Sleep Disorders Affecting Prognosis of Dental Treatment

Anna Colonna et al. Dent Clin North Am. 2024 Oct.

Abstract

This study provided an overview of the knowledge on the main sleep-related disorders and conditions affecting the prognosis of dental treatment: sleep bruxism (SB), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Current scientific evidence seems to suggest that these phenomena (ie, SB, OSA, GERD) belong to a circle of mutually relating sleep disorders and conditions where dental practitioners can play a key role in diagnosis and treatment.

Keywords: Bruxism; Dental treatment; Gastroesophageal reflux disease; Obstructive sleep apnea; Orofacial pain; Sleep bruxism; Sleep disorders; Temporomandibular disorders.
