  • Title: Factors associated with nocturnal bruxism and its treatment.
    Author: Funch DP, Gale EN.
    Journal: J Behav Med; 1980 Dec; 3(4):385-97. PubMed ID: 7230260.
    Abstract:
    Using a single-subject design, two methods of treating nocturnal bruxism were evaluated. Neither technique was successful; both resulted in a rebound effect when treatment was stopped. In addition, the role of anxiety in bruxing behavior was evaluated. Contrary to most theoretical beliefs, bruxing resulting from anxiety was not as important as "anticipatory" anxiety resulting in bruxing.
