Effect of sleep restriction for bruxism events

Key Points

• This research aims to evaluate the impact of sleep restriction on bruxism events.
• Participants underwent a controlled sleep restriction schedule.
• Bruxism events were monitored before and after the intervention.
• Physiological stress responses were assessed throughout the study.
• Significant increase in bruxism events during sleep restriction (p<0.01).
• Higher stress levels correlated with increased bruxism occurrences (OR 3.5, 95% CI 2.0-5.5, p<0.001).
• Improvements in sleep quality showed a reduction in bruxism events.
