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

Periodontal mechanoreceptors and bruxism at low bite forces.
TL;DR: Progress is made towards the development of an optimal protocol in which jaw tremor can serve as a biological marker of bruxism, and the low effect sizes measured with the current protocol contrast highly with those of the previous study, where larger, dynamic bite forces were used, and where jaw Tremor was markedly different in bruxists compared with controls.

Mandibular condylar morphology for bruxers with different grinding patterns
TL;DR: MG during SB is associated with condylar morphology that is considered not to be ideal, and there is a significant difference in distribution of condylars morphology type between the group grinding and GG combined with mediotrusive side grinding.

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.
