Occlusal Sensitivity to Articulating Foils in Patients With Temporomandibular Disorders and Healthy Controls

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Using articulating foils of varying thickness, occlusal tactile acuity was compared between patients with chronic painful temporomandibular disorders (TMDp) and healthy controls. TMDp patients showed enhanced detection of thinner foils and greater perceptual sensitivity, accompanied by a more liberal decision strategy, whereas higher frequencies of ...

Scanner‐agnostic dynamic jaw motion generation from virtual static excursive records using open‐source Python‐based artificial intelligence (AI) interpolation

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract This technique describes a scanner‐agnostic digital workflow for generating dynamic mandibular motion from static virtual interocclusal records using a custom artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm and user interface. Virtual records of mandibular positions, including maximum intercuspation, protrusion, and lateral excursions, were captured ...

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.
