Abstract
BACKGROUND Electromyographic activity (EMG) of masticatory muscles during wakefulness is understudied. It is unclear if single channel ambulatory EMG devices are sensitive enough to detect masticatory muscle activity (MMA) during wakefulness. OBJECTIVES To compare the MMA of various oral tasks recorded with a single channel EMG device ((Grindcare4-datalogger Prototype device) (GC4-β)) and a conventional EMG (cEMG) device. METHODS EMG activity of 30 standardised oral tasks was recorded unilaterally from the masseter and anterior temporalis muscle in 24 healthy volunteers using GC4-β and a cEMG device. To compare the EMG data, signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) were calculated as a way to normalise EMG activity across tasks. Analysis of variance was used to compare the SNR between the devices, muscles and oral tasks. RESULTS SNR measured from GC4-β was overall significantly higher than the cEMG device (p =.001). The SNR for maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) was significantly higher than all other tasks (p <.001). SNR for temporalis with GC4-β was significantly higher for MVC, hard food, soft food, gum chewing (dominant side), rhythmic clenching and upper lip biting compared to the cEMG device (p <.021). The SNR for masseter with GC4-β was significantly higher for hard food and gum chewing (dominant side), rhythmic clenching, rhythmic biting of an object and yawning compared to the cEMG device (p <.022). CONCLUSIONS This study provides novel insight into the EMG patterns of numerous oral tasks enhancing knowledge of physiological differences between the masticatory muscles. Further, single channel EMG devices can effectively measure the EMG activity of various oral tasks during wakefulness.

A case-control study on the effect of rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) clusters on sleep fragmentation and severity of orofacial muscle pain in sleep bruxism. J Sleep Res 2024; 33:e14072. [PMID: 37859534 DOI: 10.1111/jsr.14072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/02/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023]
Abstract
Rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) is a periodic muscle activity that characterises sleep bruxism (SB) events. These can occur as a single event, in pairs, or in clusters. Since RMMA episodes often occur in clusters and the relevance of this occurrence is unknown, we conducted a study to investigate the effect of RMMA clusters on sleep fragmentation and the severity of orofacial muscle pain. This study involved a secondary analysis using data from 184 adult subjects with orofacial muscle pain who underwent definitive polysomnography (PSG) for sleep bruxism diagnosis. Self-reported orofacial muscle pain (OFMP) was assessed using the numeric rating scale, and additional evaluation of side-to-side equivalence (symmetry) was described using a binary system. Among the 184 participants, 60.8% (n = 112) did not exhibit clusters and among the 72 participants with clusters, 36.1% (n = 26) and 63.9% (n = 46) were in the high and low RMMA frequency groups, respectively. The high SB group had significantly three times more phasic RMMA events than the noncluster group. A total of 89.67% (n = 165) of subjects reported orofacial muscle pain. While there was no difference in the severity of OFMP among groups, a significant decrease in symmetry between the severity of temporal muscle pain on the left and right sides was noted in the cluster group compared with the noncluster group. Clustering of RMMA events is associated with sleep fragmentation. The asymmetry of temporal muscle pain is related to the presence of RMMA clusters in sleep bruxism.

Kim SB, Choi YJ, Kim ST, Kim HJ. Comparison between botulinum toxin type A injection on masseter muscle only and additional injection on anterior belly of digastric muscle in sleep bruxism patients: A clinical trial. J Oral Rehabil 2024. [PMID: 39030872 DOI: 10.1111/joor.13800] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 02/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/22/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate the effects on bite force and muscle thickness of the botulinum toxin (BoNT) injection for patients with sleep bruxism (SB) by comparing injections into the masseter muscle only and both the masseter and the anterior belly of the digastric muscle (ABDM) in a clinical trial. METHODS Twelve SB patients received BoNT-A injections using US-guided techniques into the masseter muscle only (Group A), while the remaining 12 SB patients received injections into both the masseter and ABDM (Group B). Bite force and muscle thickness were measured before injection, as well as 1 and 2 months after injection. RESULTS The bite force and masseter muscle thickness decreased in both Group A and Group B before injection, and at 1 and 2 months after injection. However, there was no significant difference (p > .05, repeated measures analysis of variance) between the two groups, and there was also no significant difference in ABDM thickness (p > .05, repeated measures analysis of variance). CONCLUSION This study is the first to assess the short-term effects of BoNT injected into ABDM for SB control. Results show no influence on SB reduction, suggesting the need for further research on BoNT's effectiveness in controlling intense ABDM contractions during sleep and assessing suprahyoid muscle potential impact on rhythmic masticatory muscle activity occurrence.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The co-occurrence of bruxism, temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), and headache is common in patients. However, there is conflicting evidence regarding whether this association is simply a result of their high prevalence or whether there are indeed causal relationships. This review provides an overview of the current state of research while taking into account the controversies surrounding research methods, particularly in definitions and diagnostic standards. Bruxism-defined as repetitive jaw muscle activity during sleep or wakefulness-is not a painful disorder but may-particularly in co-occurrence with TMD-worsen pre-existing headache. It seems important to differentiate between sleep and awake bruxism because of different impact on pathophysiological processes in different primary headache disorders such as migraine and tension-type headache. Temporomandibular disorder is a heterogenous entity with both myofascial and arthrogenous types of pain in addition to nonpainful disorders. Research suggests a correlation between TMD pain and migraine, as well as between awake bruxism and tension-type headache. However, psychosocial factors may act as confounders in these relationships. Determining causality is challenging because of the limited number of experimental and clinical studies conducted on this topic. The main finding is an apparent lack of consensus on the definition and assessment criteria for bruxism. Treatment wise, it is important to differentiate all 3 conditions because treatment of one condition may have an effect on the other 2 without proving causality. For future research, it is crucial to establish greater consistency and applicability in diagnostic procedures and definitions. In addition, more experimental and clinical studies investigating the question of causality are needed.

Instrumental assessment of sleep bruxism: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Sleep Med Rev 2024; 74:101906.

Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis (MA) aimed to evaluate the diagnostic validity of portable electromyography (EMG) diagnostic devices compared to the reference standard method polysomnography (PSG) in assessing sleep bruxism. This systematic review was completed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) statement and was registered with PROSPERO prior to the accomplishment of the main search. Ten clinical studies on humans, assessing the diagnostic accuracy of portable instrumental approaches with respect to PSG, were included in the review. Methodological shortcomings were identified by QUADAS-2 quality assessment. The certainty of the evidence analysis was established by different levels of evidence according to the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) framework. A meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy was performed with multiple thresholds per study applying a two-stage random effects model, using the thresholds offered by the studies and based on the number of EMG bruxism events per hour presented by the participants. Five studies were included. The MA indicated that portable EMG diagnostic devices showed a very good diagnostic capacity, although a high variability is evident in the studies with some outliers. Very low quality of evidence due to high risk of bias and high heterogeneity among included studies suggests that portable devices have shown high sensitivity and specificity when diagnosing sleep bruxism (SB) compared to polysomnography. The tests performed in the MA found an estimated optimal cut-off point of 7 events/hour of SB with acceptably high sensitivity and specificity for the EMG portable devices.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To estimate the statistical and epidemiological association between Sleep bruxism (SB) and Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) based on OSA severity, and to describe sleep data findings within the analyzed population. METHODS A case-control study (N = 37) was conducted on subjects with and without OSA. All subjects underwent a full-night polysomnographic recording at the Sleep Unit (Clinical Neurophysiology Department) of San Carlos University Hospital. The diagnosis and severity of OSA were determined using ICSD-3 and AASM-2.6 scoring. The definitive SB diagnosis was obtained through a self-report test, physical examination, and PSG recordings. Variables used to study the association between both conditions included the apnea and hypopnea episodes, the Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), the number of SB episodes per night, and the bruxism index. Chi2, correlations, and ANOVA were calculated. The epidemiological association was calculated using the OR. RESULTS SB showed an epidemiological association with OSA, with an OR of 0.15 (0.036-0.68), suggesting it could be considered a protective factor (p < 0.05). OSA patients presented fewer average SB episodes (6.8 ± 12.31) than non-OSA patients (25.08 ± 31.68). SB episodes correlated negatively (p < 0.05) with the AHI and the number of hypopneas (p < 0.05). The average number of SB episodes was significantly higher in patients with mild OSA compared to those with severe OSA. CONCLUSIONS In this sample of patients with subclinical and mild OSA, SB may act as a protective factor. However, confirmation of these results with a larger sample size is necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep bruxism (SB), an oral behaviour in otherwise healthy individuals, is characterised by frequent rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) during sleep. RMMA/SB episodes occur over various sleep stages (N1-N3 and rapid eye movement (REM)), sleep cycles (non-REM to REM), and frequently with microarousals. It currently remains unclear whether these characteristics of sleep architecture are phenotype candidates for the genesis of RMMA/SB. OBJECTIVES This narrative review investigated the relationship between sleep architecture and the occurrence of RMMA as a SB phenotype candidate. METHODS PubMed research was performed using keywords related to RMMA/SB and sleep architecture. RESULTS In non-SB and SB healthy individuals, RMMA episodes were most frequent in the light non-REM sleep stages N1 and N2, particularly during the ascending phase of sleep cycles. The onset of RMMA/SB episodes in healthy individuals was preceded by a physiological arousal sequence of autonomic cardiovascular to cortical activation. It was not possible to extract a consistent sleep architecture pattern in the presence of sleep comorbidities. The lack of standardisation and variability between subject complexified the search for specific sleep architecture phenotype(s). CONCLUSION In otherwise healthy individuals, the genesis of RMMA/SB episodes is largely affected by oscillations in the sleep stage and cycle as well as the occurrence of microarousal. Furthermore, a specific sleep architecture pattern cannot be confirmed in the presence of sleep comorbidity. Further studies are needed to delineate sleep architecture phenotype candidate(s) that contribute to the more accurate diagnosis of SB and treatment approaches using standardised and innovative methodologies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep bruxism (SB) occurring during No-REM (nREM) sleep and increase in microarousals per hour have been described in adults, but not in children. OBJECTIVE To assess the correlation between sleep architecture and masseter muscle activity related to sleep bruxism (SB/MMA) in children. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-three children aged 7-12 years (mean age: 9.4 ± 1.3) with confirmed SB underwent a two-night polysomnographic (PSG) study in a sleep laboratory, for accommodation (first night) and data collection (second night). Data on sleep architecture (total sleep duration (TSD), sleep efficiency (SE), sleep onset latency (SOL), REM and nREM sleep duration and proportion and microarousals/hour during REM and nREM sleep) and episodes/hour of SB/MMA were recorded. Single and multiple-variable linear regression analyses were performed to assess the correlation between data on sleep architecture (predictors) and SB/MMA (dependent variable). RESULTS Shorter TSD, REM and nREM stage 1 sleep duration, longer SOL and more microarousals/hour during REM and nREM sleep were found to be positive predictors of SB/MMA in children in the multiple-variable regression analysis (R2 = 0.511). CONCLUSION Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that SB/MMA is correlated with altered sleep architecture in children (shorter total sleep duration (TSD), shorter nREM and REM sleep and higher microarousals during REM and nREM sleep). Nevertheless, the clinical significance of these findings need to be demonstrated in future studies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bruxism is defined as a repetitive masticatory muscle activity that can manifest it upon awakening (awake bruxism-AB) or during sleep (sleep bruxism-SB). Some forms of both, AB and SB can be associated to many other coexistent factors, considered of risk for the initiation and maintenance of the bruxism. Although controversial, the term 'secondary bruxism' has frequently been used to label these cases. The absence of an adequate definition of bruxism, the non-distinction between the circadian manifestations and the report of many different measurement techniques, however, are important factors to be considered when judging the literature findings. The use (and abuse) of drugs, caffeine, nicotine, alcohol and psychoactive substances, the presence of respiratory disorders during sleep, gastroesophageal reflux disorders and movement, neurological and psychiatric disorders are among these factors. The scarcity of controlled studies and the complexity and interactions among all aforementioned factors, unfortunately, does not allow to establish any causality or temporal association with SB and AB. The supposition that variables are related depends on different parameters, not clearly demonstrated in the available studies. OBJECTIVES This narrative review aims at providing oral health care professionals with an update on the co-risk factors and disorders possibly associated with bruxism. In addition, the authors discuss the appropriateness of the term 'secondary bruxism' as a valid diagnostic category based on the available evidence. CONCLUSION The absence of an adequate definition of bruxism, the non-distinction between the circadian manifestations and the report of many different measurement techniques found in many studies preclude any solid and convincing conclusion on the existence of the 'secondary' bruxism.

[PMID: 37282351 DOI: 10.1111/joor.13532] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2022] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a highly prevalent problem with significant consequences. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and oral mandibular advancement device (MAD) are considered the standard treatments for OSA. Patients may experience self-reported oral moistening disorders (OMDs) (i.e. xerostomia or drooling) at the beginning, throughout and after treatment. This affects oral health, quality of life and treatment effectiveness. The exact nature of the associations between OSA and self-reported OMD is still unknown. We aimed to provide an overview of the associations between self-reported OMD on the one hand and OSA and its treatment (namely CPAP and MAD) on the other hand. In addition, we sought to determine whether OMD affects treatment adherence. MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature search in PubMed was performed up to 27 September 2022. Two researchers independently assessed studies for eligibility. RESULTS In total, 48 studies were included. Thirteen papers investigated the association between OSA and self-reported OMD. They all suggested an association between OSA and xerostomia but not between OSA and drooling. The association between CPAP and OMD was addressed in 20 articles. The majority of studies have indicated xerostomia as a CPAP side effect; however, some have observed that xerostomia diminishes with CPAP therapy. In 15 papers, the association between MAD and OMD was investigated. In most publications, both xerostomia and drooling have been described as common side effects of MADs. These side effects are often mild and transient, and they improve as patients continue to use their appliance. Most studies found that these OMDs do not cause or are not a strong predictor of non-compliance. CONCLUSION Xerostomia is a common side effect of CPAP and MAD, as well as a significant symptom of OSA. It may be regarded as one of the indicators of sleep apnoea. Moreover, MAD therapy can be associated with OMD. However, it seems that OMD may be mitigated by being adherent to the therapy.

