Background: The present study assess lifestyle and eating habits of Iranian adolescent girls. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 3207 adolescent girls, aged 12–18 years. Lifestyle and eating habits of adolescents were assessed. Results: The prevalence of overweight was 11.3% and that of obesity was 10.2%. The frequencies of daily intake of fruits, dairy products and vegetables were 60.9%, 45.6 % and 33.5%, respectively. Skipping breakfast (15.8%) was more frequent than skipping dinner or lunch. Moreover, 10.6% of subjects had fast food daily and 16.2% had fast food weekly. Overall, 55.2% of participants watched television for at least 2 hours a day; and 27.1% reported to have a sleeping time of less than 8 hours a day. Low physical activity, i.e. less than 30 minutes per day, was less frequent among participants with high socio-economic status (SES) compared to those with medium or low SES (57.6% vs. 61.3% and 64.1%, respectively, P value = 0.010). Conclusion: Improvement of lifestyle habits should be considered in public health plans for health promotion of adolescent girls and the next generation. Primordial prevention of chronic diseases by improving healthy lifestyle of adolescent girls should be a national public health priority

Background: Bruxism is a parafunctional oral activity defined as excessive teeth grinding or jaw clenching. This disorder causes damage to the teeth and deforms them. Objectives: This is the first phase of the sleep bruxism and respiratory disorders assessment study in Kerman, Iran, which evaluated respiratory disorders and sleep bruxism in schoolchildren aged 8 - 11 years between 2018 - 2019. Methods: A total of 573 primary school students aged 8 - 11 years were recruited for this cross-sectional study in Kerman between 2018 - 2019. The subjects were chosen randomly from 20 schools located throughout the city. Following permission from officials, 30 students from each school were admitted to the study randomly. The parents were invited to fill out a checklist that included a history of respiratory and sleep problems and signs of bruxism or abnormal jaw movements. Additionally, an examination was performed, and the symptoms of bruxism, such as tooth wear and restoration fractures, were documented. Results: The parents of 573 children were recruited to the study. The prevalence of bruxism and respiratory diseases was observed to be 20.6% (n = 118) and 26.5% (n = 152), respectively. The children with sound production had 2.3 times higher odds of bruxism prevalence than those without sound production (P = 0.004). However, children with temporomandibular joint and paranasal sinus sensitivity had 4.5 (P = 0.001) and 3.8 (P = 0.001) times higher odds, respectively. Additionally, the odds of bruxism prevalence were 1.4 times higher in children with respiratory disorders than those without (P = 0.001). Conclusions: Bruxism was common in children who had a respiratory disorder. Given the potential impact of bruxism on children’s dental health, it is important to pay special attention to the health status of children with respiratory disorders.
