A panel of experts, including dentists, psychologists, and specialists in pain and facial pain, defined bruxism using strategies such as polysomnography (PSG) and electromyography (EMG) 2 to determine whether it is triggered by specific clinical signs such as involuntary movements 3 in the chewing muscles. 4 There are many studies on this topic; unfortunately, scientific evidence on awake bruxism is limited. The concept of awake bruxism is currently considered muscular activity during wakefulness that is characterized by repetitive or sustained dental contact, accompanied by pushes or mandibular reinforcements (movements) during a person’s conscious activities, which is not necessarily pathological but has clinical consequences. 5 , 6 When comparing populations, awake bruxism has risk factors such as mental disorders, depression, and suicidal delusions, among others, with clinical signs such as fatigue, muscle pain, dental attrition, and temporomandibular joint pain, suggesting the need for the evaluation of intercultural comparisons, social strata and lifestyle habits. 7 Evaluation can be performed with noninstrumental approaches such as self-reports (anamnestic questionnaires), clinical observation, instrumental evaluation using electromyography (EMG), and ecological momentary assessment (EMA) strategies. 2 , 8 , 9 EMA allows us to collect data in real time over a given period of time by recording multiple coincident points in the environment. 10 – 12 This instrumentation goes beyond retrospective questionnaires, making EMA very useful in the evaluation of oral activity. The limitation of EMA is that the data are fragmented, as only specific behaviors are selected. 13 – 15 To control this bias, in Italy, the research group under Professor Alessandro Bracci at the University of Pavoda created a smartphone app, which incorporates EMA to collect data on dental contact, jaw clenching, tooth compression and teeth grinding. 16 , 17 The application provides data on the frequency of awake bruxism behaviors (clinical signs entered into the application) over a period of one week, with evaluation 4 times per day. These data are stored in the memory of the phone. After the evaluation time, we obtained data on the percentage and frequency of clinical signs. 18 The objective of this study was to monitor the frequency of awake bruxism behaviors in dental students by using a smartphone app. Materials and Methods Approval was obtained from the Bioethics Committee of the University of the Americas (CEBE-2022-0601). Three hundred (n = 300) young adults who were legally enrolled in two different Ecuadorian universities (*UDLA/UESG) in Quito and Guayaquil were randomly selected after signing the informed consent form and agreeing to participate in the study. They underwent a one-week registration period with a smartphone app (BruxApp Research ® , Pontedera, Italy) developed by Dr. Alessandro Bracci et al., with the aim of reporting and monitoring the frequency of AB behaviors in their natural environment; this free application can be accessed via Google Pay and the App store. The students were made aware of the responsibility of participating in the research, making their country and their university known to the world. The sample included fifth-, sixth-, seventh-, eighth- and ninth-semester students who were legally enrolled and who were attending face-to-face classes conducted by the Faculty of Dentistry at two different Ecuadorian universities (Quito and Guayaquil). The inclusion criteria included having recent generation smartphones, good general health and the absence of temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD)/orofacial pain and/or any documented degenerative, neurological or systemic disease (e.g., rheumatological disease, hormonal disease). An informative meeting was held during which the students maintained contact with the principal investigators (BV, VM, PP, MRT, EAL, LCH, and AO). During that session, the objective of the study was explained, and training was provided on how to use the app ( Figure 1 ). Figure 1. Flow diagram research. The Bruxism APP collects a person’s data in a self-informed way in their daily life with an EMA approach (ecological approach), sending random messages during the day that alert the person of the conditions of their teeth and jaw muscles; individuals must respond within 5 minutes by touching the cone of the screen of their cell phone and indicating the current condition of their jaw muscles: jaw muscle relaxation, teeth contact, jaw clenching, teeth clenching and teeth grinding. The objective of the study was explained while providing training for the correct use of the application ( Figure 1 ). The students were instructed to download the BruxApp and asked to start their first data collection session the next morning, which included 20 alerts per day at random intervals. The participants were instructed to comply with at least 60% of the requests per day (answering within the first 5 minutes; otherwise, the screen sent an error message) Students who responded to <60% of the alerts were excluded from the study automatically. Data were recorded during a period of 7 days, the records were calibrated from 8.00 to 12.30 and from 14.30 to 22.00, and the participants were instructed to ignore alerts during meals and particular activities (smoking, singing). The application