Why is it important?

bruxism may often become very difficult to manage in patients with severe brain injury.

Perspectives

This is a small cohort single institution study. However, most neuro-critical care units come across a few patients of this sign which can be uncomfortable both for the patient and the nursing unit. This study initiates a search for a better solution of the problem.
