Summary

Bruxism and temporomandibular joint dysfunction are common conditions today. The applications in the treatment of these disorders are limited. When the literature is examined, it has been determined that cervical stabilization exercises, which are frequently applied in physical therapy clinics for neck problems, have not been applied to bruxism before. For this reason, in this study, we will examine the effects of cervical stabilization exercises targeting deep cervical muscles on bruxism.

Conditions

  • Bruxism
  • Sleep Quality
  • Cervical Stabilization Exercise

Interventions

OTHER

Cervical spinal stabilization exercise

The cervical region is one of the most affected regions of the musculoskeletal system due to the intensive proprioceptors. Studies have shown that many position sense proprioceptors are over the deep group cervical muscles such as longus colitis and longus capitis. The deep group cervical muscles, which perform a dynamic ligament function, have an important role in maintaining the stability of the spine as well as the proprioceptive sense. In particular, proprioceptive receptors, which are commonly found in the deep suboccipital muscles; There are cervical and reflex connections with vestibular, visual and postural control systems.