records were recorded all day. After seven valid days of recordings, the software generated an anonymous .csv file, which the students sent to the researchers via prearranged emails. The data were collected by the lead author (B. V.) in collaboration with two resident dentists of the Specialty of Oral Rehabilitation (V. M., P. P., MRT, and EAL) of dentistry and two professors (LCH and A. of the Faculty of Dentistry of the University of Guayaquil). To maximize the recording window, lunchtime was excluded because the participants were instructed to ignore alerts during meals and activities (smoking, singing). If the minimum number of valid responses per day was not obtained, the software automatically added another recording day to ensure completion of the 7-day protocol. For the study of awake bruxism, the chi-square test ( Table 1 ) was used to determine the association between muscle relaxation and nonrelaxation. In the alerts from the app, in the first stage, the muscles were not in occlusal contact (maximum intercuspation); in the second stage, there was occlusal contact (maximum intercuspation) and clenching of the jaw and teeth accompanied by grinding. The existing correlation was direct despite being in different contexts, demonstrating that the conditions were present during the conscious activity of the person (awake). When reporting mandibular relaxation, there was a high probability that muscle relaxation was reported in the application (p≤0.05). Table 1. Significance test.

Results Assuming 95% reliability and 5% error in the research, a sample size of 300 young adults from the two universities involved in the study was included in simple random sampling model.

Thus, the proportion of females in this study was significantly greater than that of males. A total of 79% of the participants were aged 21 to 22 years, which was expected since this sample set consisted of young adults studying at a university ( Table 3 ). Table 3.

The included population of dental students may have had a positive influence on the results, as having knowledge of what the app is measuring limited the bias in the study. The app used in the study to monitor the frequency of AB behavior revealed that the symptomatology found was more significant in 84% of women aged 21 to 22 years, and the daily use of technology by young people was helpful in their fulfillment of responses to the alerts of the app. This information coincides with what was proposed by Dias et al. in 2021, which indicates that the use of the EMA approach in smartphone programs for monitoring AB behaviors was useful in the long term, making individuals aware of the recognition of the different pathologies considered by the application. 19 , 20 The BruxApp provides various frequencies and percentages depending on sex and age groups; 32.13% of women and 5.91% of men reported experiencing maxillary discomfort, justifying its diagnostic importance. The report indicated that 68.9% of alerts received responses regarding a state of relaxation (without jaw discomfort). 21 , 22 When excluding the state of relaxation, mandibular clenching had the greatest significance at 39%. Monitoring the nonrelaxation state with five specific conditions included in the app, such as jaw muscle relaxation, tooth contact, jaw force, teeth clenching, and teeth grinding, resulted in the collection of data for >6000 alerts (20 alerts × 300 participants × 7 days). During the 7-day observation period, data on 42000 alerts were collected. Zani et al. (2021) used the BruxApp in 2 Italian universities for monitoring AB behaviors by assessing the state of relaxation and nonrelaxation, coinciding with 5 conditions: relaxation of the mandibular musculature, 76.4%; contact with teeth, 13.6%; mandibular bracing, 7.0%; teeth clenching, 2.5%; and teeth grinding, 0.5%.21,22 Data collected using the EMA approach in observational studies indicate a reference in the frequency of AB behaviors, indicating that predisposing factors may vary in women under normal conditions, stress factors, and hormonal factors. 23 , 24 Jaw clenching was the most frequently reported, at 15.28%, and dental pain was the least frequently reported, at 0.17%, and the combined frequency of AB in a state of nonrelaxation was 23.6% 25 ; the consideration of psychological factors within the etiology of AB, which relates to sex, provides a statistical variable indicating that men control their emotions better 26 than women do. Studies conducted by Bracci et al. (2018) showed similarities with our study, revealing a slight difference in sex when monitoring AB behaviors with EMAs, which was not a determinant of the outcome. 10 , 27 No statistically significant differences were found between the population participating in the research (UDLA; USG), the self-reported strategies for AB, which helped in the data collection, and the alerts generated by the app during the 7-day monitoring period, which controlled the bias of the study due to the alarm that was activated according to the program. 28 , 29 The alerts generated in the evaluation by using the application provided diverse results: 33% of participants reported experiencing jaw discomfort the first day, 61% reported it on the second day, 64% reported it on the third day, 21% reported it on the fourth day, the result did not change on the fifth day, 41% reported experiencing relaxation on the sixth day, and 51% reported experiencing relaxation on the seventh day. The natural fluctuation in the recognition consisting of the symptomatology reported regarding the specific AB behaviors recorded in the app demonstrates considerable variability. 