Reciprocal first night effect on rhythmic and non-rhythmic oromotor episodes in moderate to severe primary sleep bruxism: A retrospective physiological study. J Oral Rehabil 2024; 51:131-142.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep on the first night in a sleep laboratory is characterized by a lower sleep quality and frequency of rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) than that on the second night in moderate to severe sleep bruxism (SB) patients. OBJECTIVE The aims of this study was to clarify the physiological factors contributing to the first night effect on oromotor activity during sleep and investigate whether physiological factors involved in the first night effect differed between rhythmic and non-rhythmic oromotor activities. METHODS Polysomnographic data collected on two consecutive nights from 15 moderate to severe SB subjects (F 7: M 8; age: 23.2 ± 1.3 [mean ± SD] years) were retrospectively analysed. Sleep variables, RMMA and non-specific masticatory muscle activity (NSMA) were scored in relation to episode types (i.e. phasic or tonic and cluster or isolated), sleep architecture and transient arousals. The relationships between nightly differences in oromotor and sleep variables were assessed. The distribution of oromotor events, arousals, cortical electroencephalographic power, RR intervals and heart rate variability were examined in relation to sleep cycle changes. These variables were compared between the first and second nights and between RMMA and NSMA. RESULTS Sleep variables showed a lower sleep quality on Night 1 than on Night 2. In comparisons with Night 1, the RMMA index increased by 18.8% (p < .001, the Wilcoxon signed-rank test) on Night 2, while the NSMA index decreased by 17.9% (p = .041). Changes in the RMMA index did not correlate with those in sleep variables, while changes in the NSMA index correlated with those in arousal-related variables (p < .001, Spearman's rank correlation). An increase in the RMMA index on Night 2 was found for the cluster type and stage N1 related to sleep cyclic fluctuations in cortical and cardiac activities. In contrast, the decrease in the NSMA index was associated with increases in the isolated type and the occurrence of stage N2 and wakefulness regardless of the sleep cycle. CONCLUSION Discrepancies in first night effect on the occurrence of RMMA and NSMA represent unique sleep-related processes in the genesis of oromotor phenotypes in SB subjects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to examine the pathophysiology underlying sleep apnea (SA). BACKGROUND We consider several critical features of SA including the roles played by the ascending reticular activating system (ARAS) that controls vegetative functions and electroencephalographic findings associated with both SA and normal sleep. We evaluate this knowledge together with our current understanding of the anatomy, histology, and physiology of the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus (MTN) and mechanisms that contribute directly to normal and disordered sleep. MTN neurons express γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors which activate them (make chlorine come out of the cells) and that can be activated by GABA released from the hypothalamic preoptic area. METHOD We reviewed the published literature focused on sleep apnea (SA) reported in Google Scholar, Scopus, and PubMed databases. RESULTS The MTN neurons respond to the hypothalamic GABA release by releasing glutamate that activates neurons in the ARAS. Based on these findings, we conclude that a dysfunctional MTN may be incapable of activating neurons in the ARAS, notably those in the parabrachial nucleus, and that this will ultimately lead to SA. Despite its name, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is not caused by an airway obstruction that prevents breathing. CONCLUSIONS While obstruction may contribute to the overall pathology, the primary factor involved in this scenario is the lack of neurotransmitters.

Diagnostic Accuracy of a Portable Electromyography and Electrocardiography Device to Measure Sleep Bruxism in a Sleep Apnea Population: A Comparative Study. Clocks Sleep 2023; 5:717-733. [PMID: 37987398 PMCID: PMC10660473 DOI: 10.3390/clockssleep5040047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The gold standard for diagnosing sleep bruxism (SB) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is polysomnography (PSG). However, a final hypermotor muscle activity often occurs after apnea episodes, which can confuse the diagnosis of SB when using portable electromyography (EMG) devices. This study aimed to compare the number of SB episodes obtained from PSG with manual analysis by a sleep expert, and from a manual and automatic analysis of an EMG and electrocardiography (EKG) device, in a population with suspected OSA. METHODS Twenty-two subjects underwent a polysomnographic study with simultaneous recording with the EMG-EKG device. SB episodes and SB index measured with both tools and analyzed manually and automatically were compared. Masticatory muscle activity was scored according to published criteria. Patients were segmented by severity of OSA (mild, moderate, severe) following the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) criteria. ANOVA and the Bland-Altman plot were used to quantify the agreement between both methods. The concordance was calculated through the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS On average, the total events of SB per night in the PSG study were (8.41 ± 0.85), lower than the one obtained with EMG-EKG manual (14.64 ± 0.76) and automatic (22.68 ± 16.02) analysis. The mean number of SB episodes decreases from the non-OSA group to the OSA group with both PSG (5.93 ± 8.64) and EMG-EKG analyses (automatic = 22.47 ± 18.07, manual = 13.93 ± 11.08). However, this decrease was minor in proportion compared to the automatic EMG-EKG analysis mode (from 23.14 to 22.47). The ICC based on the number of SB episodes in the segmented sample by severity degree of OSA along the three tools shows a moderate correlation in the non-OSA (0.61) and mild OSA (0.53) groups. However, it is poorly correlated in the moderate (0.24) and severe (0.23) OSA groups: the EMG-EKG automatic analysis measures 14.27 units more than PSG. The results of the manual EMG-EKG analysis improved this correlation but are not good enough. CONCLUSIONS The results obtained in the PSG manual analysis and those obtained by the EMG-EKG device with automatic and manual analysis for the diagnosis of SB are acceptable but only in patients without OSA or with mild OSA. In patients with moderate or severe OSA, SB diagnosis with portable electromyography devices can be confused due to apneas, and further study is needed to investigate this.

