Effect of the Intervention "Food, Fun and Family" on Sleep Bruxism in Children

Sleep BruxismChildhood

Excess consumption of refined sugar and increased use of recreational screen time are risk factors for alterations in the quality of life that have been associated with sleep bruxism in children and that compromise the same mechanisms of alteration of the reward system in the brain. Therefore, the question of this research is: What is the effect of the Intervention "Food, Fun and Family (FFF)" on the frequency of sleep bruxism in children? The general objective of the research is to evaluate the effect of the Intervention "Food, Fun and Family (FFF)" on the frequency of sleep bruxism in 84 children who attend the pediatric dentistry postgraduate clinic of the CES University and the private consultation Dr. Claudia Restrepo and Dr. Adriana Santamaría. The frequency of sleep bruxism will be evaluated with the translated and validated Spanish version of the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ), which will be answered by the parents. The consumption of added sugar will be evaluated with the version translated into Spanish of the Health Behavior in School-Aged Children - Food-Frequency Questionnaire (HBSC-FFQ). The time on screens will be recorded through the parents' report, of the time in hours that the child spends using electronic media in a recreational way each weekday for a week and each weekend day for a week. A decrease in the frequency of sleep bruxism is expected to be found by reducing sugar consumption and screen time in the children evaluated. The results of this study will be presented at the IADR, ACFO, ACOP and CES University research meetings and will be published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal in category Q1.

Evaluation of Intravascular Irradiation of Blood in Children With Sleep Bruxism

Sleep BruxismSleep Bruxism1 more

Background: The objective of this study will be to evaluate the effect of Intravascular Irradiation of Blood (ILIB) combined with myofunctional exercises for sleep bruxism in pediatrics. Methods: This study will be a randomized controlled clinical trial. A triage of individuals between 4 and 17 years old with a diagnosis of sleep bruxism will be carried out at the clinic of the Catholic University of Uruguay, and in a private office referred by different private care centers. The selected participants will be evaluated before and after treatment by means of questionnaires on bruxism, sleep quality and nocturnal oxygen saturation measurement. For this, 46 patients with sleep bruxism will be recruited, who will be divided into 2 groups: control group (CG), which will undergo an application of placebo ILIB and an orofacial myofunctional therapy (MFT) exercise protocol; and na ILIB group, which will carry out an active application of ILIB and an exercise protocol, this being once a week for 8 weeks. The laser treatment (808 nm) will be performed twice a week for 8 weeks. The values will be tested for normality by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. For the comparison between the groups, T-test will be carried out, considering a level of significance of 0.5% (p<0.05). Discussion: Although local photobiomodulation (PBM), acupuncture PBM and physiotherapy have been studied in the treatment of bruxism, this is the first study to evaluate the effect of ILIB combined with myofunctional exercises for sleep bruxism in pediatrics.

Impact of Bruxism Related Arousals on Cardiovascular Risk in Co-morbid Insomnia and Sleep Apnea...

Sleep ApneaSleep Bruxism4 more

Sleep disordered breathing is a common and serious health problem. According to epidemiological data, it may affect about 20% of adult population. The majority is not aware of the disease. The most common sleep disorder is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The essence of OSA are the episodes of airway obstruction repeated many times during sleep, as a result of which the level of partial oxygen in the blood decreases. Apnea episodes end up waking from sleep, causing sleep fragmentation, deep sleep and REM deficiency. Frequent complications of OSA are hypertension, stroke, cardiac arrhythmia, coronary artery disease and pulmonary hypertension. Comorbid Insomnia and Sleep Apnea (COMISA) is a highly prevalent and debilitating disorder that causes additional disturbances in sleep, daytime functioning, and quality of life for patients, and is a significant diagnostic and therapeutic problem for clinicians. Although the presence of COMISA was first noticed by Christian Guilleminault and his colleagues in 1973, it received very little research attention for almost three decades. There is still lack ofclinical trials concerning this topic. An additional problem in apnea patients is the increased incidence of bruxism. Bruxism is associated with increased masticatory muscle activity during sleep, which may be phased or tonic. It is estimated that the incidence of bruxism in the adult population is 13%. The most common symptoms of bruxism include: pathological wear and tooth sensitivity, damage to the periodontium and oral mucosa, muscle pain in the stomatognathic system, headaches and damage to prosthetic restorations. However, the symptoms of bruxism can go unnoticed for a long time, leaving patients often unaware of the problem. The aim of this project is: to determine the prevalence of sleep bruxism in COMISA, OSA and insomnia, to examine of arousals (type, frequency) in COMISA, OSA and insomnia, to investigate the relationship between arousals and blood pressure values and variability, arrhythmias, sinus rhythm variability, vascular endothelial dysfunction, cardiovascular risk in COMISA, OSA and insomnia.

Relationship Between Selected Parameters and Bruxism

Sleep BruxismSleep Disorder5 more

Bruxism is a common phenomenon. It is estimated that its prevalence in the adult population is 8-31%. Bruxism occurring during sleep is the activity of the masticatory muscles that appear during sleep, which can be rhythmic or phased and is not a movement disorder or sleep disorder in healthy people. It is currently believed that bruxism should not be considered a disorder. In healthy people, it is treated rather as behavior, which may be a risk factor for pathological clinical implications or a protective factor in the presence of other disease entities. The most common symptoms of bruxism include: pathological wear and tooth sensitivity, periodontal and oral mucosa damage, myalgia in the stomatognathic system, headache and prosthetic restoration damage. However, due to nocturnal occurrence, bruxism symptoms may go unnoticed for a long time, which means that patients are often unaware of this behavior. The etiology of bruxism is multifactorial and not fully understood. It is currently believed that it can be caused by genetic, psychological and exogenous factors. Due to the unclear etiology of bruxism, it is so important to conduct research that allows making a certain diagnosis and finding the causes of this phenomenon

Selected Disorders and Sleep Bruxism

Sleep BruxismHypertension7 more

Sleep apnea is a common and serious health problem in the Polish population. According to epidemiological data problem concerns about 7% of the adult population. The most common sleep disorder is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The consequence of episodes of airway obstruction and sleep fragmentation is an inefficient sleep, pathological daytime sleepiness, falling asleep involuntarily, awakening with feelings of shortness of breath or throttling. The direct consequences of sleep apnea are hypoxia, increased heart rate and increased blood pressure. Frequent complications of OSA are hypertension, stroke, cardiac arrhythmia, coronary artery disease and pulmonary hypertension. An additional problem in patients with sleep apnea is an increased incidence of bruxism. Bruxism is a common problem; reports of prevalence range from 8-31% in the general population. The most common symptoms of bruxism include: hypersensitive teeth, tooth wear, damage to dental restorations (e.g. crowns and fillings), damage to periodontal and oral mucosa, masticatory muscle pain and headaches. The etiology of bruxism is multifactorial and not fully understood. It can be caused by biologic, psychologic and exogenous factors. Arousals during the apnea episodes are considered to be a major cause of sleep bruxism in OSA patients. The relationship between OSA and sleep bruxism is still not clearly defined. Further research is needed to help explain the relationship between these two phenomena, which will enable further therapy in patients with coexisting OSA and sleep bruxism (SB).
