Summary
This observational study looks at whether people with bruxism (teeth grinding or clenching) have different levels of certain substances in their saliva, such as cortisol and immune markers, compared to healthy individuals. It also examines if these biological markers are linked to how much stress a person feels. Participants provide a saliva sample and fill out a stress questionnaire, helping researchers understand the connection between stress and bruxism.
