About this study

Official title: Which is More Effective in Management of Bruxism for Implant Overdenture Patients: Botox or Occlusal Splints - A One Year Clinical Study

The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of Botulinum toxin (Botox) and traditional occlusal splints for the management of bruxism in edentulous patients rehabilitated with MIOD

Read the detailed description

42 edentulous patients having implant retained mandibular overdenture suffering from bruxism with clinical manifestation, will be randomly divided into three groups, group 1 control group (traditional approach of removing denture at night) ,group 2 will be managed by occlusal splints whereas group 3 will be managed with botulinum toxin injection (Botox). New maxillary dentures and mandibular over dentures will be constructed for both groups. Muscle activity will be measured at time of denture insertion (T0), 3(T3) 6(T6), 9(T9) and 12(T12) month of treatment. Patients satisfaction will be evaluated at the time of denture insertion (T0), 6(T6), and 12(T12) month of treatment using TMD/ NS numeric scales 10 cm questionnaire which include: headache, face pain, face tension, limitation of mouth opening and complaints during mastication.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patient satisfaction: questionnaire

    Patients satisfaction was evaluated using TMD/ NS numeric scales 10 cm questionnaire which included: headache, face pain, face tension, limitation of mouth opening and complaints during mastication with scores from 1 to 10 whereas 1 means least pain and 10 means highest pain.it was assessed at baseline (T0), then after 3months(T3) then after 6months from baseline(T6), then after 9months from baseline(T9) and finally after 12 months from baseline (T12). which means every 3 months.

    Measured: 12months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Electromyography

    measuring muscle activity for massetter and temporalis muscle at baseline,3,6,9,12 months

    Measured: 12 months
