“…It has been suggested that subjects with higher levels of anxiety, depression, and increased disclusion time may have a greater predilection for bruxism ( 49 ). A positive relationship was found between self-reported AB and anxiety symptoms, whereas a similar relationship was not observed for SB ( 50 ).…”

IntroductionCausal relationships between psychopathological symptoms, personality traits, coping mechanisms, and sleep bruxism (SB) were studied in the past, giving inconsistent results mostly based on self-assessment evaluations. This polysomnography-based cross-sectional study aimed to explore the relationships between severe SB, personality traits (according to the Big Five model), and coping strategies with objective polysomnographic verification.MethodologyThe study included 66 participants divided into severe SB (SSB) (n=32) and no or mild SB (n=34) groups based on video-polysomnography performed in the sleep laboratory. Questionnaire assessment included the use of the Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory, Mini-COPE, International Personality Item Pool Big Five Markers 20-Item version, and Oral Behavior Checklist.ResultsParticipants with SSB presented with fewer self-reported anxiety (p=0.008) and depressive (p=0.01) symptoms than the non- or mild-SB groups. The SSB group scored significantly higher in Big Five personal traits such as extraversion (p=0.007), emotional stability (p=0.013), and intellect (p=0.004), while regarding coping strategies, the SSB group was less likely to use negative strategies: self-distraction (p=0.036), denial (p=0.006), venting (p=0.03), behavioral disengagement (p=0.046), and self-blame (p=0.003), and turning to religion (p=0.041). The intensity of oral parafunctional behaviors was comparable in both groups (p=0.054). Emotional stability was a moderate protective factor (p=0.004), and the self-blame strategy was a strong risk factor (p<0.001) for increased oral parafunctional behavior intensity. Phasic activity negatively correlated with anxiety symptom severity (p=0.005), whereas tonic (p=0.122) and mixed (p=0.053) phenotypes did not. SB intensity was a protective factor against anxiety symptoms (p=0.016).ConclusionIn terms of psychopathology, severe sleep bruxers tend to present less severe anxiety and depressive symptoms, while some of their personality traits (extraversion, emotional stability, and intellect) were more strongly pronounced. SSB is possibly related to the lesser use of the “maladaptive” coping strategies and there were no specific coping strategies preferred by SSB participants, compared to the other group. These observations require further studies, as it should be determined whether SB (especially phasic activity) might be a form of a somatization/functional disorder. Further research should focus on the psychogenic background of oral parafunctional behaviors, which occur more often in less emotionally stable personalities and in people using self-blame coping strategies.

“…This is supported by the findings of Hashemipour's (2021) study, which conducted a study of ages 34-60 years and found that the increasing age of the respondents, the less the incidence of bruxism. 11,15 Bruxism in women is higher than in men because bruxism has a relationship with psychological conditions. Bruxism is a manifestation of psychological conditions.…”

Background: Anxiety disorder is a psychological condition that includes worry, anxiety, and restlessness. The prevalence of emotional anxiety disorders in Indonesia is 9.9%, anxiety can cause somatic symptoms causing irritability, muscle tension and restlessness which results in the appearance of parafunctional oral activities such as bruxism. Bruxism is a bad habit of grinding and clenching teeth excessively inadvertently which involves the activity of the masticatory muscles, resulting in clinical problems in the involved teeth, such as attrition, tooth fracture, and increased sensitivity and degree of tooth mobility, exostosis and torus of the jawbone, hypertrophy of the masticatory muscles, periodontal tissue damage, and causes headaches and temporomandibular joint damage Purpose: The purpose of the literature study was to determine the relationship between anxiety and bruxism in adults Material and Methods: All reviewed articles were obtained from searching Google Scholar, Pubmed and Science Direct data sources which have a maximum journal publication time of 10 years. Results: The review was conducted in 22 journals that were responding with the inclusion criteria such as journals available in the form of full text in Indonesian or English, the subjects of the journal were people who have an adult age suffering from anxiety and bruxism. Conclusion: there is a relation between anxiety and bruxism in adult.Keywords: Adult, Anxiety, Bruxism.

Occlusal analysis is important to analyze any disharmony in occlusion. Atraumatic dental occlusion leads to evolution of T-scan. T-scan gives a valuable procedure for clinical assessment and perception of occlusal problems. T-scan can also be used in periodontitis patients for checking the occlusal pattern. Occlusal problems and periodontal disease relationship remains controversial. Further research is needed to determine whether occlusal adjustment is necessary for periodontal treatment. The main aim of the study was to assess the occlusal pattern using T-scan in periodontitis patients. Thirty periodontitis subjects were taken and checked for occlusion using T-scan. The subject's age group was 35–55 years. The study included 15 males and 15 females. Plaque index, gingival index, attachment loss, probing depth, centric occlusion (CO), protrusion, right lateral, and left lateral were the parameters studied. Occlusal adjustments were needed to decrease and dissipate the abnormal occlusal forces. The significance of statistical tests for various movements are as follows: CO (right and left) (P = 0.077) P > 0.05; protrusion (right and left) (P = 0.09) P > 0.05; left side lateral (right side and left side) (P = 0.01) P < 0.05; right lateral (right side and left side) (P = 0.00) P < 0.05. CO and protrusion (right, left) for males and females are not significant. Left lateral and right lateral (right, left) for males and females were significant. The T-scan manages adequate specificity and sensitivity. Hence, these act as a distinctive tool for diagnosis and better unreliable when used intraorally. The T-scan method is definitely a valuable tool for examining and evaluating the occlusal contacts during maximal intercuspation.
