Association Between Tooth Eruption and Parent‐Reported Awake Bruxism in Early Childhood
Graphical abstract illustrating the relationship between tooth eruption and parent‐reported awake bruxism in early childhood. ABSTRACT Background Mandibular instability during primary tooth eruption has been suggested as a factor associated with parent‐reported awake bruxism (PRAB) in early childhood, but this relationship remains unclear. Objective To

ABSTRACT Background Bruxism is a parafunctional activity characterised by teeth grinding or clenching, often associated with stress and neurophysiological factors. Its aetiology is multifactorial, with recent studies emphasising neurotransmitters and hormonal imbalances, particularly melatonin and cortisol. This study assesses masseter muscle thickness

Association Between Cardiovascular Autonomic Function and Temporomandibular Disorders
ABSTRACT Background Studies have shown that elevated stress levels associate with TMD‐related pain, which suggests that alterations in autonomic tone may contribute to this pain condition. Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate the sex‐specific associations between autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity and TMD pain‐related diagnoses in a ...

Social Media Use and Jaw Motor Activity: Insights From Electromyography and Self‐Report Data
Self‐reported social media use is positively associated with the frequency of oral behaviours. However, in a controlled laboratory setting, social media exposure was linked to increased self‐reported stress and anxiety, though no significant changes in jaw muscle activity were observed across tasks.

Interplay of Psychosocial, Clinical and Modulation Mechanisms in Chronic TMD‐Related Disability
Principal components associated with chronic TMD‐related disability. A multivariate model using principal component analysis and logistic regression identified five key components—psychosocial, clinical pain, duration and extent of pain, pain modulation, and sensory function—that interact to influence functional disability in individuals with muscular ...

This study examined how different occlusal support patterns affect oral function and quality of life in right‐handed elderly denture wearers. Reduced function was most notable in the right distal extension group. Despite asymmetry, the preferred chewing side remained consistent, especially when bilateral support was maintained.

This study investigates the criterion validity of the Isometric Contraction Test (ICTest) for the diagnosis of Axis I DC/TMD, with a focus on specific masticatory muscles. The test yielded higher diagnostic accuracy for the masseter and temporalis muscles compared to the medial pterygoid, particularly when assessing the referred myofascial pain subtype.
