==Overview==
==Overview==
Bruxism is defined as repeated involuntary grinding and clenching of teeth which can occur either diurnal or nocturnally. In 1907 Marie Pielkiewics coined the french term 'La Bruxomanie" for bruxism. Bruxism can be classified into awake bruxism and sleep bruxism based on the physiological sleep status of the individual. The etiology of bruxism can be categorized into three groups psychosocial factors, peripheral factors, and pathophysiological factors. Multifactorial etiology causes involving brain neurotransmitters or basal ganglia. Bruxism affects men and women equally. Factors associated with an increased risk of bruxism include Obstructive sleep apnea, Alcohol abuse, caffeine intake, Smoking, Anxiety. The symptoms of bruxism, usually develop in the first decade of life, and start with symptoms such as the appearance of the first primary upper and lower anterior teeth. Common complications of bruxism are tooth wear, tooth hypersensitivity. Bruxism is primarily diagnosed based on the clinical presentation. H/o complains of disturbance from the clicking or grating sound by the accompanied partners. The most common symptoms of bruxism include Involuntary rhythmic contractions of the masticator muscles during sleep. Removal of any offending agent responsible for bruxism is the primary step in the management. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment in the management of bruxism.

==Pathophysiology==
*Bruxism is caused by the activation of [[reflex]]ive [[chewing]] activity<ref name="pmid18557915">{{cite journal |vauthors=Lavigne GJ, Khoury S, Abe S, Yamaguchi T, Raphael K |title=Bruxism physiology and pathology: an overview for clinicians |journal=J Oral Rehabil |volume=35 |issue=7 |pages=476–94 |date=July 2008 |pmid=18557915 |doi=10.1111/j.1365-2842.2008.01881.x |url=}}</ref>
*[[Mastication|Chewing]] is a [[neuromuscular]] activity that is controlled by the [[reflex]] [[nerve]] pathways.
*During [[sleep]], the [[reflex]] part is active while the higher control is inactive, resulting in bruxism.
*As stated, bruxism is considered to have multifactorial [[etiology]]. Multifactorial [[etiology]] causes involving [[brain]] [[neurotransmitters]] or [[basal ganglia]].
*'''Pathophysiological Factors'''
**As bruxism often occurs during [[sleep]], the [[physiology]] of [[sleep]] has been studied extensively, especially the ‘arousal response’, in search of possible [[causes]] of a disorder.<ref name="pmid18557915">{{cite journal |vauthors=Lavigne GJ, Khoury S, Abe S, Yamaguchi T, Raphael K |title=Bruxism physiology and pathology: an overview for clinicians |journal=J Oral Rehabil |volume=35 |issue=7 |pages=476–94 |date=July 2008 |pmid=18557915 |doi=10.1111/j.1365-2842.2008.01881.x |url=}}</ref>
**Arousal response is a sudden change in the depth of the [[sleep]] during which the individual either arrives in the lighter [[sleep]] stage or actually wakes up.
**Such a response is accompanied by gross body movements, increased [[heart rate]], [[respiratory]] changes, and increased [[muscle]] activity.
**It is derived that disturbances in the central [[neurotransmitter system]] may be involved in the [[etiology]] of bruxism.
**It is hypothesized that the direct and indirect pathways of the [[basal ganglion]], a group of five subcortical nuclei that are involved in the coordination of movements, is disturbed in bruxer.
**The direct output pathway goes directly from the stratum to the [[thalamus]] from where afferent signals project to the [[cerebral cortex]]. The indirect pathway, on the other hand, passes by several other nuclei before reaching it to the [[thalamus]].
**If there is an imbalance between the pathways, movement disorder results like [[Parkinson’s disease]].
**The imbalance occurs with the disturbances in the [[dopamine]]-mediated transmission of an [[action potential]]. In the case of bruxism there may be an imbalance in both pathways.
**Acute use of [[dopamine]] precursors like [[L-dopa]] inhibits bruxism activity and chronic long-term use of [[l-dopa]] results in increased bruxism activity. SSRTs ([[serotonin reuptake inhibitors]]), which exert an indirect influence on the [[dopaminergic system]], may cause bruxism after long-term use.
**[[Amphetamine]], which increases the [[dopamine]] concentration by facilitating its release has been observed to increase bruxism.
**[[Nicotine]] stimulates central [[dopaminergic]] activities, which might explain the finding that [[Cigarette smoking|cigarette smokers]] report bruxism two times more than the nonsmokers.
*'''Psychosocial Factors'''
**There is no proper description of conclusive nature of [[psychological]] factors role in bruxism because of the absence of large scale longitudinal trials.