Abstract
Botulinum toxin (BTA) is a bacterial-derived extract that can inhibit muscle contraction, acting directly on the absorption of acetylcholine. Thanks to this property, botulinum has been used in aesthetic and general medicine for several years. Nowadays, the use of botulinum toxin is being deepened to address the problem of bruxism. In this scoping review, the results of the studies in the literature of the last 10 years were analyzed. Indeed, 12 reports (found on PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus, entering the keywords "BRUXISM" and "BOTULINUM TOXIN") were deemed eligible for inclusion in this review. In the studies reviewed, BTA was injected into different muscle groups: masseters, masseter and temporalis or masseter, temporalis, and medial pterygoid. Botulinum toxin injection is a viable therapeutic solution, especially in patients with poor compliance or without improvement in conventional treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to clarify frequency distribution of number and peak amplitude of electromyographic (EMG) waveforms of sleep bruxism (SB) in outpatients with clinical diagnosis of SB (probable bruxer: P-bruxer). METHODS Subjects were 40 P-bruxers. Masseteric EMG during sleep was measured at home using a wearable EMG system. EMG waveforms with amplitude of more than two times the baseline and with duration of 0.25 s were extracted as SB bursts. Clusters of bursts, i.e. SB episodes, were also scored. RESULTS There were large variations among the subjects in numbers of SB bursts and episodes and in burst peak amplitude. As for burst peak amplitude within a subject, a wide right-tailed frequency distribution was shown with the highest frequency at the class of 5-10% maximum voluntary contraction. CONCLUSION The number and amplitude of SB waveforms for P-bruxers were distributed over a wide range, indicating the existence of large individual differences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep bruxism (SB) is a common sleep disorder that affects approximately 20% of children and 10% of adults. It may cause orodental problems, such as tooth wear, jaw pain, and temporal headaches. However, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying SB remain largely unknown, and a definitive treatment has not yet been established. HIGHLIGHT Human studies involving polysomnography have shown that rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) is more frequent in otherwise healthy individuals with SB than in normal individuals. RMMA occurs during light non-rapid eye movement (non-REM) sleep in association with transient arousals and cyclic sleep processes. To further elucidate the neurophysiological mechanisms of SB, jaw motor activities have been investigated in naturally sleeping animals. These animals exhibit various contractions of masticatory muscles, including episodes of rhythmic and repetitive masticatory muscle bursts that occurred during non-REM sleep in association with cortical and cardiac activation, similar to those found in humans. Electrical microstimulation of corticobulbar tracts may also induce rhythmic masticatory muscle contractions during non-REM sleep, suggesting that the masticatory motor system is activated during non-REM sleep via excitatory inputs to the masticatory central pattern generator. CONCLUSION This review article summarizes the pathophysiology of SB and putative origin of RMMA in both human and animal studies. Physiological factors contributing to RMMA in SB have been identified in human studies and may also be present in animal models. Further research is required to integrate the findings between human and animal studies to better understand the mechanisms underlying SB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diagnosis of sleep bruxism (SB) challenges clinicians every day due to multiple forms of assessment tools available, including self-reported questionnaires, clinical examinations, portable devices and laboratory polysomnography (PSG). PSG has become the gold standard for evaluating SB, but it can be limited due to cost and restricted accessibility which often is characterised by long waiting times. Hence, there is a need for the development of a reliable method that can assess SB in a simple and portable manner, which would offer acceptable sensitivity and specificity to evaluate SB. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate reliability and validity of the Bruxoff® device for the diagnosis of SB compared to the PSG. METHODS Forty-nine subjects underwent one night of polysomnographic study with simultaneous recording with the Bruxoff® device. Rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) index was scored according to published criteria. Pearson correlation, Bland-Altman plot and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve outcomes were used to quantify the agreement between both methods. RESULTS Receiver operating characteristic analysis showed an acceptable accuracy for the Bruxoff® with sensitivity of 83.3% and specificity of 72% when the cut-off was set at two events per hour. Pearson correlation analysis showed a nearly significant correlation between PSG and Bruxoff® for RMMA index (r = .282 p = .071) and for total SB episodes per night (r = .295 p = .058). Additionally, the Bland-Altman plot revealed a consistent and systematic difference in the measurement of events between devices. CONCLUSION The Bruxoff® device appears to be a promising diagnostic method for clinical use, but further study is needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To test the wear and fatigue resistance of three materials (Essix ACE®, Taglus®, and Zendura A®) for the fabrication of vacuum-formed retainers in an artificial oral environment. MATERIAL AND METHODS Wear resistance was tested by subjecting 21 retainers of each Essix ACE®, Taglus®, and Zendura A® to 12,000 wear cycles at 75N to simulate one year of retainer wear with moderate nighttime bruxing. Post-wear retainer thickness was compared to baseline measurements to calculate wear depth. Fatigue resistance was tested by flexing 15 retainers of each material at an angle of 25 degrees for 1,825 cycles to simulate one year of removing and reinserting a retainer five times per day. Retainers were visually inspected for fractures. Pairwise t-tests with correction using Tukey's method were used to determine significant differences between materials. RESULTS The mean wear depths were 0.155±0.021mm, 0.168±0.031mm, and 0.096±0.033mm for Essix ACE®, Taglus®, and Zendura A®, respectively. The wear depth of Zendura A® was significantly lower than that of both Essix ACE® (P<0.001) and Taglus® (P<0.001). There was no significant difference in wear depth between Essix ACE® and Taglus® (P=0.312). Under the parameters set for the fatigue resistance test, fractures did not occur on any of the tested materials. CONCLUSIONS Under the assumption of moderate nighttime bruxing for one year, Zendura A® is the most wear-resistant among the materials tested. With the assumption of retainer removal and reinsertion five times per day for one year, all three materials tested have the same ability to resist fatigue.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES The aim was to determine the prevalence and risk factors of sleep bruxism (SB) and to investigate the relationships between SB episodes, arousals, and respiratory events in adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS This prospective study included 914 adults with OSA (305 females, 609 males; age = 53 years [interquartile range = 17]; apnea-hypopnea index = 13.9 events/h [interquartile range = 21]). The diagnosis of SB was made when the rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) index was at least 2 episodes/h of sleep based on a full polysomnographic recording. Binary logistic regression was performed to identify risk factors for SB. Network analysis was performed to determine the relations between RMMA, respiratory event, sleep arousal, and other factors. Further, the percentage of RMMA time-related to arousal was calculated. RESULTS The prevalence of SB in adults with OSA was 49.7%. Male sex, lower body mass index, and higher percentage of N1 sleep increased the odds of having SB (odds ratios = 1.425, 0.951, and 1.032, respectively; all P < .05). Network analysis showed that there were no direct associations between RMMA and apnea-hypopnea index, nor between RMMA and arousal, although 85.7% of RMMA was time-related to arousals. CONCLUSIONS Nearly half of adults with OSA have comorbid SB. Male sex, lower body mass index, and a higher percentage of light sleep increase the risk of having SB. Although RMMAs do not directly correlate with respiratory events and arousals, most RMMAs are time-related to arousals in adults with OSA.

Aesthetic Plast Surg 2023; 47:775-790. [PMID: 36694050 DOI: 10.1007/s00266-023-03256-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study compiled evidence on the efficacy of botulinum toxin A (BTX) for management of bruxism. METHODS A literature review that included randomized control, cohort, as well as observational studies published between January 2000 and November 2022 was conducted. All studies related to BTX injections administered into the masseters of patients with bruxism were included. Primary outcomes were measured by performing a meta-analysis of changes in maximal biting forces and pain severity and meta-regression of the effects of the BTX dose. RESULTS Ten studies were included for quantitative analysis. The analysis of the maximal biting force after BTX injections demonstrated a significant reduction at 1 month or less compared with both oral splints (P < 0.000001) and saline injections (P = 0.01). BTX continued to outperform oral splinting (P = 0.001) and saline placebos (P = 0.03) at 3 months. Between 3 and 6 months, a significantly higher maximal biting strength was observed in the BTX group than the oral splinting group (P < 0.00001). No significant differences in the maximal biting force were observed between the BTX and saline placebo groups (P = 0.50). A similar trend was observed in the analysis of pain reduction after botulinum treatment. Additionally, for every unit increase in the BTX dose, pain severity decreased by 0.0831 points (P = 0.0011). CONCLUSION BTX is effective in reducing biting strength and pain severity. BTX effects are evident at less than 4 weeks, peak between 5 and 8 weeks, and last for up to 24 weeks. Higher BTX doses result in greater improvement in pain. Although BTX benefits manifest earlier, they gradually diminish, and oral splinting exerts a more enduring effect, especially after 9-12 weeks. BTX injections into masseters are recommended as management options for bruxers, especially for those having difficulties complying with wearing oral splints or those seeking earlier symptom relief. However, future studies should determine BTX effects beyond 24 weeks and after repetitive injections and how bruxers of different ages or genders respond to treatment.

Lee YH. Relationship Analogy between Sleep Bruxism and Temporomandibular Disorders in Children: A Narrative Review. CHILDREN 2022; 9:children9101466. [PMID: 36291402 PMCID: PMC9600472 DOI: 10.3390/children9101466] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2022] [Revised: 09/19/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Sleep bruxism (SB) is a condition characterized by repetitive clenching or grinding teeth and/or by bracing or thrusting of the mandible during sleep. Although SB is not considered a disorder in children, SB can be a potential physical and psychological hazard or consequence, and this study examines whether SB is a risk factor for TMD as it is in adults. A narrative review on the topic of inferring the relationship between sleep bruxism and TMD in children was performed based on a search in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases for articles published between 1999 and 2022. A total of 76 articles were included in this review. SB is very common in children, may be related to psychological distress or sleep breathing disorder, with a prevalence of up to 49%, and mainly occurs in the non-rapid eye movement stage in the sleep structure. SB may be one cause of TMD. The prevalence of TMD in children is 16–33%. Compared to the female-dominant TMD prevalence in adults, the sex-differences in TMD prevalence in children are less pronounced. However, TMD-related pain is more prevalent in girls than in boys. Given the complex etiology of each of SB and TMD in children, it can be inferred that the explanation of the relationship between the two conditions is very challenging. Ultimately, their relationship should be understood in the individual biopsychosocial model in the process of special physical growth and mental development of children. Moreover, appropriate clinical guidelines for a definitive diagnosis of SB and TMD in children and more research with a high scientific evidence level, which is comprehensive, considering physical, psychological, genetic, and social cultural factors, are required.

