Stopped: Waiting agreement for the use of electromiography in the hospital
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of clear aligners on the symptoms and signs reported by bruxism patients. The aim of the investigators is to evaluate the effect of treatment on the masticatory muscles and the changes related to the tropism of the masseter muscles using Bruxoff ® device, before and after the beginning of the therapy. Bruxoff ® is a holter that assesses the contractions of the masseter muscles and the heart during sleep. The plan is to compare treatment with clear aligners for bruxism and non-bruxism patients. The results will allow the investigators to evaluate the progress of clear aligner therapy in bruxism patients and compare them with those of non-bruxism patients.
