Examining the Influence of Glycemic Management During Sleep on Sleep‐Related Bruxism: A Pilot Study

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Stabilisation of blood glucose levels during sleep may improve sleep‐related bruxism (SRB), particularly by suppressing sympathetic nervous system activity. Furthermore, it is expected that these findings will lead to the establishment of new treatment methods for SRB in sleep dentistry.

Correlation Between the New Bite Force Meter and GC Dental Prescale II

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This study evaluated a new one‐sided bite force meter (OBM‐01). In healthy and older adults, the device showed good reliability and moderate correlation with Dental Prescale II measurements. Habitual chewing side bite force was significantly higher, suggesting OBM‐01 may be useful for assessing oral function in clinical settings.

Comorbid Insomnia and Sleep‐Disordered Breathing in Painful Temporomandibular Disorders: Association With Pain Intensity

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In 50 adults with chronic TMD pain, insomnia alone and COMISA showed similar pain intensity and subjective sleep complaints. However, COMISA was characterised by greater pain frequency, predominant morning pain and marked nocturnal hypoxemia. Sleep quality and oxygen saturation were associated with pain intensity only in COMISA, indicating that sleep ...

Clear Aligners and Bruxism: A Systematic Review

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This study aimed to systematically evaluate the relationship between clear aligner therapy and bruxism, including both sleep and awake bruxism, to determine whether aligners act as a neutral factor, protective agent, or risk factor. The findings indicate that no definitive conclusion can be drawn, as the current evidence is limited and contradictory ...