==History and Symptoms==
<br />
 
==Epidemiology and Demographics==
Bruxism often occurs during [[sleep]] and can even occur during short naps. Bruxism is one of the most common [[Sleep disorders|sleep disorder]]<nowiki/>s: 30 to 40 million Americans grind their [[teeth]] during sleep.
====Gender====
 
*Bruxism affects [[men]] and [[women]] equally.
 
====Age====
 
*Bruxism commonly affects individuals younger than 6 years of [[age]] and its [[incidence]] declines as [[age]] increases.
*
 
==Screening==
There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine [[screening]] for bruxism.
==Risk Factors==
Factors associated with an increased risk of bruxism include:


Bruxism can result in abnormal wear patterns of the [[Commonly used terms of relationship and comparison in dentistry|occlusal]] surface, abfractions and fractures in the teeth. This type of damage is categorised as a sign of [[occlusal trauma]].
*[https://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/Obstructive_sleep_apnea Obstructive sleep apnea]
*[https://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/Alcohol_abuse Alcohol abuse]
*[[Caffeine]] intake
*[https://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/Smoking Smoking]
*[https://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/Anxiety Anxiety]


Over time, dental damage will usually occur. Bruxism is the leading cause of occlusal trauma and a significant cause of tooth loss and gum recession.
==Natural History, Complications and Prognosis==
===Natural History===


In a typical case, the [[canine tooth|canines]] and [[incisor]]s of the opposing arches are moved against each other laterally, i.e. with a side-to-side action by the [[lateral pterygoid muscle]]s that lie medial to the [[temporomandibular joint]]s bilaterally. This movement abrades tooth structure, and can lead to the wearing down of the [[Commonly used terms of relationship and comparison in dentistry|incisal]] edges of the teeth. People with bruxism may also grind their [[Commonly used terms of relationship and comparison in dentistry|posterior]] teeth, which will wear down the [[cusp (dental)|cusp]]s of the occlusal surface.  Bruxing can be loud enough to wake a sleeping partner. Some individuals will clench the jaw without significant lateral movements.
*The [[symptoms]] of bruxism, usually develop in the first decade of life, and start with [[symptoms]] such as appearance of the first primary upper and lower anterior [[teeth]].
*The [[symptoms]] of bruxism typically develop in [[childhood]] and may persist into [[adult]] due to presence of other [[risk factors]].
*Usually bruxism follows a [[benign]] course.
*If left untreated, bruxism can lead to [[hypertrophy]] of [[masseter muscle]] accompanied by tenderness of [[TMJ]], which manifests as [[otalgia]].


Eventually, bruxing shortens and blunts the teeth being ground, and may lead to myofacial muscle pain and [[headache]]s. In severe, chronic cases, it can lead to [[arthritis]] of the [[temporomandibular joint]]s.
===Complications===
Common [[complications]] of bruxism are:


Most bruxers are not aware of their bruxism and only 5-10% go on to develop symptoms such as jaw pain and headache. Teeth hollowed by previous decay ([[caries]]), or dental drilling, may collapse, as the cyclic pressure exerted by bruxism is extremely taxing on the tooth structure.
*Tooth wear
*[[Tooth]] hypersensitivity
*[[Tooth]] mobility
*[[Pain]] in the [[temporomandibular joint]] (TMJ) or [[jaw]] musculature
*Temporal [[headache]],
*Poor [[sleep]]
*Signs of this parafunctional habit
**Indentation on the [[tongue]]
**Presence of [[linea alba]] along the biting plane of the [[buccal mucosa]]
**[[Gingival]] recessions


==Diagnosis==
==Diagnosis==
Bruxism is not the only cause of tooth wear. Over-vigorous brushing, abrasives in [[toothpaste]], acidic soft drinks and abrasive foods can also be contributing factors; each has characteristic wear patterns that a trained professional can identify.
===Diagnostic study of choice===
Bruxism is primarily diagnosed based on the clinical presentation.


The effects of bruxing may be quite advanced before sufferers are aware they brux. Abraded teeth are usually brought to the patient's attention during a routine dental examination. If enough [[enamel]] has been abraded, the softer [[dentine]] will be exposed and abrasion will accelerate. This opens the possibility of dental [[tooth decay|decay]] and tooth fracture, and in some people, [[gum recession]]. Early intervention by a dentist is advisable.
*History of tooth grinding during [[sleep]]
*Confirmation by parents or bed partners.


