: The purpose of this systematic review was to assess the global prevalence of sleep bruxism and awake bruxism in pediatric and adult populations. : This systematic review was conducted by analyzing studies published from 2003 to 2023. The following keyword combination was utilized: prevalence, epidemiology, population, and bruxism.

- The study aimed to explore the relationship between refractive errors (like myopia), muscle thickness, and bioelectrical activity in jaw and neck muscles.
- Using advanced equipment, researchers measured muscle activity and thickness in participants with myopia.
- Findings revealed that greater myopia is linked to increased resting tension and thickness in the masseter muscle, alongside decreased activity in the digastric muscle.
This study investigates the influence of soft stabilization splints on electromyographic patterns in masticatory and neck muscles in healthy women. A total of 70 healthy women were qualified for the research. The resting and clenching electromyographic patterns of the temporalis (TA), masseter (MM), digastric (DA), and sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscles were measured using the BioEMG III™ apparatus.

However, no studies link medical mask-wearing with masticatory muscle activity in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). Therefore, this study aims to compare electromyographic patterns while wearing a medical mask between women with and without temporomandibular disorders.

- This study investigates the relationship between muscle thickness and activity in the jaw and neck and various eye measurements, focusing on healthy women compared to those with myopia.
- The participant group included 21 women with myopia aged 24 and 19 healthy women with a mean age of 23, who underwent various diagnostic tests using specialized equipment.
- Findings suggest that differences in muscle thickness and electrical activity are linked to refractive errors, with specific correlations between jaw muscle activity and eye dimensions in women with myopia.
The objective of this study was to analyze the influence of wearing a medical mask on masticatory and neck muscle activity in healthy young women. We recruited 66 healthy women aged from 18 to 30 years (mean 23.6 ± 2.
