Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The main objective of the study is to evaluate if injections with botulinum toxin in persons with cerebral palsy and severe bruxism/parafunction in masticatory muscles reduce the bite force without any adverse effects. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives are: - To evaluate if it is possible to identify responders after one injection - Patient-reported outcomes including bruxism, pain, chewing- and speech ability and oral health-quality of life - To evaluate mandibular movements in function, before and after injcection;Primary end point(s): - Bite force, measured with a bite fork, peak at maximal clenching during 3 sec, mean of 3 tests. - Bite force as "chewing", measured with a bite fork, mean of 5 tests.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 4, 12 and 16 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Patient Reported Outcomes assessed by VAS and a swedish version of General Oral Health Assessment Index, GOHAI. - Mandibular jaw mowement, measured with SmartEye Pro - MME;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 4, 12 and 16 weeks.