==Treatment==
<br />
There is no accepted cure for bruxism.<ref>Nissani, Moti: [http://www.oc-j.com/june00/Splint1.htm "When the Splint Fails: Non-Traditional Approaches to the Treatment of Bruxism"],Author's website, Wayne State University.</ref>A recently introduced device called the [[BiteStrip]] enables at-home overnight testing for sleep bruxism. It is proposed that this might help diagnose bruxism before damage appears on the teeth. The device is a miniature [[Electromyography|electromyograph]] machine that senses jaw muscle activity while the patient sleeps. A dentist can establish the frequency of bruxing, which helps in formulating a treatment plan. Anyone having major occlusal rehabilitation should be aware that bruxism can easily ruin [[prosthetic]] dental work.
===History===
 
*History of complaints of disturbance from the clicking or grating sound by the accompanied partners.
 
===Symptoms===
The most common [[symptoms]] of bruxism include:<ref name="MacedoMacedo2014">{{cite journal|last1=Macedo|first1=Cristiane R|last2=Macedo|first2=Elizeu C|last3=Torloni|first3=Maria R|last4=Silva|first4=Ademir B|last5=Prado|first5=Gilmar F|last6=Macedo|first6=Cristiane R|title=Pharmacotherapy for sleep bruxism|year=2014|doi=10.1002/14651858.CD005578.pub2}}</ref>
 
*Involuntary rhythmic contractions of the masticator muscles during [[sleep]].
*Secondary [[symptoms]] may develop due to forceful grinding in some  [[patients]] which include:
**Morning [[headaches]]
**[[Jaw pain]]
**Clicking in the [[temporomandibular joint]]<nowiki/>s
*[[Dental]] deformities may be seen, however not [[disease]] specific, and not limited to:
**Thermal sensitivity in the [[teeth]]
**Hypermobility
**Need for [[dental]] restorations
**[[Tooth]] wear  on [[tooth]] surfaces that contact during biting or [[chewing]]
**Lateral grinding forces in particular can be particularly destructive.
*Severe cases of bruxism do present with:
**Injury to soft tissues of the [[mouth]]
**[[Dental fractures]]
**Difficulty with [[chewing]]
**[[Temporomandibular joint]] [[pain]] and dysfunction
**[[Head]] and [[neck pain]]
 
===Physical Examination===
Patients with  bruxism usually appear normal.
 
===Laboratory Findings===
There are no diagnostic [[laboratory]] findings associated with  bruxism.
 
===Electrocardiogram===
There are no [[ECG]]findings associated with bruxism.
 
===X-ray===
There are no [[x-ray]] findings associated with bruxism.
 
===Echocardiography or Ultrasound===
There are no [[echocardiography]]/[[ultrasound]] findings associated with bruxism .


===Mouthguards and Repositioning Splints===
===CT scan===
Ongoing management of bruxism is based on minimizing the abrasion of tooth surfaces by the wearing of an acrylic [[mouthguard|dental guard]] or ''splint'', designed to the shape of an individual's upper or lower teeth from a bite mould. Mouthguards are obtained through visits to a dentist for measuring, fitting, and ongoing supervision. There are four possible goals of this treatment: constraint of the bruxing pattern such that serious damage to the temperomandibular joints is prevented, stabilization of the occlusion by minimizing the gradual changes to the positions of the teeth that typically occur with bruxism, prevention of tooth damage, and the enabling of a bruxism practitioner to judge — in broad terms — the extent and patterns of bruxism, through examination of the physical indentations on the surface of the splint. A dental guard is typically worn on a long-term basis during every night's sleep.
There are no [[CT scan]] findings associated with bruxism.


Professional treatment is medically recommended to ensure proper fit, make ongoing adjustments as needed, and check that the [[occlusion]] (bite) has remained stable.<ref name="capp1999">Capp, N.J. ([[1999]]-[[03-13]].) [http://www.nature.com/bdj/journal/v186/n5/full/4800069a.html "Tooth surface loss; Part 3: Occlusion and splint therapy"]. ''British Dental Journal'', Vol. 186, No. 5, via nature.com. Retrieved on [[2007]]-[[10-14]].</ref> Monitoring of the mouthguard is suggested at each dental visit.<ref name="capp1999" />
===MRI===
There are no [[MRI]] findings associated with bruxism.


Another type of device sometimes given to a bruxer is a repositioning splint. A repositioning splint may look similar to a traditional night guard, but is designed to change the occlusion, or "bite," of the patient.  Randomly controlled trials with these type devices generally show no benefit <ref>Clark, GT, Minakuchi, H: Oral Appliances, TMDs An Evidence-Based Approach to Diagnosis and Treatment, Chicago, 2006, Quintessence, pp. 377-390</ref><ref>Dao, TTT, Lavigne, GJ.: Oral Splints: The Crutches For Temperomandibular Disorders and Bruxism?

