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

Quantitative analyses of jaw-opening muscle activity during the active phase of jaw-closing muscles in sleep bruxism.

TL;DR: Rhythmic masticatory muscle activity, which is defined as three or more consecutive phasic bursts, accounts for a large part of sleep bruxism (SB), and the obtained results suggested that the pattern of electromyogram activity of jaw‐opening and jaw‐closing muscles in RMMA was not necessarily co‐contraction.

TL;DR: The role of bruxism in children and adolescents with Down syndrome, the most often diagnosed congenital syndrome, is still unclear as discussed by the authors, but it appears that Bruxism is more prevalent in Down syndrome individuals rather than in the general pediatric population.

Painful and non-painful symptoms evoked by experimental bracing and thrusting of the mandible in healthy individuals.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of bracing and thrusting of the mandible on the development of musculoskeletal symptoms was examined in healthy volunteers, with a significant increase in the VAS scores of pain, unpleasantness, soreness, fatigue, tension, stiffness, stress and headache.

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.
