“…[1][2][3][4] An example of this was a study to look at bruxism and its effect on tooth wear, periodontal disease and TMD. [5] We found that severe bruxism could lead to different effects in different patients. In some, there was tooth wear, and in others it was jaw and muscle pain, while in still others, there was an inverse relationship between bruxism and periodontal bone breakdown.…”

“…We called it the 'weak link theory, ' suggesting that if a study only looked at one outcome, the resulting conclusions may be different from one that looked at the same level of bruxism on multiple outcomes in the individual subjects studied. [5] The term 'dental occlusion' seems to be loosely applied to the wide range of concepts in the field and may be the reason why there is such misunderstanding and disagreement between occlusal concepts. [1][2][3][4] Is it tooth related [6]; muscle related [7]; joint related [1,8]; or is it something else completely?…”

“…Mehta et al [33] documented the inter-relationship among indices of periodontal breakdown (Russell Periodontal Index) [34], temporomandibular dysfunction (Helkimo Dysfunction Index) [35], tooth wear assessment, and parafunctional activity based on the reports of sleep bruxism. About 90% of subjects with moderate and severe bruxism scores had a high index in only one of the three parameters, suggesting that the weakest component of the oral system is selectively affected by strong parafunctional activity.…”

“…Vor der Therapie bestehen posteriore Führungen mit potenziell negativer Auswirkung auf die kraniomandibuläre Muskulatur und die Kiefergelenke. Zusätzlich können einzelne Zähne, vorwiegend die Molaren, Schlifffacetten und parodontale Einbrüche aufweisen [9]. Diesbezüg-lich soll auch eine nicht-chirurgische Korrektur eine eindeutige Verbesserung mit Fronteckzahnführung erreichen.…”
