Brief summary

Bruxism is a non-functional repetitive jaw-muscle activity characterized by grinding or clenching the teeth. Bruxism, characterized by the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth, is a prevalent parafunctional habit affecting individuals of all ages. Stress, anxiety, and depression are the psychological factors most commonly associated with the presence of bruxism.

Detailed description

Bruxism, characterized by the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth, is a prevalent parafunctional habit affecting individuals of all ages. Although the etiology is not known exactly, it has been suggested that bruxism is a multifactorial disorder. Periodontitis, a prevalent inflammatory condition affecting the periodontium, has been linked to bruxism in several studies. The coexistence of bruxism and periodontitis poses unique challenges in clinical management of periodontitis. Also, as periodontitis became chronic, the occurrence of depression increased. Stress, anxiety, and depression are the psychological factors most commonly associated with the presence of bruxism. Therefore, this study aims to investigate impact of subgingival instrumentation on psychological distress and mental health status in bruxers with periodontitis.

Interventions

All the participants will undergo scaling and root planning with hand scalers, curettes and ultrasonic scaler.
