“…Increased levels of emotional stress cause an increase in the muscle tone in the head and neck as well as the level of non-functional muscle activity, such as bruxism and teeth clenching 28 . It is also reported that bruxism is related with disturbances in mood phenomenology, levels of activity, and cognitive functions which manifest themselves as alternating periods of reduced (depressed) and increased (manic) functions 29 . In addition, several hypothesis from the studies on neurotransmitter systems under the influence of medications may explain regarding association between bruxism and BD.…”

“…The presence of sleep-bruxism or internalizing behaviors may be used to mutually inform the presence of the other, as well as a potential trajectory for adverse conditions associated with them. For example, among adults, sleep-bruxism is associated with a multitude of adverse psychological symptoms [18,32,33]; child internalizing behaviors may be developmental precursors to psychological conditions that manifest in adulthood. Furthermore, parentally reported child sleep problems have been proposed to indicate a variety of problematic functional outcomes that include behavior and health [34].…”

Objectives-The aims for this study were to determine the prevalence of sleep-bruxism among young children, explore child behavior problems that may be associated with sleep-bruxism, and identify relations among sleep-bruxism, health problems, and neurocognitive performance.Methods-The current study was a retrospective analysis of parent report surveys, and behavioral and neurocognitive assessments. Parents of 1953 preschool and 2888 first grade children indicated their child's frequency of bruxism during sleep. A subsample of preschool children (n = 249) had additional behavioral, as well as neurocognitive assessments. Among the subsample, parents also reported on their child's health, and completed the Child Behavioral Checklist; children were administered the Differential Ability Scales, and Pre-Reading Abilities subtests of the Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment.Results-36.8% of preschoolers and 49.6% of first graders were reported to brux ≥ 1 time per week. Among the preschool subsample, bruxing was independently associated with increased internalizing behaviors (β = .17). Bruxism was also associated with increased health problems (β = .19), and increased health problems were associated with decreased neurocognitive performance (β = .22).Conclusions-The prevalence of sleep-bruxism was high. A dynamic and potentially clinically relevant relation exists among sleep-bruxism, internalizing behaviors, health, and neurocognition. Pediatric sleep-bruxism may serve as a sentinel marker for possible adverse health conditions, and signal a need for early intervention. These results support the need for an interdisciplinary approach to pediatric sleep medicine, dentistry, and psychology.

“…In females strong differences for stress sensitivity symptoms were noted. Results showed that bruxers appear to be more sensitive to stress than non-bruxers, indicating a need for studies on the subjective susceptibility to emotional factors (Manfredini, Ciapparelli, Dell'Osso, & Bosco, 2005).…”

“…Further studies were considered essential to clarify mechanisms underlying the association between bruxism and mood disorders (Manfredini, Ciapparelli et al, 2005). A spectrum approach was also used in a study on TMD patients in which a significantly higher prevalence of mood symptoms was found in myofascial pain patients (Manfredini, Bandettini di Poggio et al, 2004).…”

“…In a study (Manfredini, Landi et al, 2004) These indicators were also used by others (Pergamalian, Rudy, Zaki, & Greco, 2003). These criteria were modified in recent studies (Manfredini, Ciapparelli et al, 2005;Manfredini, Landi et al, 2005). Validated clinical diagnostic criteria based on data obtained from polysomnographic studies was considered to be as follows:…”

Introduction: Bruxism is an oral parafunctional habit involving clenching and grinding of the teeth that occurs mainly unconsciously, diurnally and nocturnally. It is considered an important contributory factor in the aetiology of myofascial pain (MFP) and temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The aetiology of bruxism is considered to be multifactorial, involving physiological and psychological factors. Statement of the problem: Do subthreshold symptoms of anxiety have an effect on bruxing behaviour? Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the subthreshold symptoms (subtle, prodromal, atypical and subclinical symptoms of which the severity precludes diagnosis as a disorder) of anxiety and bruxism in a sample of subjects using a spectrum model. Method: Firstly, a self report screening measure consisting of the Spielberger State Trait Anxiety Inventory (SSTAI); the Kessler-10 (K-10); demographic and bruxism criteria were used to determine levels of anxiety, stress and bruxism on a continuum. Secondly, in order to determine a bruxism score, a standardized clinical examination; intra-oral photographs and dental casts were used in the study. Thirdly, the diagnosis of bruxism according to specified criteria was performed.Results: Forty one percent (n = 12) of the sample of 29 subjects was diagnosed as bruxers. A possible relation between subthreshold symptoms of anxiety, stress and bruxism was observed in the results. In approximately half of the subjects with higher than average anxiety and stress scores, bruxism behaviour was found. Clinical significance: The dentist could play a role in recognizing that a patient may be experiencing stress or anxiety, expressed through bruxing behaviour and refer the patient for therapy or counseling. The treatment of bruxism could be complimented by therapy or counseling which focuses on addressing the subthreshold symptoms of anxiety. Conclusions: An understanding of v the psychological factors involved in the aetiology of bruxism could encourage a more holistic approach to the treatment of bruxism.
