Management of idiopathic sleep bruxism in children and adolescents: A systematic review of the literature.

Aim: Primary sleep bruxism (SB) affects between 6 and 30% of children and adolescents. Its frequency increases with age, reaching a peak at 10-14 years of age, after which it drops until adulthood. The treatment of SB has not been extensively documented, resulting in a lack of reference points and legitimate concerns for dentists in their everyday practice.
