Assessment and Brain Training of Patients Experiencing Head and Facial Pain with a Distortion of Orofacial Somatorepresentation: A Narrative Review

TL;DR: Somatosensory reintegration, facial emotion recognition, movement representation techniques, orofacial motor training and therapeutic patient education are explained in detail, and this may challenge new directions in rehabilitation and research.

Sleep Bruxism: Validity of Clinical Research Diagnostic Criteria in a Controlled Polysomnographic Study

TL;DR: Polysomnographic recordings from 18 bruxers and 18 asymptomatic subjects were analyzed to discriminate sleep bruxism from other orofacial motor activities and to calculate sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values of research criteria.
