【背景技术】【Background technique】
夜磨牙症主要表现是夜间熟睡后上下颌牙齿紧咬并滑行摩擦，其咬合力之大是正常情况下无法达到的，上下齿在摩擦滑行时发出特有的磨牙声音，对自然牙齿会造成严重磨损。因为咬肌用力过大、过猛，磨牙症人晨起都会有面部肌肉酸痛、疲劳感觉，同时，对颞下颌关节也会造成损伤和破坏，所以，夜磨牙症的危害是显而易见的。但是，关于夜磨牙症的发生原因至今没有明确。多数倾向于认为是熟睡后脑神经不自主放电，引起面部肌肉运动的结果，但仍缺乏相关证据。由于原因不明，夜磨牙症治疗也没有确切方法，现在常有的方法是采用软、硬塑料等制成的牙垫，让患者夜间睡觉时放置在牙列间，通过牙垫的缓冲减轻或者防止磨牙过程给牙齿造成的磨损。少数也有采用药物治疗的。但是，这种方法的缺陷是显而易见的，虽然减轻了对牙齿的磨损，可是过度用力导致的肌肉酸痛和疲困无法缓解，夜磨牙的过程依然存在。更严重的是，一些患者因为戴用牙垫改变了牙齿的接触关系，反而会加重咬肌的夜间运动量，并导致面部疲困感的加重。而通过抑制肌肉异常运动来终止夜间磨牙症的技术和方法尝未见报道。The main manifestation of bruxism is that the upper and lower teeth clench and slide and rub after a deep sleep at night. The occlusal force is so large that it cannot be achieved under normal circumstances. The upper and lower teeth make a unique grinding sound when rubbing and sliding, which will cause serious wear to the natural teeth. . Because the masseter muscle is too strong and too strong, people with bruxism will have facial muscle soreness and fatigue in the morning. At the same time, it will also cause damage and destruction to the temporomandibular joint. Therefore, the harm of night bruxism is obvious. However, the cause of bruxism has not been clarified so far. Most tend to think that it is the result of involuntary discharge of brain nerves after deep sleep, which causes facial muscle movement, but relevant evidence is still lacking. Because the cause is unknown, there is no definite method for the treatment of bruxism. The common method now is to use tooth pads made of soft and hard plastics, etc., and let patients place them between the teeth when they sleep at night. The wear and tear on teeth caused by the grinding process. A few also have to adopt drug treatment. However, the defect of this method is obvious. Although the wear and tear on the teeth is reduced, the muscle soreness and fatigue caused by excessive force cannot be relieved, and the process of grinding teeth at night still exists. What's more serious is that some patients change the contact relationship between the teeth because of wearing dental braces, which will increase the amount of nighttime exercise of the masseter muscles and lead to aggravated facial fatigue. And the technique and the method of terminating nighttime bruxism by inhibiting abnormal muscle movement have never been reported.
