Active clinical trials for "Sleep Bruxism"

The aim of the study was to assess and compare the relationship between jaw function, neck disability, sleep quality, fatigue, and headache in patients with myofascial Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) with Sleep Bruxism (SB) and without (non-SB).

Background. Bruxism is an involuntary, non-functional activity of the masticatory system, and is frequently seen in childhood. Bruxism has many aetiologies, like malocclusion, psychological factors, allergies and gastrointestinal disorders. Aim. To investigate the relationship between Enterobius vermicularis infection and bruxism in children.

This cross-sectional study will evaluate the association between sociodemographic, occupational, clinical conditions, psychological (sense of coherence), sleep quality variables and SB diagnosed by PSG, the gold standard exam with audio-visual resources obtained at Pelotas Sleep Institute.

Excessive mechanical forces can cause complications of dental implants and their suprastructures (crowns and bridges), and can possibly be destructive for the bone and soft tissues around the implants. Sleep bruxism (grinding and clenching of the teeth during sleep) is considered as an important source of mechanical forces in the oral environment. Therefore, in this study, the investigators will investigate whether sleep bruxism is associated with implant and peri-implant complications.

This case-control study will evaluates the association between the definitive sleep bruxism diagnosis by gold-standard polysomnography examination obtained at Pelotas Sleep Institute and the sociodemographic, occupational, clinical conditions, sleep quality, sleep structure and Epworth sleepiness scale variables.

Evaluate the correlation among the diagnostics of sleep bruxism and sleep quality obtained from the use of smartphone application (APP-Sleep Cycle®), PSG and questionnaires (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index-IQSP and Johansson).
