Abstract
An investigation was undertaken to determine the relationship between tooth contact during sleep, the occurrence of rapid eye movements and electrical activity from certain muscles and muscle groups. Single contacts occurred in association with brief activity unaccompanied by rapid eye movements. Multiple contacts occurred during rapid eye movement periods. These multiple contacts are closely related to the grinding episodes exhibited by bruxists.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
