Could your airway size predict nighttime teeth grinding?

NCT ID NCT07511946

First seen Apr 10, 2026 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 13 times

Summary

This study will examine the link between upper airway volume and sleep-related teeth grinding (bruxism) in people with obstructive sleep apnea. Researchers will use safe, low-radiation 3D imaging and sleep tests to measure airway size and bruxism intensity. The goal is to better understand how these conditions are connected, which could improve future care for the 21% of people worldwide affected by sleep bruxism.
