본 연구는 교근비대증을 주소로 내원한 환자들을 대상으로 보툴리눔 독소 치료 과정에 이갈이 여부에 따른 최대 교합력 변화 차이와 심리 변화 차이를 파악하고자 하는데 그 목적이 있다. 연구대상은 교근비대증을 주소로 내원한 20세 이상의 여성을 대상으로 이갈이가 있는 이갈이군 10명과 이갈이가 없는 비이갈이군 10명으로 구성하였으며 대상자들에게는 보툴리눔 독소 A를 주입하였다. 주입하기 전, 주입 후 2주, 4주, 8주, 12주 동안 최대 교합력을 측정하고 심리요인 변화 정도를 확인하기 위하여 SCL-90-R을 이용하여 우울과 불안의 변화를 파악하였다. 이갈이군과 비이갈이군은 보툴리눔 독소 A의 치료에 있어 좌, 우 각각 4주째 교합력의 최대 감소 효과가 있었고 8주째부터는 원래의 교합력을 회복하는 변화를 보였다. 이갈이군은 우울과 불안에서 기간의 변화에 따른 통계적 차이를 확인할 수 있으며 우울과 불안이 가장 악화되는 8주째에 교합력도 원래의 상태로 회복하는 변화를 보여 우울과 불안으로 인한 근수축이 이악물기를 유발하여 보툴리눔 독소 A의 치료 기간을 단축시키는 것으로 생각된다. 이에 비해 비이갈이군에서 우울은 기간에 따른 변화는 있었으나 통계적으로 유의하지는 않았으며 최대 교합력의 변화도 8주째부터 회복은 하였으나 그 변화의 크기가 이갈이 집단과 달리 긴 시간을 가지고 변화하였다. 우울과 불안은 이갈이에 대한 보툴리눔 독소 A의 치료 과정에 심리 요인의 변화로 인하여 약물 치료 기간을 단축시키는 영향을 미칠 것으로 생각되며 치료에는 기능적 요소들과 함께 다면적인 심리 요인도 함께 반영하여 치료계획을 세운다면 약물에만 의존하여 무분별하게 남용되는 약물을 최소화하고 정신건강에도 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate treatment effectiveness of TENS and bite plane for bruxism and TMJ dysfunction patients. The electromyograms were made on males aged 23 to 25 with sound stomatognathic system, 5 males bruxism aged 24 to 27, and 1 male and 4 females TMJ dysfunction patients (right TMJ pain) aged 14 to 33. The electromyographic study was limited to the middle of masseter muscle and anterior temporal muscle. The electromyographic study was carried out with 8-channel EM2 (Myotronics Research Inc.) and was taken 5 mandibular positions of clinical rest position, clench intercuspal position, clench protruded, cluch right, clench left. The 2 pairs of surface electrodes were used exactly, with the ear lobe as reference point. The recording were subjected to determine the mean voltage. The results were as follows; 1. In the clinical rest position, the muscle activities of bruxism and TMJ dysfunction patients were higher than those of normal at the before treatment, but that were lower or similar to those of normal at the TENS after and after bite plane wearing. 2. In the clench I.C.P., the muscle activities of TMJ dysfunction patients were decreased as the order of the before treatment, after TENS, after occlusal bite plane wearing, but those of bruxism were irregular. 3. In the clench right and the clench left, the muscle activities of the middle of masseter muscle of the non-working side of bruxism were higher than those of the working side at the before treatment and after TENS, but the muscle activities of after occlusal bite plane wearing were similar to those of the normal. 4. In the clench right and the clench left, the muscle activities of the middle of masseter muscle and anterior temporal muscle of the working side of TMJ dysfunction patients were higher than those of non-working side as like the normal at the before treatment, after TENS, and after occlusal bite plane wearing.

이갈이는 이를 갈거나 악무는 것을 포함하는 부기능적인 행위를 말하며 광범위하게는 주간 및 야간에 나타나는 것을 모두 포함한다. 이갈이의 원인으로는 기본적으로 말초성 요인과 중추성 요인으로 나누어 살펴볼 수 있는데 현재까지의 연구 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 중추성 요인이 주로 작용하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 이갈이는 교모, 치경부 미세파절, 교근 비대, 교근 및 측두근의 통증, 턱관절의 통증 및 움직임의 제한, 치아 및 수복물 파절, 치수염, 외상성 교합 등을 유발 할 수 있고 특히 이악물기의 경우 협점막 압흔이나 협점막 백선 또는, 혀의 측면에 압흔 등을 유발한다. 이갈이의 정확한 진단을 위해 구강내 장치, 근전도, 수면다원검사 등을 이용하며 미국수면장애학회의 경우 이갈이의 임상 진단 기준을 제시하고 있다. 그러나 아직까지 이갈이의 명확한 원인이 밝혀져 있지 않기 때문에 치료법의 선택은 신중하여야 한다. 이갈이가 중등도 이상이고 임상 증상이나 징후를 유발하는 경우에 이갈이를 관리하기 위한 방법으로는 위험 요인의 조절, 구강내 장치, 보툴리눔 독소 주사, 약물 치료, 바이오피드백 등이 있으며 구강내 장치 요법이 현재로서 가장 합리적인 방법이다. 이갈이 치료와 교근비대에 대한 심미적인 개선을 같이 원하는 환자에서는 보툴리눔 독소 주사 요법이 이용될 수 있다.