Oral appliances reduce masticatory muscle activity-sleep bruxism metrics independently of changes in heart rate variability. Clin Oral Investig 2022; 26:5653-5662.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Sleep bruxism (SB) is associated with physiological activities including sympathetic autonomic system dominance and sleep micro-arousal. While oral appliances (OA) are used to prevent SB harmful effects, the influence of OAs physiological mechanisms during sleep is unknown. The aim of this study is to assess whether heart rate variability (HRV) changes, as a marker of autonomic nervous system activity, would be associated with the OA mechanism of action on SB using occlusal splint (OS) and mandibular advancement splint (MAS). MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis, from data previously collected in 21 participants with SB (25.6 ± 4.5 years) with polysomnographic recordings, was done. HRV data were compared between a reference night (no-device) and ones during which OS or MAS was used in a crossover study design. Rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) index was compared between nights. HRV was evaluated using autoregressive model analysis for three sections: baseline (distance from RMMA), immediately before, and after RMMA period. RESULTS A significant reduction in RMMA index, when wearing OA during sleep, was observed (P < 0.01), but was not associated with HRV parameters change. HRV significantly changed after RMMA onset for nights with OA during non-REM sleep in comparison with baseline (P < 0.02). CONCLUSIONS The usage of OAs for SB participants reduced RMMA, but most likely independently of changes in HRV linked to the mechanism associated with SB genesis. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Wearing OA seems to reduce grinding noise and protect from dental injuries but does not seem to influence SB genesis.

The effects of mandibular advancement appliance therapy on the sequence of jaw-closing muscle activity and respiratory events in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea. Sleep Breath 2022; 27:757-764. [DOI: 10.1007/s11325-022-02624-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2022] [Revised: 03/16/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
To determine the effects of a mandibular advancement appliance (MAA) on sequences of jaw-closing muscle activity (JCMA) and apneic or hypopneic event (AHE) in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Methods
Individuals with OSA were included in a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled crossover trial, in which two ambulatory polysomnographic recordings were performed: one with MAA in situ and the other without MAA. A time span of 16 s between JCMA and AHE was applied to classify JCMAs into four sequences: (1) JCMA occurs before AHE (B-type); (2) both events occur simultaneously (S-type); (3) JCMA occurs after AHE (A-type); and (4) JCMA is time-unrelated to AHE (U-type). The effects of MAA on the distribution of these sequences were analyzed by Wilcoxon signed-rank test.
Results
Among 16 individuals (10 men, mean age 51.3 ± 8.5 years) baseline apnea–hypopnea index and JCMA index were 23.8 ± 16.0 events/h and 10.8 ± 10.3 events/h, respectively. In both conditions, i.e., without and with MAA, most JCMAs were U-type (48% and 65%, respectively), followed by A-type (41% and 22%), B-type (25% and 21%), and S-type (2% and 1%). With MAA in situ, only the A-type JCMA index decreased significantly (P = 0.005), while B-type, S-type, and U-type JCMA indices did not change significantly (all P > 0.05).
Conclusion
MAA therapy only significantly reduces the jaw-closing muscle activities that occur after apneic or hypopneic events in individuals with OSA.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A recent questionnaire-based study suggested that bruxism and painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD pain) may be more prevalent in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) compared with controls. The presence of both bruxism and TMD pain may negatively influence patients' quality of life. The present study is designed to clinically and more objectively investigate the presence of bruxism and TMD pain in patients with PD. The secondary aim of the study is to identify factors associated with bruxism and TMD pain in patients with PD, such as disease severity and dopaminergic medication usage. Furthermore, the presence of tooth wear in patients with PD will be studied as this can be a major consequence of bruxism. Finally, deviations in saliva composition that may contribute to tooth wear will be studied. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a single-centre observational outpatient study at the Amsterdam University Medical Centres, location VUmc. All patients with a clinical diagnosis of PD will be eligible for inclusion. Participants will fill in a set of questionnaires. Subsequently, patients will be examined clinically for, among others, TMD pain, presence and severity of tooth wear, and deviations in saliva composition. Sleep-time registrations will take place for 5 nights with the GrindCare GC4 (ie, a portable, single-channel electromyographic recorder) to assess sleep bruxism and simultaneously by the use of the BruxApp for 5 days to assess awake bruxism. We will partly use data collected during standard clinical care to minimise patient burden. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The scientific and ethical aspects of this study protocol have been approved by the Medical Ethics Review Committee of the Amsterdam UMC, location VUmc; NL. 2019.143. Informed consent will be obtained from all participants. The results will be published in a peer-reviewed journal, if relevant presented at conferences, and published as part of a PhD thesis.

Abstract
Bruxism may lead to changes or damage to the oral and perioral tissues. Bruxism may occur during sleep or when awake. Many patients will not require active management; however, for some, intervention is required. Control of bruxism may be difficult, if not impossible, but the need exists for preservation of the dentition and quality of life. A prediction of risk to the tissues for the planning of interventions is difficult and relies upon evidence of past damage and assessment of future risks. Treatment options may need to be imaginative and rescuable. This series of papers will review the aetiology of bruxism, its impacts and treatment strategies for persistent bruxers who are at risk of, or suffering, tissue damage.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Sleep bruxism is characterized by rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA). This study aimed to determine the number and type of jaw muscles needed for a valid RMMA scoring in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS 10 individuals with OSA (4 males; age = 50.1 ± 8.1 years) were included in this study. RMMA was scored using one or more of the following jaw muscles' electromyography (EMG) traces of polysomnography recordings: bilateral masseter and temporalis (4MT; the reference standard), unilateral masseter (1M), bilateral masseter (2M), unilateral temporalis (1T), bilateral temporalis (2T), unilateral chin EMG (1C), and bilateral chin EMG (2C). RESULTS 1M, 2M, 1T, and 2T showed excellent agreement with 4MT (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0.751, 0.976, 0.815, and 0.950, respectively), while 1C and 2C presented fair agreement (ICC= 0.662 and 0.657). Besides, 2M and 2T displayed good sensitivity (87.8% and 72.0%) and positive predictive value (PPV; 83.1% and 76.0%). In contrast, 1M and 1T had good sensitivity (88.4% and 87.8%) but fair PPV (60.1% and 53.2%). 1C and 2C showed poor sensitivity (41.1% and 40.3%) and fair PPV (62.9% and 60.6%). CONCLUSIONS Polysomnography with bilateral masseter or temporalis muscle EMG traces is regarded valid in RMMA scoring in individuals with OSA. In contrast, unilateral masseter or temporalis muscle EMG showed only fair accuracy, and chin EMG had poor accuracy. Consequently, these montages cannot be recommended for RMMA scoring in the presence of OSA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To validate a new diagnostic method (DIABRUX) for quantifying sleep bruxism (SB) activity using the current gold standard, polysomnography (PSG), as a criterion in an adequate sample size investigation. MATERIALS AND METHODS For SB diagnosis, each participant received a two-night ambulatory PSG including audio-video recordings. The 0.5-mm-thick sheet is produced in a thermoforming process. After diagnosis via PSG, each subject wore the diagnostic sheet for five consecutive nights. The resulting total abrasion on the surface was automatically quantified in pixels by a software specially designed for this purpose. RESULTS Forty-five participants (10 SB and 35 non-SB subjects) were included. The difference of the mean pixel score between the SB (M = 1,306, SD = 913) and the non-SB group (M = 381, SD = 483; 3.4 times higher for SB) was statistically significant (p < 0.001). The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analysis revealed a value of 507 pixels as the most appropriate cut-off criterion with a sensitivity of 1.0, a specificity to 0.8, and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.88. The positive and negative predictive value accounted for 0.59 and 1.0. CONCLUSIONS The present data confirm that the new diagnostic method is valid and user-friendly that may be used for therapeutic evaluation, and for the acquisition of larger sample sizes within sophisticated study designs. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The verified properties of the new diagnostic method allow estimating SB activity before damages occur due to long-standing bruxism activity. Therefore, it might be utilized for preventive dentistry. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NC T03325920 (September 22, 2017).

