No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study aims to investigate the association between periodontitis Stage III and IV and the intensity and duration of sleep bruxism episodes. Surface electromyography (EMG) of the masseter muscle will be used to instrumentally assess sleep bruxism in patients with and without periodontal disease

Conditions

  • Bruxism
  • Periodontitis
  • Sleep Bruxism

Interventions

DEVICE

Surface Electromyography (dia-BRUXO)

Participants will undergo 24-hour surface electromyographic recording of the left masseter muscle using the dia-BRUXO portable device to quantify sleep bruxism activity through Bruxism Work Index (BWI) and Bruxism Time Index (BTI).
