teeth grinding is emotional stability related to bruxism
Journal of Research in Personality, 2010Co-Authors: Angelina R Sutin, Antonio Terracciano, Luigi Ferrucci, Paul T. CostaAbstract:This study examines the association between personality traits and bruxism, the repetitive grinding or clenching of teeth. Community-dwelling participants (N = 470) had a comprehensive oral examination by a dentist and completed a Dental History and personality questionnaires. Consistent with the literature on state anxiety and depression as antecedents of bruxism, Neuroticism-related traits were associated with self-reported teeth grinding. These traits were also associated with other oral complaints often associated with anxiety (jaw clicks, difficulty chewing food, and dry mouth), but not with more general oral health complaints (unhealthy gums, bleeding gums, and canker sores) or with dentist-assessed occlusal wear or tongue indentations. This study provides evidence for the association between Neuroticism and bruxism and other stress-related oral health symptoms.

Dental treatment planning and management in the patient who has cancer
Dental Clinics of North America, 2008Co-Authors: Michael T Brennan, Peter B LockhartAbstract:The oral cavity has the potential to be a major source of short-term and long-term complications from cancer therapy. Appropriate evaluation and elimination of potential sources of oral infection before cancer therapy is vital because oral bacteria are a known source of bacteremia and septicemia during cancer therapy. Cancer diagnosis with previous and planned treatment, past medical History, past Dental History, current medications, drug allergies, social History, family History, laboratory values, extraoral findings, intraoral findings, and radiographic findings must all be evaluated in planning Dental treatment for these complex cases.
