The Effect of Different Mandibular Advancement Devices on Sleep Parameters in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Obstructive sleep apnea arises from repeated upper airway collapse during sleep, causing apnea events. Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) treat this by advancing the mandible to open the airway. Three device types—conventionally manufactured (Mundgleiter) and CAD/CAM‐manufactured (OPTISLEEP, Narval CC)—were compared, with an average mandibular ...

Biofeedback‐Based Therapy in Patients With Myofascial Orofacial Pain and Bruxism: An Umbrella Review

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This umbrella review of 11 systematic reviews found that biofeedback may reduce masticatory muscle activity, but its effects on myofascial orofacial pain and bruxism remain uncertain. Methodological limitations, heterogeneous protocols, and predominantly low‐quality evidence underscore the need for rigorous, standardized clinical trials.

Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy for Feeding and Swallowing in Children From Four to 12 Years: What Does the Evidence Show? A Systematic Review

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This systematic review evaluated the effectiveness of orofacial myofunctional therapy (OMT) for improving feeding and swallowing outcomes in children aged 4–12 years. Searches of four databases identified 17 studies, all reporting positive feeding and/or swallowing outcomes, including improved eating and swallowing skills, orofacial muscle function and

Association Between Oral Health and Chewing Ability Among Independent Older Adults

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This study examined the relationship between oral health, including denture use, and chewing ability among older adults. Preserving natural teeth and maintaining occlusion in the premolar and molar regions are important for sustaining adequate chewing ability.

Mastication‐Induced Brain Blood Flow Changes Before and After Surgical‐Orthodontic Treatment in Skeletal Class III Patients: A Pilot Longitudinal Study

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In 22 patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion, chewing‐induced brain blood flow (BBF) was measured before and after surgical‐orthodontic treatment. Patients with low pre‐treatment BBF tended toward an increase post‐treatment (+3.4%), while those with high pre‐treatment BBF tended toward a decrease (−16.4%), indicating pre‐treatment BBF as a ...

Effects of Clenching Intensity and Duration on Pressure Pain Threshold and Masseter‐Muscle Stiffness Under Standardised EMG‐Based Contraction Exposure

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Under equivalent prescribed EMG‐based contraction exposure, pressure pain threshold was modestly but significantly lower immediately after low‐intensity, long‐duration clenching than after high‐intensity, short‐duration clenching, whereas the latter induced a transient reduction in masseter‐muscle stiffness.
