Analysis of the sleep period and the amount of habitual snoring in individuals with sleep bruxism

Abstract

Background: The literature does not report any association between habitual snoring and sleep bruxism, but these situations can be a reason for frequent complaints of individuals, impairing the quality of life. This study was performed to investigate the sleep period and amount of habitual snoring in individuals with sleep bruxism observing expiratory, inspiratory, and mixed snoring. Material and Methods: A total of 90 individuals were screened and divided into the following groups: with sleep bruxism (n=45) and those without sleep bruxism (n=45). Single night sleep polysomnography was performed to diagnose sleep bruxism, quantify habitual snoring and sleep period. The results were tabulated and submitted to a Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) to compare the means of the two independent groups, considering the affected diagnosis of sleep bruxism, snoring (independent variables) and age as covariate. For the post hoc, was used correcting for multiple comparisons (Bonferroni test, P<.05). Results: There was statistically significant difference among the groups (p=.001) in the sleep period, in that individuals with sleep bruxism slept for a longer duration (with sleep bruxism group: 460 minutes and without sleep bruxism group: 401 minutes). There were no

The Relationship between Simple Snoring and Sleep Bruxism: A Polysomnographic Study

“…Palinkas et al suggested that individuals with SB experience an increased amount of habitual snoring during sleep. The authors recorded the number of inspiratory, expiratory, and mixed snores but did not evaluate the loudness of snores [48]. In the current study, we examined the relationship between SS and SB and their parameters (intensity, frequency, types, and sleep position).…”

Influence of age and gender on sleep bruxism and snoring in non‐apneic snoring patients: A polysomnographic study

“…The relationship between snoring and SB has not yet been thoroughly studied. Palinkas et al investigated the sleep period and the amount of habitual snoring in individuals with SB, and they concluded that sleep bruxers tended to have an increased amount of habitual snoring (Palinkas et al., 2019). Carra et al also indicated a mandibular advancement appliance as a common therapeutic pathway for both snoring and SB (Carra, Huynh, El‐Khatib, Remise, & Lavigne, 2013).…”
