Overview

Observational study found severe bruxism correlates with insomnia and parasomnias, suggesting interconnected sleep issues.

Key Points

  • A significant correlation exists between the severity of bruxism and insomnia symptoms, with moderate to severe bruxism leading to more intense insomnia.
  • Participants reporting higher levels of bruxism were also more likely to experience parasomnias and dreams related to oral cavity concerns.
  • Statistical analysis utilized included Spearman’s correlation coefficients and chi-square tests to establish relationships among sleep disturbances.
  • These findings highlight a possible protective or risk factor role of bruxism on various sleep disorders in the examined population.
