Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Sleep Bruxism
A sleep disorder characterized by grinding and clenching of the teeth and forceful lateral or protrusive jaw movements. Sleep bruxism may be associated with TOOTH INJURIES; TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT DISORDERS; sleep disturbances; and other conditions.
Bruxism
A disorder characterized by grinding and clenching of the teeth.
1-alkyl-2-acetylglycerophosphocholine Esterase
A lipoprotein-associated PHOSPHOLIPASE A2 which modulates the action of PLATELET ACTIVATING FACTOR by hydrolyzing the SN-2 ester bond to yield the biologically inactive lyso-platelet-activating factor. It has specificity for phospholipid substrates with short-chain residues at the SN-2 position, but inactive against long-chain phospholipids. Deficiency in this enzyme is associated with many diseases including ASTHMA, and HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA.
Occlusal Splints
Rigid or flexible appliances that overlay the occlusal surfaces of the teeth. They are used to treat clenching and bruxism and their sequelae, and to provide temporary relief from muscle or temporomandibular joint pain.
Cannabinol
A physiologically inactive constituent of Cannabis sativa L.
Clinical Trials
Treatment Period and Long-term Effect of Functional Electric Stimulation (FES) for Bruxism
To investigate the effect of the treatment with Grindcare® on the muscles- and jaw symptoms and at the jaw muscle activity during sleep.
Relationship of Facial Pattern With Bruxism
The purpose of this study is to determine if the facial pattern is related to the degree of bruxism because the muscles of mastication are the factors of force to the wear of the teeth.
Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Botox in Bruxism
The purpose of this study is to determine whether botulinum toxin helps patients with bruxism.
The aim of the study is to investigate whether inactive FSH plays a role in the development of Premature Ovarian Failure in women with Classic Galactosemia
The purpose is to compare solifenacin and oxybutynin with an inactive tablet and assess any potential effects on mental ability.

Associations between sleep bruxism, TMD and depression.
Self-reported bruxism mirrors anxiety and stress in adults.
Objectives: The aims were to analyze whether the levels of self-reported bruxism and anxiety associate among otherwise healthy subjects, and to investigate the independent effects of anxiety and stres...
Treatment of severe bruxism with botulinum toxin type A.
INTRODUCTION. The possible usefulness of botulinum toxin type A in the treatment of bruxism has not been studied exhaustively, being limited to some isolated case reports, two short case-series and a...
The two main theories on dental bruxism.
Bruxism is characterized by non-functional contact of mandibular and maxillary teeth resulting in clenching or grating of teeth. Theories on factors causing bruxism are a matter of controversy in curr...
Many dentists believe that sleep bruxism (SB) is a pathogenic factor in myofascial temporomandibular disorder (TMD), but almost all supportive data rely on patients' self-reports rather than on direct...
