Unlabelled: Nocturnal bruxism is a common oromandibular movement disorder highly prevalent in children, but its pathophysiological mechanism has not been fully explained. Iatrogenic sleep bruxism has been described following treatment with several psychotropic medications. However, no case of antihistamine-induced bruxism has been reported to date. Herein, we describe a 4-year-old child who experienced nocturnal bruxism during treatment for bronchospasm and rhinitis with the antihistamine ketotifen. Drug rechallenge was also performed.
Conclusion: The present case adds useful information to our knowledge of bruxism. Complex and poorly understood interactions between multiple central nervous system neurotransmitters, such as histamine, serotonin, and dopamine, are involved.

Self -reported bruxism in patients undergoing Orthodontic treatment - a cross-sectional study.
BMC Oral Health
December 2024
Department of Surgery, Program Director Orthodontics Residency Program, Section of Dentistry, The Aga Khan University Hospital, Stadium Road, P.O Box 3500, Karachi, 74800, Pakistan.
Background: Orthodontic treatment involves manipulation of tooth position that can temporarily lead to occlusal interferences capable of inducing bruxism. The objectives of this study were to determine the self-reported incidence of bruxism and its association with factors such as facial type, divergence, skeletal and dental malocclusions in orthodontic patients.
Materials And Methods: 80 patients who underwent a minimum of six months of orthodontic treatment were surveyed using a validated self-reported bruxism questionnaire for the presence or absence of bruxism.

Department and Clinic of Internal Medicine, Occupational Diseases, Hypertension and Clinical Oncology, Wroclaw Medical University, Wroclaw, Poland.
Background: Migraine is the most common disabling headache disorder in the world. Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are a group of conditions characterized by pain/dysfunction of masticatory muscles or their associated structures. There is a lack of studies concerning the association between sleep disorders such as sleep bruxism (SB), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), migraine, and TMD, despite the increased prevalence of these conditions in TMD patients.

Unlabelled: The prevalence of temporomandibular disorder (TMD) in patients with (dentofacial deformities) DFD is high, indicating a multifaceted relationship between physical and psychosocial factors.
Objective: To identify clusters of patients with DFD based on variables related to TMD, psychological aspects, somatization, oral habits, and sleep.
Method: Ninety-two patients with DFD were evaluated before orthognathic surgery according to demographic data, facial profile, presence of painful TMD (DC/TMD), psychological aspects, oral habits, comorbidities, substance use, and sleep quality.

Department of Prosthodontics and Periodontology, Piracicaba Dental School, University of Campinas, Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brazil.
Objective: This systematic review determined whether occlusal appliance use influences the sleep of individuals with sleep bruxism.
Material And Methods: Six databases and the gray literature were searched to identify randomized and non-randomized clinical trials comparing slow wave sleep and sleep quality of sleep bruxers before and after occlusal appliance use. The Risk of Bias was assessed using Cochrane tools and Meta-analyses were performed to compare data.
Bruxism, Lifestyle, Anxiety, and Sleep Impairment in Dental Students.

December 2024
Department of Stomatology, Universidade Federal do Paraná, Curitiba, PR, Brazil.
The aim of this study was to verify the correlation of self-reported sleep and awake bruxism with demographic characteristics, oral behaviors, anxiety, temporomandibular disorder (TMD) signs and symptoms, sleep quality, and orthodontic treatment history in dental students. A total of 104 students of Dentistry located in Paraná (South Brazilian State) answered the following self-administered questionnaires: Oral Behavior Checklist, State Anxiety Inventory, TMD signs and symptoms questionnaire, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Associations between possible awake bruxism (AB) and sleep bruxism (SB) with sleep quality, anxiety, and TMD were analyzed by Poisson Regression with robust variance.
