Electromyography Frequency Spectrum Is a Better Indicator of Sleep Bruxism Severity Related to Temporomandibular Disorder Pain Than Conventional Masticatory Muscle Activation and Bruxism Time Indices—A Pilot Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep bruxism (SB) has been reportedly associated with temporomandibular disorder (TMD); however, solid evidence is lacking. Previous studies have primarily used traditional metrics, such as the masticatory muscle activity (MMA) index and bruxism time index (BTI) to investigate the link between SB and TMD.

Three‐Dimensional Assessment of Upper Airway Morphology and Sleep‐Disordered Breathing Risk in Unilateral Craniofacial Microsomia: A Pilot Study

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Unilateral craniofacial microsomia (UCM) presents varying unilateral deficiencies of the temporomandibular joint, mandibular ramus, masticatory muscles, and adjacent soft tissues and ear. Reduced mandibular and maxillary dimensions may decrease upper airway volume and may increase the risk of sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB).