30 , 31 These findings indicate that relaxed muscles are recognized in a high percentage of the investigated population, taking the baseline results as a starting point when evaluating the combined frequencies of all the symptoms of AB indicated in the app. 32 , 33 The EMA strategy used in the smartphone application indicated a medium frequency value that provided reliability in monitoring AB behaviors, reducing the influence of natural fluctuations directly related to the specific symptomatology. 34 , 35 Unfortunately, e-mail registration limited daytime contact with the patients with TMD, 36 , 37 and it is recommended that future research evaluate the increase or decrease in the frequency of AB symptoms, relating them to eating habits, smoking habits, medication use, and psychological problems. 38 , 39 Compared with the findings of other similar studies that have contributed to updating the concept of bruxism by providing strategic evaluation options, 40 , 41 population comparisons will be made better by translating the BruxApp 42 , 43 into several languages, which opens the possibility of conducting multicenter epidemiological research on bruxism. Conclusion During 7 days of monitoring the frequency of AB behaviors through a smartphone app, the student population experienced discomfort in the jaw and teeth in the first 4 days, reaching a state of relaxation on the seventh day.

Continue reading READ ALL Dear authors, investigating the frequency of behaviors related to awake bruxism, especially in a sample of university students, is important given the increased incidence of this outcome. The topic and idea of the study is relevant, since the use of apps can help change behavior and help identify important signs. However, the study has significant errors in the writing, limiting readers' comprehension on several points. In addition, the shows insufficiency of important information, especially in the study's methodology, could lead to future studies being reproduced. After reading, some aspects could be clarified to improve the article, so please leave your comments below. #Abstract: -The methodology section shows insufficient important information for an initial understanding of the study. How does the app assess the frequency of bruxism? It's not clear how the app identifies the behaviors of tooth contact, muscle relaxation, teeth grinding and the apartment. -Describe the statistical analysis used. #Introduction: - Bruxism has different types of classification depending on how the diagnosis is made. In this case, as the bruxism was self-reported by the student through the app, the most correct term to describe it is “possible bruxism”. Please take care to use the correct term throughout the study. - Please reference the following sentence: “When comparing populations, awake bruxism has risk factors such as mental disorders, depression, and suicidal delusions, among others” - Please describe in the introduction a study from the last five years that has assessed possible awake bruxism in students, and what the associated factors are. The introduction also shows insufficiency data on the prevalence of this condition, especially in relation to the study sample (young students). - Are there any studies that have evaluated bruxism-related apps? If so, please describe. #Methods: - Please include that “possible awake bruxism” was assessed through the participants' self-report; -Important information on data collection is missing. How were participants contacted to take part in the study and download the app? When was the study carried out? Was it after the COVID-19 pandemic? - Why were only university students from recent semesters included? Were only dental students considered? It is not clear here. - Why was there no sample calculation? Especially in descriptive studies, this is unpredictable. I suggest calculating the power of the study. - The statistical analysis part is not very clear. Be careful when relating the chi-square test to the expression “association”. The statistical analysis was carried out to check the distribution of the sample (frequencies) and not associations. #Results: - There are many tables that don't need to exist. I suggest adding the distribution tables for the sex and age variables. I also suggest classifying the age variable categorically (adolescents, young adults and adults) according to the World Health Organization classification. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Partly Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? No Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? No If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Partly Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? Yes Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? No Competing Interests: No competing interests were disclosed. Reviewer Expertise: dentistry; pediatric dentistry; social and preventive dentistry; epidemiology. I confirm that I have read this submission and believe that I have an appropriate level of expertise to state that I do not consider it to be of an acceptable scientific standard, for reasons outlined above.

