What this Trial Is About
Bruxism is a common condition where people involuntarily grind or clench their teeth, often linked to stress, anxiety, and depression. This study focuses on individuals aged 30 to 50 who have both bruxism and periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease of the gums. Researchers aim to understand how treating gum disease affects psychological distress and mental health in these patients. All participants will receive subgingival instrumentation, which includes cleaning procedures like scaling and root planing using hand scalers, curettes, and ultrasonic devices. This treatment is applied to all study participants to assess its impact on both their gum health and psychological well-being over time. Participants will be evaluated at the start, then again at 2 months and 3 months after treatment. During these visits, researchers will measure psychological distress, mental health status, and periodontal health, including inflammation and other gum parameters. The study includes healthy adults and monitors changes related to both their mental health and oral condition throughout the study period.
