Brief Summary:
Bruxism is the unconscious act of grinding or clenching the teeth It leads to hyperactivity of the masticatory muscles due to non-functional mandibular movements which can result in pain symptoms and is therefore a significant factor contributing to changes in the temporomandibular joint While the beneficial effects of exercise and kinesio taping on temporomandibular dysfunction and bruxism have been validated by various studies in the literature research investigating their impact on cervical awareness remains quite limited Hence the aim of this study is to examine the effects of kinesio taping in addition to exercise on pain mandibular range of motion sleep quality depression levels and cervical awareness in individuals with bruxism
Detailed Description:
Bruxism is a parafunctional or unconscious act of grinding or clenching the teeth The factors contributing to bruxism are thought to include joint and soft tissue injuries genetic factors fatigue and stress There is a consensus that the etiology of bruxism is multifactorial and originates from central mechanisms Bruxism is a common parafunctional activity in the general population occurring both during sleep and while awake Daytime bruxism which is more prevalent in women affects approximately 20 of the adult population while sleep bruxism affects around 10 Overall the prevalence of bruxism decreases with age regardless of gender
The treatment of bruxism aims to raise awareness of oral parafunctional behaviors alleviate pain establish a resting position for the temporomandibular joint improve posture in the head and neck regions restore muscle strength between affected muscles and achieve pain-free range of motion While there is no definitive treatment method a variety of invasive acupuncture injections surgery etc and non-invasive exercise electrical stimulation manual trigger point stimulation taping etc approaches are employed In recent years reversible non-invasive approaches have gained importance in treatment
Taping and bandaging have long been part of physiotherapy practices as treatment methods Kinesio Tape is a latex-free thin cotton-based tape Developed in Japan 25 years ago Kinesio Tape has become widely used in recent years not only in the United States Europe and many other parts of the world but also in our country The structure thickness and weight of the tape are similar to the physical properties of the skin with a high degree of longitudinal elasticity The tension levels of the tapes vary depending on the treatment purpose The primary goal of the Kinesio taping method is to support healing by allowing pain-free movement In the Kinesio taping method the tape is applied around or over the muscles as needed to prevent muscle overactivity
Psychological counseling and exercise are widely used techniques in the treatment of temporomandibular dysfunction TMD and have been shown to have positive outcomes in the literature In a randomized controlled trial by Nimela et al the efficacy of counseling and masticatory muscle exercises alone was found to be similar to that of stabilization splints in both pain relief and increasing active maximal mouth opening In a study by Coşkun et al the addition of kinesio taping to counseling and exercises resulted in significantly greater benefits in both the short and long term While the beneficial effects of exercise and kinesio taping on TMD and bruxism have been confirmed in various studies research investigating their impact on cervical awareness is quite limited Therefore the aim of this study is to examine the effects of kinesio taping in addition to exercise on pain temporomandibular joint range of motion sleep quality depression levels and cervical awareness in individuals with bruxism
