Mandibular movement during sleep bruxism associated with current tooth attrition

Journal of Prosthodontic Research, 2017
Observation of attrition patterns suggests that mandibular movement in sleep bruxism (SB) may be associated with current tooth attrition. The aim of this study was to confirm this phenomenon by investigating mandibular movement and masseter muscle activity. The subject was a healthy 21-year-old Japanese male.
