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

Bruxism-Related Signs and Periodontal Disease: A Preliminary Study.
TL;DR: The data suggest that patients with periodontal disease demonstrate more bruxism while being awake than during sleep, and the proportion of subjects with high awake Bruxism-related signs subjects was higher than those of the subject with high sleep bruxisms-relatedSigns.

TL;DR: The Standardized Tool for the Assessment of Bruxism (STAB) as mentioned in this paper is a multidimensional assessment system that collects information from the patient's history (subject-based), from the clinical assessment performed by an examiner (clinically based), or from the use of instruments to measure certain outcomes (instrumentally based).

Ultrasonographic evaluation of jaw elevator muscles in young adults with bruxism and with and without attrition-type tooth wear: A pilot study
TL;DR: It is shown that the thickness of chewing muscles increases with bruxism, and the occlusal forces in the teeth increase, and therefore, the tooth wear increases.

TL;DR: The technological field of bruxism is growing toward smaller, automated devices; there is still no predominant owner of the technologies; products are expected to provide home use with a high degree of reliability and specificity, using the Internet of Things and enabling real-time diagnosis.

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.