There are no other imaging findings associated with bruxism.


The NTI-tss device is another option that can be considered.  The NTI covers only the front teeth and prevents the rear molars from coming into contact, thus limiting the contraction of the temporalis muscle. The NTI must be fit by your dentist.
===Other Diagnostic Studies===
There are no other diagnostic studies associated with bruxism.


The efficacy of such devices is debated. Some writers propose that irreversible complications can result from the long-term use of mouthguards and repositioning splints.<ref>Widmalm, Sven E.

===Biofeedback===

Various biofeedback devices are currently available, but their effectiveness is as yet unproven. While anecdotal evidence suggests that they may be useful, some bruxism authorities remain unconvinced.<ref>Nissani, Moti.

**Preferred regimen 2: [https://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/Gabapentin Gabapentin] 100 to 300 mg PO q24


One biofeedback mechanism that has significant promise was developed by Moti Nissani, PhD and is called [http://www.therabrux.com ''"The Taste-Based Approach to the Prevention of Teeth Clenching and Grinding." ''] The therapy involves suspending sealed packets containing a bad-tasting substance (e.g. hot sauce, vinegar, denatonium benzoate, etc.)  between the rear molars using an orthodontic-style appliance. Any attempt to bring the teeth together will rupture the packets and alert the user to the habit. While no cure exists for bruxism, this approach, if implemented properly and rigorously, has promise to be an effective treatment for bruxism.  Importantly, the Taste-Based Approach does not suffer from the risk of desensitization that other available sound-based biofeedback approaches may have. (There is effectively no limit to the aversive taste of certain substances. We can therefore be sure that some harmless substance exists that will alert anyone to the habit.)
===Surgery===
Surgery is the mainstay of treatment in the management of bruxism.
====Indications====


One of these devices, the ''Oralsensor'', comprises a pneumatic pouch embedded in a soft polymer plate that fits over upper or lower teeth. When the teeth come together—to a threshold pressure set each night by the user—an alarm is sounded in an earpiece worn by the user. Another biofeedback device, [http://www.bruxcare.com ''GrindAlert''], is a battery-powered device that sounds a tone when it senses [[EMG]] (electromyographic) muscle activity in the [[temporalis]] muscles of the forehead. This device delivers nightly data on the number of bruxism events that last for at least two seconds, and the total duration of those events. The volume of the alarm and the sensitivity of the piezo device to EMG signals from the muscles are adjustable.


In 2005, a new type of occlusive device was patented that produces a movement incompatible with teeth clenching. When nighttime bruxism occurs, people breathe through the nose. The device forces people to breathe through the mouth; by forcing the opening of the mouth, the device is claimed to stop clenching. The occlusive device has an electromyogram system that monitors the electric activity of the jaw muscle via wireless electrodes. These electrodes transfer jaw-muscle activity by radio frequency to an external monitoring system. Once the signal has been interpreted by the monitoring system, if a person clenches, the monitoring unit sends a radio frequency signal to a transceiver integrated in a mechanical actuator. The mechanical actuator has two occlusive flaps that block the nostrils, forcing breathing to occur through the mouth. Once the patient stops clenching, the flaps open, allowing breathing through the nose again. The occlusive device does not wake up people since it blocks nostrils slowly, and it never closes them completely to avoid sleep disruption.<ref>[http://www.bit.or.at/ik/ec-bbsshow8.php?ref1=05%20ES%20BCAV%200D7T&vQuelle=ecaustria.at&cc= "Abfrageergebnisse"].

<br />
Damaged teeth can be repaired by replacing the worn natural crown of the tooth with prosthetic [[Crown (dentistry)|crown]]s. Materials used to make crowns vary; some are less prone to breaking than others, and can last longer. Porcelain fused to metal crowns may be used in the [[anterior]] (front) of the mouth; in the [[posterior]], full gold crowns are preferred. All porcelain crowns are now becoming more and more common and work well for both anterior and posterior restorations. To protect the new crowns and dental implants, an [[occlusion|occlusal]] guard should be fabricated to wear during sleep.

