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

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.

Efficacy of Local Treatment in Patients With Rheumatic Diseases Affecting the Temporomandibular Joint—A Systematic Review

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This systematic review found limited evidence for local treatments of temporomandibular joint involvement in rheumatic inflammatory arthropathies (RIA). Based on 33 studies with moderate to high risk of bias, patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) showed better outcomes after total joint replacement than other RIA patients in terms of mouth ...

Associations Between Wake‐Time and Sleep‐Time Masticatory Muscle Activity and Clinical Correlates in Free‐Living Adults

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Objective wearable EMG revealed partial within‐individual coupling between wake‐ and sleep‐time masticatory muscle activity. Tooth wear and self‐reported oral behaviours did not reflect current muscle activity, supporting assessment across behavioural states rather than reliance on proxy measures alone.

Grading the intensity of nondental orofacial pain: Identification of cutoff points for mild, moderate, and severe pain [PDF]

, 2015
Background: When assessing pain in clinical practice, clinicians often label pain as mild, moderate, and severe. However, these categories are not distinctly defined, and are often used arbitrarily.

The Impact of Injury Severity, Sex, and Nociceptor Activity on Post‐Traumatic Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis in Mice

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Repeated TMJ injury in mice demonstrated that greater injury severity and female sex exacerbate post‐traumatic TMJ degeneration. While short‐term nociceptor inhibition reduced pain without affecting degeneration, prolonged inhibition modestly attenuated degeneration, suggesting that persistent post‐traumatic pain contributes to TMJ osteoarthritis ...
