TLDR
The expert group defined bruxism as a repetitive jaw-muscle activity characterised by clenching or grinding of the teeth and/or by bracing or thrusting of the mandible and proposed a diagnostic grading system of 'possible', 'probable' and 'definite' sleep or awake bruXism.Abstract:
To date, there is no consensus about the definition and diagnostic grading of bruxism. A written consensus discussion was held among an international group of bruxism experts as to formulate a definition of bruxism and to suggest a grading system for its operationalisation. The expert group defined bruxism as a repetitive jaw-muscle activity characterised by clenching or grinding of the teeth and/or by bracing or thrusting of the mandible. Bruxism has two distinct circadian manifestations: it can occur during sleep (indicated as sleep bruxism) or during wakefulness (indicated as awake bruxism). For the operationalisation of this definition, the expert group proposes a diagnostic grading system of 'possible', 'probable' and 'definite' sleep or awake bruxism. The proposed definition and grading system are suggested for clinical and research purposes in all relevant dental and medical domains.read more

TL;DR: Results indicate that DRD1 rs686 may potentially affect predisposition to SB, that H TR2A rs6313 SNP may be involved in SB pathogenesis, and that HTR2Ars2770304 polymorphism might contribute to the association between SB and OSA.

Factors influencing the fracture of dental implants
TL;DR: It is suggested that 5 factors could influence the incidence of implant fractures: grade of titanium, implant diameter and length, cantilever, bruxism, and direct adjacency to cantilevers.

Validity of the Oral Behaviours Checklist: correlations between OBC scores and intensity of facial pain
TL;DR: The psychometric properties of the Dutch OBC were good; test-retest reliability was excellent and concurrent validity was good; no significant correlations could be found between oral parafunctional behaviours and facial pain.

TL;DR: A grading system of definite, probable, and possible neuropathic pain is proposed, which includes the grade possible, which can only be regarded as a working hypothesis, and the grades probable and definite, which require confirmatory evidence from a neurologic examination.