Abstract
PURPOSE To test the validity of a force-based detection system (ISFD: intra-splint force detector) to record sleep bruxism (SB) in comparison to portable polysomnography (PSG). METHODS Simultaneous portable PSG recordings with a masseter electromyography (EMG) channel and ISFD with a deformation-sensitive piezoelectric film were performed on six participants with definite SB. First, simulated bruxism behaviors (static clenching, grinding, tapping, and rhythmic clenching) were recorded using both EMG and ISFD. Using these data, interval and duration criteria for ISFD data conditioning were established. Then, portable PSG recordings were conducted with the ISFD during sleep. Using the above criteria, ISFD events were compared with EMG-based SB episodes (the gold standard), and the sensitivity and positive predictive value of ISFD events were calculated. Spearman's correlation coefficients between true-positive ISFD events and SB episodes were then calculated. RESULTS Among the tested conditioning criteria, a 3-s interval combined with a 1-s duration was selected. The median sensitivity and positive predictive value for the ISFD were 0.861 and 0.585, respectively. The duration of true-positive ISFD events was correlated with that of EMG-based SB episodes (rho = 0.658, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION ISFD has validity for SB detection and could be an alternative to single-channel EMG-based recordings.

Sleep Med 2021; 89:93-96. [PMID: 34952413 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2021.11.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2021] [Revised: 11/21/2021] [Accepted: 11/29/2021] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Arousals are common, sudden and transient elevations of the vigilance level during normal sleep, but arousal-associated behaviors have not yet been studied. OBJECTIVE We aimed to describe the duration as well as motor and autonomic patterns associated with arousals across sleep stages in normal subjects. METHODS The spontaneous arousals of 25 healthy young adults were randomly analyzed on polysomnography with body- and face-oriented video cameras. The duration of the heart rate response as well as the frequency, amplitude, speed, body segment and semiology of associated movements were measured. RESULTS Among 624 arousals (258 in N2, 140 in N3 and 226 in REM sleep), REM sleep arousals had the shortest duration, and N3 arousals were associated with greater heart rate acceleration. Movements and behaviors (mostly involving the head and neck, then the upper limbs, with rare eyes opening and no turning in bed) were frequent during arousals (69.4% during N2 sleep, 89.3% during N3 and 93.8% during REM sleep). Arousals more frequently included ample, prolonged and whole-body movements during N3 sleep and fast movements and facial expressions during REM sleep. During N2 arousals, chewing was the most prevalent behavior. Some movements resembled orientation and comfort behaviors (flexing/rotating the neck and trunk, scratching, pulling the sheets, rubbing the nose, yawning, smiling, frowning and speaking), whereas others resembled sleep-associated automatisms (swallowing, chewing). CONCLUSION In contrast with previous assumptions, most arousals are associated with movements. The type of movements suggests that arousal is an intermediary state between wakefulness and sleep.

Abstract
Purpose The aims of the present study were to investigate the temporal relationships between jaw and bodily movements and clarify motor processes in the genesis of rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) in sleep bruxism (SB).Methods Video-polysomnography recordings were obtained from ten subjects with SB (mean age: 23.4 ± 1.6 years) and ten matched normal controls (CTL) (mean age: 24.4 ± 3.2 years). RMMA and nonspecific masseter activity (NSMA) were scored in association with bodily movements in the leg, arm, head, and trunk using electromyography and video recordings. The relationship between oromotor episodes and bodily movements was assessed in terms of sleep stage distributions and temporal relationships. Cardiac changes preceding oromotor episodes in stage N2 were assessed.Results Approximately 80% of RMMA and NSMA were associated with movements in one or more body sites. RMMA and NSMA were more frequently associated with movements of the leg (70-75%) and arm (40-55%) than movements of the head (17-22%) and trunk (5-25%). The relationship between oromotor episodes and bodily movements did not significantly differ among sleep stages. Oromotor episodes and bodily movements did not show a consistent temporal pattern in the SB and CTL groups. Regardless of the temporal relationship between oromotor episodes and bodily movements, the mean heart rate significantly increased by 5 beats before the onset of oromotor episodes.Conclusions No specific temporal motor patterns were found between RMMA and bodily movements. RMMA and NSMA represent a repertoire of arousal-related autonomic motor responses during sleep.

Abstract
Sleep bruxism is an oral parafunction that involves involuntary tooth grinding and clenching. Splints with a colored layer that gets removed during tooth grinding are a common tool for the initial diagnosis of sleep bruxism. Currently, such splints are either assessed qualitatively or using 2D photographs, leading to a non-neglectable error due to the 3D nature of the dentition. In this study we propose a new and fast method for the quantitative assessment of tooth grinding surfaces using 3D scanning and mesh processing. We assessed our diagnostic method by producing 18 standardized splints with 8 grinding surfaces each, giving us a total of 144 surfaces. Moreover, each splint was scanned and analyzed five times. The accuracy and repeatability of our method was assessed by computing the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) as well reporting means and standard deviations of surface measurements for intra- and intersplint measurements. An ICC of 0.998 was computed as well as a maximum standard deviation of 0.63 mm2 for repeated measures, suggesting an appropriate accuracy of our proposed method. Overall, this study proposes an innovative, fast and cost effective method to support the initial diagnosis of sleep bruxism.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES The present study investigated the hypothesis that subjects with primary sleep bruxism (SB) exhibit masseter and cortical hyperactivities during quiet sleep periods that are associated with a high frequency of rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA). METHODS Fifteen SB and ten control participants underwent polysomnographic recordings. The frequencies of oromotor events and arousals and the percentage of arousals with oromotor events were assessed. Masseter muscle tone during sleep was quantified using a cluster analysis. Electroencephalography power and heart rate variability were quantified and then compared between the two groups and among sleep stages. RESULTS The frequency of RMMA and percentage of arousals with RMMA were significantly higher in SB subjects than in controls in all stages, while these variables for non-rhythmic oromotor events did not significantly differ between the groups. In SB subjects, the frequency of RMMA was the highest in stage N1 and the lowest in stages N3 and R, while the percentage of arousals with RMMA was higher in stage N3 than stages N1 and R. The cluster analysis classified masseter activity during sleep into two clusters for masseter tone and contractions. Masseter muscle tone showed typical stage-dependent changes in both groups, but did not significantly differ between the groups. Furthermore, no significant differences were observed in electroencephalography power or heart rate variability between the groups. CONCLUSION Young SB subjects exhibited sleep stage-dependent increases in the responsiveness of RMMA to transient arousals, but did not show masseter or cortical hyperactivity during sleep.

