This comprehensive evidence-based guide to bruxism provides answers to many
questions arising in everyday dental practice. The first part reviews general bruxism
knowledge as well as guidelines for diagnosis, sleep physiology, etiology, peripheral and emotional factors, movement disorders, and bruxism in children.
The second part is devoted to the effects of bruxism on the different components
of the masticatory system and explores its relationship to pain. The final part
addresses the various aspects of bruxism treatment—both pharmacologic and
clinical management—as well as particulars of restoration specific to the bruxing
patient, including recommended dental materials, considerations for use of
implant-supported prostheses, and an overview of complex oral restoration.
Researchers, students, and specialists will benefit from the in-depth analysis of
bruxism and its treatment and the extensive, up-to-date bibliographies.
