Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the performance of botulinum toxin (BTX) injections for bruxism. Participants were divided into two groups according to the duration of the symptoms. The main question is whether BTX should be reserved for long-standing bruxism where the conventional methods failed or indicated as a first-line treatment. The investigator also compared the required doses and the frequency of treatment sessions between these two groups for a complete recovery.

Interventions

OTHER

Abobotulinumtoxin A injection for bruxism

Trigger points were detected with careful palpating of the masticatory muscles (masseter and temporalis muscles) of patients suffering from bruxism. Each trigger point received 0,05 lm ol reconstituted solution of Abobotulinumtoxin A. Dysport (Ipsen Pharma, Germany) was reconstituted with 0.9% sodium chloride solution so that 0.1 ml corresponded to 25 U.
