruxism activity.
The goal of this randomized controlled study is to compare laser acupuncture versus modified physical therapy in controlling bruxism in children. The main questions aim to answer are: - Laser will decrease tempro-mandibular joint pain from bruxism more than modified physical therapy? - Laser will decrease muscles activity from bruxism more than modified physical therapy? Children took 6 sessions of either laser acupuncture or modified physical therapy Researchers compared laser acupuncture versus modified physical therapy to see if any decrease in tempro-mandibular joint pain and muscles activity from bruxism
The effects of endocrine disruptors (EDs) are well known. Therefore, the aim of this observational study is to analyse saliva samples from volunteers who request a bruxism splint, before, during and after fitting, to find out whether they are assimilated by the body, answering the following questions: - Do Michigan-type splints release endocrine disruptors or substances of particular concern? - In what concentration are they present in saliva? Participants will be asked to take saliva samples at different times over a period of 6 months. This will also be accompanied by the relevant clinical and oral history. A previous in vitro study is required, which is complemented by an in vivo study. The methodology is new in dentistry: super solvents which, combined with liquid chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer (LC-HRMS), allows a wider range of substances to be detected, in a more ecological and simpler way, as they are not organic solvents derived from petroleum. The splint is chosen because it is an everyday treatment, which is increasingly in demand, especially after the pandemic. It is subdivided into two types, depending on the method of manufacture: injected and printed (more ecofriendly).
The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of bruxism on Temporomanbular joint functionality and dysfunction severity in individuals with Temporomandibular Dysfunction (TMD).
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.
to measure strength of the deep anterior neck muscles with a new measurement protocol and by using the NOD device, a dynamometer, in subjects with and without bruxism, and compared to EMG on the superficial muscles of the anterior neck and the masseter muscle.
Bruxism is a multifaceted phenomenon that has been associated with several factors mediated by the central nervous system3. Bruxism is an umbrella term grouping different motor phenomenon. 'Bruxism is a repetitive jaw-muscle activity characterized by clenching or grinding of the teeth and/or by bracing or thrusting of the mandible. Bruxism has two distinct circadian manifestations: it can occur during sleep (indicated as sleep bruxism) or during wakefulness (indicated as awake bruxism5. Sleep bruxism is considered to be a putative exacerbating factor, rather than a causative factor of periodontal disease and night-guards have been used as a counter measure. Since the periodontium in sleep bruxism patients suffers from excessive occlusal force for long periods of time during sleep, the function of the periodontium in such patients may differ from that in patients without sleep bruxism. Awake bruxism is defined as masticatory muscle activity during wakefulness that is characterized by repetitive or sustained tooth contact and by bracing or thrusting of the mandible.Given the potential impact of abnormal forces on the periodontium, understanding the relationship between bruxism and periodontal disease is crucial for the prevention and management of these conditions. This study aims to explore the mechanisms by which bruxism affects the periodontium and to assess the impact of bruxism in the outcome of subgingival instrumentation for the management of Stage 2 and Stage 3 periodontitis.
Aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of botulinum toxin type A (Xeomin®) on patients complaining from bruxism. The study will be a one arm clinical trial. Twelve subjects reporting bruxism irresponsive to conventional treatment modalities will be recruited and will be injected with botulinum toxin A (Xeomin®) in both masseter and temporalis muscles. Pain levels, Electromyographic activity and maximum occlusal force will be recorded in the subjects before injection and at 1 and 3 months after injection to determine the effect of treatment
