New study links airway size to nighttime teeth grinding
NCT ID NCT07511946
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 24, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how the size of the upper airway might influence teeth grinding (bruxism) during sleep in people with obstructive sleep apnea. Researchers will use safe, low-radiation 3D scans and sleep tests to measure airway volume and bruxism in 80 adults. The goal is to better understand the connection between these conditions, which could improve future care for sleep-related grinding.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors better understand and manage teeth grinding linked to sleep apnea.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study that does not test a treatment, so it will not directly improve symptoms. Results may not apply to everyone with sleep apnea or bruxism.
