| Research Abstract |
The 37 volunteers (21 males, 16 females; mean age: 22.8±1.2 years) were used to investigate the associations between nocturnal masseter muscle EMG activity and TMD symptoms upon waking in the morning orawareness of sleep bruxism (SB). As a result, we found that TMD symptoms upon waking in the morning are associated with nocturnal masseter muscle EMG activity inhealthy subjects, and it was suggested that questionnaires regarding TMD symptoms are useful for detecting SB.