Overview

Bruxism is defined as repeated involuntary grinding and clenching of teeth which can occur either diurnal or nocturnally. In 1907, Marie Pielkiewics coined the French term 'La Bruxomanie" for bruxism. Bruxism can be classified into awake bruxism and sleep bruxism based on the physiological sleep status of the individual. The etiology of bruxism can be categorized into three groups:psychosocial factors, peripheral factors, and pathophysiological factors. Multifactorial etiology causes involving brain neurotransmitters or basal ganglia. Bruxism affects men and women equally. Factors associated with an increased risk of bruxism include obstructive sleep apnea, alcohol abuse, caffeine intake, smoking, and anxiety. The symptoms of bruxism usually develop in the first decade of life, and start with the appearance of the first primary upper and lower anterior teeth. Common complications of bruxism are tooth wear, and tooth hypersensitivity. Bruxism is primarily diagnosed based on the clinical presentation. History of complaints of disturbance from the clicking or grating sound by the accompanied partners. The most common symptoms of bruxism include involuntary rhythmic contractions of the masticator muscles during sleep. Removal of any offending agent responsible for bruxism is the primary step in the management. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment in the management of bruxism.

Historical Perspective

  • In 1907, Marie Pielkiewics coined the French term 'La Bruxomanie" for bruxism. [1]
  • In 1931, Frohman first coined the English term bruxism.

Classification

Bruxism can be classified into awake bruxism and sleep bruxism based on the physiological sleep status of the individual.[2][3]

Awake Bruxism/Diurnal Bruxism Sleep Bruxism/Nocturnal Bruxism
Day Time /Awake Sleep
Semi-Voluntary Stereotyped
Clenching predominant Teeth grinding
Definitions
American Academy of Orofacial Pain (2008) Diurnal or nocturnal parafunctional activity including clenching, bracing, gnashing, and grinding of the teeth. I
The Academy of Prosthodontics (2005)
  • 1. The parafunctional grinding of teeth.
  • 2. An oral habit consisting of involuntary rhythmic or spasmodic non-functional gnashing, grinding or clenching of teeth, in other than chewing movements of the mandible, which may lead to occlusal trauma – called also tooth grinding, occlusal neurosis
The International Classification of Sleep Disorders (2005) Sleep-related bruxism is an oral activity characterized by grinding or clenching of the teeth during sleep, usually associated with sleep arousals.

Causes

The etiology of bruxism can be categorized into three groups: psychosocial factors, peripheral factors, and pathophysiological factors.[3]

Etiology of Bruxism
Psychological Common psychological factors responsible for bruxism include:
Peripheral
Pathological

Pathophysiology

  • Bruxism is caused by the activation of reflexive chewing activity[4]
  • Chewing is a neuromuscular activity that is controlled by the reflex nerve pathways.
  • During sleep, the reflex part is active while the higher control is inactive, resulting in bruxism.
  • As stated, bruxism is considered to have multifactorial etiology. Multifactorial etiology causes involving brain neurotransmitters or basal ganglia.
  • Pathophysiological Factors
    • As bruxism often occurs during sleep, the physiology of sleep has been studied extensively, especially the ‘arousal response’, in search of possible causes of a disorder.[4]
    • Arousal response is a sudden change in the depth of the sleep during which the individual either arrives in the lighter sleep stage or actually wakes up.
    • Such a response is accompanied by gross body movements, increased heart rate, respiratory changes, and increased muscle activity.
    • It is derived that disturbances in the central neurotransmitter system may be involved in the etiology of bruxism.
    • It is hypothesized that the direct and indirect pathways of the basal ganglion, a group of five subcortical nuclei that are involved in the coordination of movements, is disturbed in bruxer.
    • The direct output pathway goes directly from the stratum to the thalamus from where afferent signals project to the cerebral cortex. The indirect pathway, on the other hand, passes by several other nuclei before reaching it to the thalamus.
    • If there is an imbalance between the pathways, movement disorder results like Parkinson’s disease.
    • The imbalance occurs with the disturbances in the dopamine-mediated transmission of an action potential. In the case of bruxism there may be an imbalance in both pathways.
    • Acute use of dopamine precursors like L-dopa inhibits bruxism activity and chronic long-term use of l-dopa results in increased bruxism activity. SSRTs (serotonin reuptake inhibitors), which exert an indirect influence on the dopaminergic system, may cause bruxism after long-term use.
    • Amphetamine, which increases the dopamine concentration by facilitating its release has been observed to increase bruxism.
    • Nicotine stimulates central dopaminergic activities, which might explain the finding that cigarette smokers report bruxism two times more than the nonsmokers.
  • Psychosocial Factors
    • There is no proper description of conclusive nature of psychological factors role in bruxism because of the absence of large scale longitudinal trials.

Associated Factors


Epidemiology and Demographics

Bruxism often occurs during sleep and can even occur during short naps. Bruxism is one of the most common sleep disorders: 30 to 40 million Americans grind their teeth during sleep.

Gender

Age

  • Bruxism commonly affects individuals younger than 6 years of age and its incidence declines as age increases.

Screening

There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for bruxism.

Risk Factors

Factors associated with an increased risk of bruxism include:
