Article Synopsis
  • Bruxism, a behavior linked to various health consequences, particularly affects children, but it can also serve as a protective factor against negative outcomes.
  • A longitudinal study followed 1,816 children from 2014 to 2019 to assess the incidence of sleep bruxism (SB) and dental wear, finding no increase in SB incidence but a significant risk (2.2 times higher) for dental wear in those affected.
  • The study concluded that children with sleep bruxism typically continued this behavior through the years and experienced higher levels of dental wear, indicating a consistent association with related health issues.

This study aimed to answer the following question: What is the proportion of acceptance reported by parents toward pediatric behavior guidance techniques (BGTs)? Observational studies that evaluated parental acceptance of BGTs during pediatric dental visits among parents of non-special health care need (non-SHCN) and SHCN children were included. A search of the Cochrane Library, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences (LILACS), MedLine/PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, in addition to gray literature, was performed until October 2021. The Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Analytical Cross-Sectional Studies was used for quality assessment.