PURPOSE. Occlusal splints are commonly used to prevent tooth wear caused by bruxism. However, the effects of splints on occlusion are still unclear. Although it is rarely alluded in literature, splints can provoke severe occlusal alterations and other complications. This study was aimed to identify differences in the responses of individuals with bruxism and healthy individuals to a full-arch maxillary stabilization splint in terms of occlusal changes. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Occlusal contacts in 20 (5 male, 15 female) bruxism patients and 20 (5 male, 15 female) controls with normal occlusion were evaluated before and after occlusal splint therapy. T-Scan III, a computerized occlusal analysis system, was used to simultaneously measure occlusion and disclusion times as well as left-right and anterior-posterior contact distributions before splint therapy and 3 months after therapy. Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for statistical analyses (${\alpha}$=.05). RESULTS. No differences were found in the posterior contact of bruxism patients before and after stabilization splint treatment. However, differences in posterior contact were observed between bruxists and normal individuals prior to treatment, and this difference disappeared following treatment. CONCLUSION. The results of this study showed the use of a stabilization splint may not have an effect on occlusion. However, the area of posterior occlusal contact among bruxists was found to be greater than that of normal individuals. According to this study, the clinical use of splints may be harmless.

Objective: To compare the electromyographic activity of masseter and temporal muscles between bruxers and nonbruxers in adult and adolescent patients. Material and Methods: The samples composed of the surface electromyography (EMG) recordings obtained from the orthodontic patients. Sixty-eight patients who had bruxsim habit (43 female and 25 male) were divided into four groups according to their age and gender. Control groups consisted of 79 patients who had not bruxism habit. EMG of the masseter muscle and anterior temporal muscle were recorded before treatment in clenching at maximum intercuspation. The ratio of temporal and masseter muscle activity (T/M ratio) was compared between bruxers and nonbruxers in adult and adolescent patients. Results: EMG of masseter muscle and temporal muscle were significantly higher in adult male bruxism group than control. T/M ratio in adult male bruxism group was significantly lower than in adult male nonbruxism group. However, there was no significant difference in T/M ratio between adolescent bruxism group and adolescent nonbruxism group. Conclusions: The balance in the activity of the masseter and temporal muscles may not differ between bruxers and nonbruxers during adolescent periods. However, in adult period, the masseter muscle activity against temporal muscle is greater in males with bruxism habit compared to non-bruxer.

Purpose: This study aims to examine correlation between temporomandibular disorder and oral habits that have been known to cause temporomandibular disorder with both male and female undergraduates. Methods: To figure out correlation between temporomandibular disorder and oral habits, a survey was conducted to 500 students of two universities located in Daegu Metropolitan City and Gyeongsangbuk-do, and excluding the ones unreliably answered or indicating errors, total 427 (85.4%) out of 500 questionnaire sheets were used for final analysis. Results: Female students showed higher prevalence rates than male students in temporomandibular joint pain and temporomandibular joint clicking, and students having the lip biting habit, tongue thrust habit, or bruxism habit indicated a higher prevalence rate of temporomandibular joint pain than normal students. Also, students having the tongue thrust habit indicated a significantly higher prevalence rate of temporomandibular joint clicking than normal students not having it. And about trismus, students having the bruxism habit showed a significantly higher prevalence rate than normal students not having it. Conclusion: The findings imply that oral habits like lip biting, tongue thrust, or bruxism are closely related with temporomandibular joint pain, tongue thrust influences temporomandibular joint clicking, and bruxism does affect trismus.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the duration of the silent period of the masseter muscle in normal subjects after experimental bruxism. The material for this study consisted of 9 male subjects with an age range of 22-24 years who showed normal occlusion clinically and were free from any history or symptoms of temporomandibular joint dysfunction. A jaw-jerk was stimulated by tapping the mandibular symphysis during maximal voluntary clenching with a solenoid-driven hammer. And three separate silent period records were made from the left masseter muscle at the following times: at normal state, after experimental bruxism, 1 week after bruxism. The following conclusions were obtained: 1. The average value of the duration of masseteric silent period during maximal voluntary clenching was $33.62{\pm}1.86msec$ when tap force of approximate 650g was applied at normal state. 2. After experimental tooth grinding for 30 minutes, the duration of masseteric silent period increased to $46.29{\pm}4.40msec$. 3. Comparing the duration of silent period measured at normal state with that measured after 1 week, the duration of silent period showed reproducibility.
