Video abstract of review paper "Sleep bruxism: challenges and restorative solutions" published in the open access journal Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dentistry by Cristiane Machado Mengatto, Fábio Herrmann Coelho-de-Souza and Oswaldo Baptista de Souza Junior.
Abstract: Bruxism is a parafunctional activity related to clenching or grinding the teeth and tooth wear can be a consequence of sleep bruxism (SB). Management of severe tooth wear due to SB is a challenging situation because of the common reduced amount of remaining dental structure and loss of vertical dimension of occlusion. Rationale for the planning of oral rehabilitation of patients with SB presenting severe tooth wear should rely on evidence-based approaches; however, few studies have discussed properties of dental materials for SB rehabilitation and how to cosmetically manage severe tooth wear. This review aimed to provide an overview into bruxism cosmetic rehabilitation and how this can be implemented with good outcomes for the patient.