Abstract
It has been reported that rhythmic jaw movements (RJMs) spontaneously occur in ketamine-anesthetized animals. The present study investigated the physiological processes that occur during the cortical, cardiac, and respiratory events which contribute to the genesis of RJMs in animals after supplemental ketamine injections. Fourteen guinea pigs were prepared to allow electroencephalographic, electrocardiographic, and electromyographic activities to be recorded from the digastric muscle, measurement of jaw movements, and nasal expiratory airflow under ketamine-xylazine anesthesia. Rhythmic jaw movements spontaneously occurred with rhythmic digastric muscle contractions, 23-29 minutes after injection of supplemental ketamine (12.5 and 25.0 mg kg-1 , intravenously). The cycle length of RJMs did not differ significantly between the two doses of ketamine (mean±SD: 12.5 mg kg-1 , 326.5 ± 60.0 ms; 25 mg kg-1 , 278.5 ± 45.1 ms). Following injection of ketamine, digastric muscle activity, heart and respiratory rates, and cortical beta power significantly decreased, while cortical delta and theta power significantly increased. These changes were significantly larger in animals given 25.0 mg kg-1 of ketamine than in those given 12.5 mg kg-1 . With the onset of RJMs, the levels of these variables returned to pre-injection levels, regardless of the dose of ketamine administered. These results suggest that, following supplemental ketamine injections, spontaneous RJMs occur during a specific period when the pharmacological effects of ketamine wear off, and that these RJMs are characterized by stereotypical changes in cardiac, respiratory, and cortical activities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the association between waking-state oral behaviours and temporomandibular disorder (TMD) subgroups and to develop new scoring methods for the Oral Behavior Checklist (OBC). METHODS Patients with any TMD diagnosis, according to the diagnostic criteria for TMD (DC/TMD), were divided into subgroups: 'Dysfunctional-TMD' (n = 70), only mechanical dysfunction; 'Painful-TMD' (n = 204), only myalgia, arthralgia or both; and 'Painful-Dysfunctional TMD' (n = 95), combined pain and dysfunction. A group of individuals without TMD, 'Non-TMD' (n = 374), was used for testing associations. Participants completed the OBC. An exploratory factor analysis, followed by a confirmatory factor analysis of the OBC responses, identified 2 major factors, named non-functional activities (NFA) and functional activities (FA). Component total scores were computed. Differences among subgroups for OBC-MS (mean score) and NFA and FA factor scores were estimated using one-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc tests. Significance was set at p < .05. RESULTS The OBC-MS in Non-TMD, Painful-TMD and Painful-Dysfunctional TMD subgroups was higher than in the Dysfunctional-TMD subgroup (p ≤ .001). NFA in Painful-TMD and Painful-Dysfunctional TMD subgroups were higher than in the Non-TMD group (p < .05); NFA in the Dysfunctional-TMD subgroup were lower than in the Painful-TMD subgroup (p = .034). In contrast, FA in Painful-TMD, Dysfunctional-TMD and Painful-Dysfunctional TMD subgroups were lower than in the Non-TMD group (p < .0001). CONCLUSIONS A new scoring method for the OBC results in item reduction and creation of meaningful subscales for functional and non-functional behaviours, which are differentially associated with painful and dysfunctional TMDs. This may help clinicians to better tailor treatment for the management of subtypes of TMD patients.

Abstract
Mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus (MTN) neurons innervate the stretch receptors of the jaw elevator muscles and periodontal ligament mechanoreceptors, Bruxism activates the MTN. We analyzed how MTN cells are structured, their anatomy and physiology, and the effects of their activation. To induce and maintain sleep, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an inhibitor neurotransmitter, is released from the ventro-lateral preoptic area of the hypothalamus and acts on the ascending reticular activating system (ARAS) nuclei. The GABA neurotrasmitter induces the entry of chlorine into cells, hyperpolarizing and inhibiting these. MTN cells, on the contrary, are depolarized by GABA, as their receptors are activated upon GABA binding. They “let out” chlorine and activate ARAS cells. MTN cells release glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter onto their target cells, in this case onto ARAS cells. During wakefulness, ARAS activation causes cerebral cortex activation; instead, during sleep (sleep bruxism), ARAS activation avoids an excessive reduction in ARAS neurotransmitters, including noradrenaline, dopamine, serotonin, acetylcholine and glutamate. These neurotransmitters, in addition to activating the cerebral cortex, modulate vital functions such as cardiac and respiratory functions. Polysomnography shows that sleep bruxism is always accompanied by cardiac and respiratory activation and, most importantly, by brain function activation. Bruxism is not a parafunction, and it functions to activate ARAS nuclei.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ambulatory electromyographic (EMG) devices are increasingly being used in sleep bruxism studies. EMG signal acquisition, analysis and scoring methods vary between studies. This may impact comparability of studies and the assessment of sleep bruxism in patients. OBJECTIVES (a) To provide an overview of EMG signal acquisition and analysis methods of recordings from limited-channel ambulatory EMG devices for the assessment of sleep bruxism; and (b) to provide an overview of outcome measures used in sleep bruxism literature utilising such devices. METHOD A scoping review of the literature was performed. Online databases PubMed and Semantics Scholar were searched for studies published in English until 7 October 2020. Data on five categories were extracted: recording hardware, recording logistics, signal acquisition, signal analysis and sleep bruxism outcomes. RESULTS Seventy-eight studies were included, published between 1977 and 2020. Recording hardware was generally well described. Reports of participant instructions in device handling and of dealing with failed recordings were often lacking. Basic elements of signal acquisition, for example amplifications factors, impedance and bandpass settings, and signal analysis, for example rectification, signal processing and additional filtering, were underreported. Extensive variability was found for thresholds used to characterise sleep bruxism events. Sleep bruxism outcomes varied, but typically represented frequency, duration and/or intensity of masticatory muscle activity (MMA). CONCLUSION Adequate and standardised reporting of recording procedures is highly recommended. In future studies utilising ambulatory EMG devices, the focus may need to shift from the concept of scoring sleep bruxism events to that of scoring the whole spectrum of MMA.

STUDY OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to clarify the physiological relationships between rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) and cyclic changes in cortical, autonomic, and arousal-motor activities during sleep in sleep bruxism (SB) children. METHODS Polysomnographic recordings were performed on fifteen SB children (9 boys, 6 girls, 10.3 ± 2.5 years) and eighteen control children (5 boys, 13 girls, 10.7 ± 3.1 years) free from sleep and developmental disorders. Sleep and RMMA were scored by the standard rules. Sleep cycle was divided into NREM and REM sleep segments and the frequency of RMMA, transient arousal and movement, and cortical and cardiac activities were then quantitatively analyzed in relation to sleep cycles. RESULTS Neither sleep architecture nor sleep stage distribution of RMMA significantly differed between two groups. In sleep cycles, SB children showed more frequent RMMA in all segments than controls, while cyclic changes in cortical and autonomic activities did not significantly differ between two groups. In SB children, RMMA was the most frequent in the last NREM segment before REM sleep and was associated with increases in cortical beta activity and arousal; more than 70% of RMMA time-dependently occurred with cortical and motor arousals. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to suggest that the potentiation of RMMA occurrence was associated with transient arousal under cyclic sleep processes in primary SB children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinically, sleep bruxism is considered to be associated with the presence of tooth wear, but strong evidence is still lacking. OBJECTIVE To examine whether an association exists between polysomnographic parameters, recorded from patients with possible sleep bruxism and tooth wear. METHODS Sixty-three possible sleep bruxers (19 males and 44 females, mean ± SD age = 38.5 ± 11.4 years) were recruited among patients attending the Clinic for orofacial pain and dysfunction of the Academic Centre for Dentistry Amsterdam (ACTA). The incisal/occlusal tooth wear was recorded for each tooth clinically, using a 5-point ordinal scale. Subsequently, all patients underwent an one-night ambulatory polysomnographic recording, during which the number of bruxism episodes per hour of sleep (Epi/h), the number of bruxism bursts per hour of sleep (Bur/h), and the bruxism time index (BTI) were recorded and analysed. Logistic regression analysis was performed using the presence of tooth wear as the dependent variable, the polysomnographic recordings as independent variables, and corrected for age and gender. The Bur/h and BTI were removed from the analyses due to collinearity with the Epi/h. Additionally, the polysomnographic recordings were also tested for possible association with self-reported grinding of the teeth during sleep. RESULTS No significant correlation was found between tooth wear and Epi/h (P = 0.381). In addition, the presence of tooth wear was not associated with self-reported parafunctions. CONCLUSION Clinically measured tooth wear and self-reported parafunction seem not be related to the polysomnographic parameters of possible sleep bruxism.

