The dental demolition derby: bruxism and its impact - part 3: repair and reconstruction

Abstract: Bruxism is a term that encompasses a range of presentations of rhythmic and repetitive muscular activity. For many, this is not a significant problem but for some, this behaviour leads to substantial impact and tissue damage that can be significant, compromising function and quality of life. This paper will review management methods for reconstructing the damaged dentition.

“…Nonetheless, some studies have reported a positive correlation between observed tooth wear and bruxism [30][31][32]. Moreover, some researchers and clinicians have attributed observed wear of anterior teeth/guidance of some of their patients to bruxism or bruxism and intrinsic acid, and these teeth were subsequently restored using dental composite materials [33,34] due to relative ease of repair of any subsequent damage caused by bruxism. Considering that bruxism can occur during the day (awake bruxism) or at night (sleep bruxism) [28,29], it is of great importance that the composite materials used for the restoration of the teeth of these bruxism patients have a high wear resistance and a low wear rate sensitivity to temperature so that any hot food/ drinks ingested will not result in high restoration wear.…”
