Summary: The study aimed to assess the prevalence of awake and sleep bruxism in Dutch adolescents. Results showed that sleep bruxism is more common than awake bruxism, with higher percentages reported by women in both age groups. Sleep bruxism is more often found in high socio-economic status groups.

Summary: This study aimed to identify the prevalence of awake bruxism (AB) and found that the prevalence rate ranged from 16% to 32%. The clinical significance of studying this prevalence lies in the dentist's ability to provide comprehensive preventive approaches for patients.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the prevalence of sleep bruxism and its relationship with social and orofacial factors in children aged 3 to 5 years. Results showed that 28.9% of preschoolers had sleep bruxism, with the highest prevalence in boys (61.6%) at the age of 5 years (41.4%). Lip incompetence, open bite, crossbite, and overbite were found to be associated with sleep bruxism. These findings highlight the importance of considering orofacial characteristics and gender when assessing and managing sleep bruxism in preschool children.

Summary: This study investigated awake bruxism (AB) and sleep bruxism (SB) behaviors among dental students in Portugal during the COVID-19 confinement. The results showed an increase in reported AB and a decrease in reported SB during the confinement period. This suggests that the forced change in lifestyle due to COVID-19 has impacted bruxism behaviors among dental students.

Summary: This study found a significant association between TMD pain and self-reported frequency of awake bruxism, as well as between TMD dysfunction and frequent awake bruxism and occasional sleep bruxism. Multivariable analysis showed that TMD pain was significantly associated with TMD dysfunction and stress, while TMD dysfunction was only associated with TMD pain. Network analysis demonstrated that TMD pain acted as a bridge between awake bruxism, stress, and TMD dysfunction.

Summary: Psychosocial factors play an important role in the development of sleep and awake bruxism. The study found a relationship between emotional stress and bruxism in dental students, with higher levels of stress and bruxism in certain stages of education and in males.

Summary: This study investigated the associations of self-reported sleep bruxism with other sleep disorders and demographic, psychological, and lifestyle factors in the adult general population. The results showed that self-reported sleep bruxism was only significantly associated with sex, anxiety, and depression, while polysomnographically confirmed sleep bruxism was not associated with any of the included factors.

Summary: The study examined medications and addictive substances potentially inducing or aggravating bruxism, as well as medications potentially attenuating it. However, there is insufficient evidence-based data to draw definite conclusions regarding these effects.

Summary: Awake bruxism is different from sleep bruxism in terms of etiology and muscle activities. The use of ecological momentary assessment strategies and smartphone technologies has provided valuable data on the frequency of awake bruxism. Recent studies have found that healthy young adults have an average frequency of awake bruxism of 23-40%, and it is associated with certain psychological traits.

Summary: The study found that dental students have sleep bruxism and awake bruxism, which are related to chronotype profiles. Individuals with an eveningness chronotype profile are more likely to report possible awake bruxism, while those with a morningness chronotype profile are less likely. Temporomandibular disorder symptoms are particularly prevalent among students with an eveningness chronotype profile.

Summary: The recent use of ecological momentary assessment (EMA) smartphone-based strategies has allowed researchers to gather interesting data on the frequency of awake bruxism (AB) behaviors in natural environments. This systematic review identified 8 English-language studies that assessed AB behaviors using smartphone-based EMA. The results showed that AB behaviors ranged from 28.3% to 40% over one week using the same smartphone app, while a different EMA approach via WhatsApp reported an AB frequency of 58.6%. Despite methodological limitations, these studies provide a groundwork for future research on the epidemiology of awake bruxism behaviors.

Summary: A scoping review of English-language literature was conducted to investigate the relationship between sleep bruxism (SB) and temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), highlighting the varying findings between questionnaire/self-report studies and instrumental studies on the association with TMD pain. Future research should consider SB as a multifaceted motor behavior that requires evaluation across a continuum spectrum.

Summary: In the last two decades, socioeconomic inequalities in oral hygiene and periodontal status were observed in the Netherlands. Although the percentage of individuals with plaque-free and periodontal health increased, significant absolute and relative inequalities were still present in 2007 and 2013.

Summary: The validity of patients' self-report and electronic patient records in terms of time spent per visit and types of treatment involved were assessed. The results showed that data collection on time using self-report and electronic patient records were valid, while data collection on treatment and professionals involved were not sufficiently valid.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the association between maternal vitamin D status during pregnancy and dental abnormalities in children. The results showed that insufficient maternal serum vitamin D in mid-pregnancy was associated with a higher number of affected teeth among children with MIH. Further research is needed to confirm these findings.

Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of an Oral Care Program on home care nurses' attitudes and knowledge, as well as on the oral health of older people. The program significantly improved the oral health of older people, particularly those with full dentures. It also improved the knowledge and attitude of home care nurses, fitting well with their daily work routines. Individual-centered care plans for older people, education of home care nurses, and the expertise of dental hygienists added value to home care nursing.

Summary: The prevalence of dental caries among adults in Central Norway has declined over the past 45 years, but untreated dentine caries remains common and evenly distributed across all age groups. Initial caries particularly affect younger individuals, highlighting the need to evaluate prevention strategies and access to dental services.
