Jaw tremor as a physiological biomarker of bruxism

Jaw tremor as a physiological biomarker of bruxism

Highlights • Patients with sleep bruxism show abnormal tremor of the jaw during a visually-guided bite force task. • The magnitude of ∼8 Hz jaw tremor and its modulation by dynamic bite force production separated patients from controls. • The spectral characteristics of force tremor and masseter EMG...

Description
Summary:Highlights • Patients with sleep bruxism show abnormal tremor of the jaw during a visually-guided bite force task. • The magnitude of ∼8 Hz jaw tremor and its modulation by dynamic bite force production separated patients from controls. • The spectral characteristics of force tremor and masseter EMG activity suggest that bruxism is marked by abnormal or mishandled periodontal feedback.