Abstract
Sleep bruxism is a common sleep-related behavior characterized as repetitive masticatory muscle activity. Genetic vulnerability to stress and anxiety is considered a basal component in the pathogenesis of bruxism events. Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system related with an arousal during sleep is considered an underlying cause of the cardiovascular implications of sleep bruxism. Increased cardiovascular risk was previously linked with sleep conditions: for example, obstructive sleep apnea and insomnia, and sleep bruxism. The aim of present systematic review was to evaluate the current arguments on the relationship between sleep bruxism and cardiovascular diseases according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). We have reviewed the Embase, PubMed (Medline) and Scopus databases to identify applicable articles (1994-2021). A total of 127 records in English language were identified, then after screening and exclusion of nonrelevant records, 19 full-text articles were evaluated. Finally, we included 12 studies for synthesis. Due to the heterogeneity of the compared studies, only a qualitative comparison and narrative summary were performed. In the majority of studies, increased sympathetic activity was successfully established to escalate heart rate variability, the inflammatory process, oxidative stress, endothelial remodeling and hormonal disturbances, leading to hypertension and other cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
The vision of adult sleep bruxism (SB) has changed over time. Thus, among the most important concomitant factors of SB noted are the pathophysiological aspect, namely sleep arousal, obstructive sleep apnea, gastroesophageal pH/gastroesophageal reflux disease, and the use or abuse of certain substances. The aim of this article was to review the main clinically relevant pathophysiological SB-associated factors and a proposal for a diagnostic process.

Use of mandibular advancement devices for the treatment of primary snoring with or without obstructive sleep apnea (OSA): A systematic review. Sleep Med Rev 2020; 56:101407.

Abstract
The aim of this review was to systematically evaluate the available scientific evidence on the benefit of mandibular advancement devices (MADs) in the treatment of primary snoring (PS). From 905 initially identified articles, 18 were selected. Papers that provided indirect information regarding obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and/or sleep breathing disorders (SBD) were included. Information was obtained on monoblock and duoblock appliances from the selected studies. The devices were most commonly able to achieve 50%-70% of the maximum mandibular protrusion. The frequently used outcome measurements were the apnea-hypopnea index, Epworth sleepiness scale, and oxygen desaturation index, which all yielded positive post-treatment results. The most common side effects were temporomandibular joint pain and excessive salivation, which improved with time. Our findings indicated that the use of MADs, even with varying designs, improved outcomes in all the reported patient populations (PS, OSAS, and SBD). Despite the lack of studies on PS, the available evidence supports the use of MADs for treatment of PS. Snoring should be treated from a preventive and psychosocial perspective to avoid progression to more severe diseases that could have a significant medical and economic impact.

Abstract
Bruxism: Classification, Diagnostics and Treatment Abstract. Bruxism, the grinding or clenching of teeth, is common in the population. Stress, anxiety syndromes and genetic disposition seem to be dominant factors that lead to increased muscle tension. A distinction is made between two circadian manifestations, sleep and wake bruxism. Bruxism is a major risk factor for tooth structure and dentures. The diagnosis is based on a targeted medical history and examination. Sleep bruxism can be demonstrated by electromyography and video recording in the sleep laboratory. The treatment aims to protect the hard tooth substance and preserve the denture using occlusal splints. Relaxation exercises can improve bruxism. Specialized physiotherapy can improve tension, pain and restricted movement. Botulinum toxin treatment reduces the subjective complaints during the period of action.

Abstract
Background: Rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA) in sleep is usually not considered pathological unless associated with bruxism. On the other hand, so-called sleep-related rhythmic movement disorders (SRRMD) are a recognized category of sleep disorders, which involve prolonged rhythmic activity of large muscle groups, such as the whole body, the head, or a limb, but typically not the masticatory muscles.Clinical Presentation: A polysomnographic description of a patient with symptomatic RMMA without bruxism, fulfilling the diagnostic criteria of an SRRMD, is presented. The symptoms were initially misdiagnosed as bruxism and then as sleep-related epilepsy, which delayed an adequate treatment. Therapy of the comorbid obstructive sleep apnea with a positive airway pressure device (APAP) led to a self-reported improvement.Conclusion: The differential diagnosis of jaw movement in sleep is vast; a correct diagnosis is of the essence for adequate treatment. The prevalence of isolated RMMA resulting in perturbation of sleep warrants further exploration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have shown co-contraction of jaw and neck muscles in healthy subjects during (sub) maximum voluntary jaw clenching, indicating functional inter-relation between these muscles during awake bruxism. So far, coherence of jaw and neck muscles has not been evaluated during either awake or sleep bruxism. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the coherence between jaw and neck muscle activity during sleep bruxism. METHODS In a cross-sectional observational design, the electromyographic activity of jaw (masseter, temporalis) and neck (sternocleidomastoid, trapezius) muscles in individuals with "definite" sleep bruxism was measured using ambulatory polysomnography (PSG). Coherence for masseter-temporalis, masseter-sternocleidomastoid and masseter-trapezius was measured during phasic and mixed rhythmic masticatory muscle activity episodes using coherence-analysing software. Outcome measures were as follows: presence or absence of significant coherence per episode (in percentages), frequency of peak coherence (FPC) per episode and sleep stage. RESULTS A total of 632 episodes within 16 PSGs of eight individuals were analysed. Significant coherence was found between the jaw and neck muscles in 84.9% of the episodes. FPCs of masseter-temporalis were significantly positively correlated with those of masseter-sternocleidomastoid or masseter-trapezius (P < .001). Sleep stages did not significantly influence coherence of these muscular couples. CONCLUSION During sleep bruxism, jaw and neck muscle activation is significantly coherent. Coherence occurs independently of sleep stage. These results support the hypothesis of bruxism being a centrally regulated phenomenon.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) for managing sleep bruxism (SB) in a randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Thirty SB subjects were randomly assigned into two groups evenly. The placebo group received saline injections into each masseter muscle, and the treatment group received BoNT-A injections into each masseter muscle. Audio-video-polysomnographic recordings in the sleep laboratory were made before, at four weeks after, and at 12 weeks after injection. Sleep and SB parameters were scored according to the diagnostic and coding manual of American Academy of Sleep Medicine. The change of sleep and SB parameters were investigated using repeated measures analysis of variance (RM-ANOVA). Twenty-three subjects completed the study (placebo group 10, treatment group 13). None of the SB episode variables showed a significant time and group interaction (p > 0.05) except for electromyography (EMG) variables. The peak amplitude of EMG bursts during SB showed a significant time and group interaction (p = 0.001). The injection decreased the peak amplitude of EMG bursts during SB only in the treatment group for 12 weeks (p < 0.0001). A single BoNT-A injection cannot reduce the genesis of SB. However, it can be an effective management option for SB by reducing the intensity of the masseter muscle.
