“…Insomnia has been reported in 37% of patients seeking care at the orofacial pain unit at the University of Zurich 10 . Similarly, a sleep questionnaire‐based study conducted with more than 3000 patients with predominantly TMD diagnosis reported significant associations between sleep deprivation and OFP 33 . The average pain intensity was similar to the current study, but the sleep indices were varied (5% took medication for sleep vs 50% in the present study).…”

“…It is possible to sleep problems were more prevalent in our TMD cohort than that of Lee et al 33 Sleep problems were greater in patients presenting with primary headaches in the orofacial region, particularly TACs. However, OFP patients with neurovascular pain often present with higher pain levels and have more bodily complaints, 16 and once the level of experienced pain intensity was accounted for, the presence of primary headache disorder was not a significant correlate of pain-related sleep disturbances.…”

BackgroundSleep and pain have a reciprocal relationship, interacting with psychosocial aspects including depression, anxiety, somatization and significant stressful events.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess patients with oro‐facial pain (OFP) and related sleep disturbances and determine the strongest psychosocial correlates.MethodsA cross‐sectional study of anonymized data of consecutive patients with OFP {January 2019 and February 2020} were analysed. Diagnostic and Axis‐II data were integrated to assess the relationship between sleep disturbances, measured using Chronic Pain Sleep Inventory, and demographic factors, clinical comorbidities, recent stressful events, pain severity and pain‐ and psychological‐related function.ResultsFive out of six patients with OFP were presented with pain‐related sleep disturbances. Sleep problems were enhanced in patients with primary oro‐facial headache compared with other OFP conditions. However, once the level of pain intensity and interference was accounted for, primary headache, was not a significant correlate of pain‐related sleep disturbances. Multivariate analysis revealed (average) pain severity and pain interference were both significantly associated with sleep problems. There were also significant independent associations of sleep problems with somatization levels and reported experience of recent stressful events.ConclusionIdentifying sleep problems as a part of OFP management may be beneficial and could result in better management outcomes.

“…), so are in a condition of stress and generalized fear [ 8 , 9 , 10 ]. The functional limitation due to temporomandibular dysfunction is often already accompanied by symptoms such as pain, and its therapeutic approach can itself stimulate the perception of pain and discomfort [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ]. Even orthodontic therapy, regardless of the type of device used, is often perceived by patients as a painful and unpleasant [ 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ].…”

In recent years, vibrational devices have been introduced in order to reduce patient discomfort in some situations such as orofacial pain, orthodontic therapy, and injection of local anaesthetics. This article aims to review the clinical experience given by the use of these devices in local anaesthesia. The literature search was carried out on the main scientific databases for articles up to November 2022. Eligibility criteria were established, and pertinent articles selected. The results were classified by author, year, type of study, sample size and characteristics, purpose of use, type of vibrational device used, protocol used, and outcomes. Nine relevant articles were found. These are split mouth randomized clinical trials which evaluate the reduction in pain perception with different devices and different protocols of use in children, during procedures which require local analgesia by injection, compared with traditional local anaesthesia with premedication based on anaesthetic gels. Different objective and subjective scales of pain and discomfort perception were used. Although results are promising, some data, such as those relating to vibrational intensity and frequency, are not clear. Evaluations on samples varying by age and context of use are necessary to fully define the indications for this type of aid during oral rehabilitation procedures.

“…Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is a common orofacial pain condition and major cause of nondental orofacial pain. 1,2 Associated clinical problems involve the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), masticatory muscles, adjacent structures and TMJ-related headache conditions. [3][4][5] The main signs and symptoms involve TMJ pain, muscle pain, sound (clicking, popping, crepitus), jaw movement limitations, and headache.…”

Purpose: There are many studies on the indications and efficacy of splint therapy commonly used in patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD). However, there have been no studies on the splint weaning in terms of the splint use tapering period in relation to symptom improvement of TMD. This retrospective study aims to analyze a proper splint weaning method in patients with TMD based on symptom improvement. Materials and Methods: The authors examined 130 TMD patients with TMJ disorders, masticatory muscle disorders, and clenching/bruxism who had received splint therapy (occlusion stabilization splint, anterior positioning splint) of patients who visited the Department of Orofacial Pain and Oral Medicine at Yonsei University Dental Hospital from 2015 to 2020. They were evaluated according to the method to wean splints. Results: The mean splint therapy period was 29.0 months, during which patients wore splints 7 days a week for 8.4 months, 3 -4 days a week for 9.5 months, and finally 1 -2 days a week for 11.1 months (a total of 29.0 months, about 2.5 years). Conclusion: It seems that TMD symptoms can be alleviated and side effects such as occlusal change can be minimized if patients wear a splint 7 days a week for the first 6 months, followed by 3 -4 days a week for the next 6 to 18 months, and finally 1 -2 days a week after 18 months.
