Reviewing the potential of hearables for the assessment of bruxism [PDF]
at - AutomatisierungstechnikAbstract Bruxism is a parafunctional oral behavior that affects a large percentage of the population. Bruxism is a risk factor for temporomandibular disorders. A gold standard is still lacking for assessing bruxism while awake, whereas for sleep bruxism, polysomnography with audio and video recording is the gold standard.

Age‐related hearing loss and “hearables”: An agenda for moral considerations
BioethicsAbstractRapid advances in digital hearing technologies, also known as hearables, are expected to disrupt the direct‐to‐consumer health market. For older adults with higher incidence of hearing loss, such disruption could reduce hearing problems, increase accessibility to hearing aids, and mitigate related stigmas.
