About this trial
The goal of this observational study is to learn how mental health affects periodontal health in people having teeth grinding (bruxism).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does poor mental health increase the risk of periodontitis in people with teeth grinding? Does stress link teeth grinding and periodontitis?
Participants are people who likely have teeth grinding(bruxism) and periodontitis
Participants will:
Answer questions about their mental health, including stress Get a periodontal health status check
Teeth grinding(Bruxism) can occur due to stress, smoking, alcohol use, and bite problems. Stress may affect muscle activity and lead to teeth grinding. It can also weaken the body's defense and lead to poor oral care. This may worsen periodontal health.
