“…Similar observations have been reported by other authors. [45][46][47] The study results indicate that both selftreatment and KT combined with TE had a significant effect on the change in MAS sEMG at rest and during exercise (p < 0.05). How ever, it is important to note that the measure of power (partial eta squared (pes); ANOVA) obtained in the study was poor (RLX: pes = 0.007; MVC: pes = 0.074; %MVC: pes = 0.017).…”

“…Although less prevalent with age, bruxism can occur in the elderly and may be underrecognized (Manfredini et al, 2013;Câmara-Souza et al, 2019;Prakash et al, 2022;Benli and Özcan, 2023;Rauch et al, 2023). Common risk factors and comorbidities for bruxism include obstructive sleep apnea, use of psychoactive substances, neurologic and psychiatric disorders, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (Benli and Özcan, 2023).…”

Sleep-related movement disorders (SRMD) are common, often troublesome, conditions in the elderly. Although these disorders can impact people of all ages, there are different considerations when diagnosing and managing SRMD in the elderly. In this review, we discuss SRMD in the elderly, focusing on recent developments in the areas of restless leg syndrome, periodic limb movement disorder, nocturnal muscle cramps, and sleep-related bruxism. In addition to reviewing these entities more generally, we highlight key considerations in addressing these in conditions in older adults.

“…Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) related symptoms could refer to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) discomfort, masticatory muscles impairments, difficulties in opening the jaw, and TMJ noises [1]. TMDs can be related to ear symptoms, which are caused by a dysfunction in the masticatory system [2].…”

Background and aims. This study aimed at evaluating the etiology and treatment challenges of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). Methods. 160 subjects with TMDs, 38 males (23.8%) and 122 females (76.3%) were studied. A personalized coefficient was designated, which included the resolution of the main symptom, correction of secondary symptoms, patient collaboration (emotional parameter), treatment duration, and cost. Results. The most frequent cause for consultation was muscle impairment (42.5%), or limitation of mouth opening, followed by joint impairment (23.1%). Muscle pain was noticed, particularly in the masseter (57.5%) and lateral pterygoid muscles (51.9%). Tooth pain or gingival retraction was frequently associated with tooth wear (48.1%) and dental abfraction (31.3%). Remote symptomatology was dominated by otologic symptomatology. Iatrogenic etiology was highest (69.4%), followed by untreated missing teeth (66.9%). Treatment options included muscle relaxation, occlusal balancing (equilibration), kinesitherapy, medication, and swallowing re-education. Most patients benefited from four to seven different types of therapy, which resulted in a higher cost and a longer and more uncomfortable treatment. The primary symptom was relieved in 82.3% of cases, with recurrence occurring in 15.7%. Conclusion. The treatment of temporomandibular joint dysfunction is time-consuming, demanding, and intricate. Most patients required four to seven different types of therapy, which increased the expense, treatment duration, and suffering.
