简要总结
This study compared the effectiveness of Kinesio tape and occlusal splint application in improving sleep quality and reducing myofascial pain in children with sleep bruxism.
详细描述
Forty-seven pediatric patients with sleep bruxism symptoms were randomly assigned into 3 groups for treatment: Kinesio tape group (KT), Occlusal splint group (OS), and Exercise group (EG). The following assessments were made in all 3 groups, before the treatment and at the end of the 1st and 5th week: Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale (WBFPS), measurement of maximum mouth opening, assessment of pressure pain threshold of the bilateral masseter and temporal muscles, and evaluation of temporal and masseter muscle thickness by ultrasonography.

Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale
时间窗: Applied before, 1 week after, and 5 weeks after the treatment
The Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale is a pain assessment tool that uses a series of faces to help individuals, especially children, express the intensity of their pain. It consists of a line of faces ranging from a smiling face (indicating "no pain") to a face with a distressed expression (indicating "worst pain"). The person is asked to point to the face that best represents their level of pain, allowing healthcare providers to assess and understand the individual's pain experience, particularly in cases where verbal communication may be challenging.
