Abstract : Many dental degenerative diseases such as occlusal trauma, temporomandibular dysfunction, abfractions, and tooth migration seem to be related to excessive biomechanical applied load from strong masticatory muscle activities during bruxism function. However, clinical dentists have long been neglected most of these conditions in dental practice. This pilot study was concerned with development new system fbr analyzing sleep bruxism and to examine the muscle activities and mandibular movement patterns during sleep bruxism. The system was consisted of 2-axis accelerometer, electroencephalography and electromyography. Five healthy volunteers were included for evaluating sleep bruxism in the sleep laboratory, research institute of occlusion medicine, Kanagawa Dental College. Advantages of the new analyzing system of sleep bruxism were providing a easily distinction of the real bryxism activity and the body movement and differentiate the grinding, tapping and clenching movement of the mandible.