The second sentence begins with "To" but is incomplete and shows insufficient clarity. Additionally, the description of awake bruxism behaviors is confusing. In the background section, these behaviors are defined in one way, but in the results, they are labeled differently, and in the conclusion, yet another set of names is used. This inconsistency makes it unclear which behavior is being discussed. I have never encountered the term "jaw effort" in the context of awake bruxism. In physiology, "jaw effort" is distinctly defined as "jaw bracing" or "jaw clenching." Jaw effort refers to the amount of force or muscular activity required to perform a specific task, such as chewing, which involves dynamic jaw movements during repetitive actions. In contrast, jaw bracing refers to the often subconscious contraction of the jaw muscles, typically involving sustained tension. The way this was described raises concerns that participants may have been given instructions that led them to misreport their behaviors. In the introduction, the study by Souza does not specifically state that individuals with awake bruxism are at risk for suicidal delusions. In fact, Souza's study is unique in the field and lacks further evidence to support such claims, so this cannot be presented as a fact, nor can the other risk factors. Additionally, the phrase "when comparing populations" is vague—what populations are being compared? Furthermore, in the introduction, the authors mention instrumental approaches such as PDG and EMG, but these concepts are discussed separately. They should be consolidated since they pertain to the same topic. I also noticed that there is no mention in the introduction of the significance of returning to classes or why this is an important moment to assess students’ frequency of awake bruxism. The rationale for assessing relaxation versus non-relaxation is not well explained. I strongly recommend reviewing other articles on EMA and awake bruxism, where the behaviors are more clearly described, as the explanation in the methods section is quite confusing. The methods section needs to be better detailed to align with the results being presented. In the results section, a condition called "daytime pressure" is suddenly introduced, though it was not mentioned previously in the methods, along with other new conditions. The manuscript requires substantial revision, particularly regarding its design, objectives, results, and interpretation. Additionally, the discussion and conclusion need to be more clearly articulated, they are many inconsistencies to allow publishing this article. That said, the authors have done commendable work with a substantial and representative sample. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Partly Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? No Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? No If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Partly Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? No Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? No Competing Interests: No competing interests were disclosed. Reviewer Expertise: My research area are: Temporomandibular disorders, bruxism, ecological momentary assessment, fatigue, chewing performance and quantitative sensory testing. I confirm that I have read this submission and believe that I have an appropriate level of expertise to state that I do not consider it to be of an acceptable scientific standard, for reasons outlined above.

We believe that this manuscript is appropriate for publication by F1000reserach. Response to comments from reviewers: Reviewer 2 . This manuscript aims to evaluate the use of smartphone applications in university students with awake bruxism. Abstract- The background is not clear and needs to be rewritten more meaningfully. Please re-write the aim of the study and the conclusion. In introduction, the abbreviation SB is for sleep bruxism, but it is wrongly mentioned. There are other abbreviations that have not been expanded, eg. EMA, GA. Please check whether the use of terminologies like pushes or mandibular reinforcement, additive bruxism is appropriate. The methodology of this study is interesting as the tool used for evaluation is gaining popularity, however the manuscript needs to be improvised and more comprehending to improve the readership. The English language requires lot of corrections and improvement as most of the sentences do not convey the intended meaning to the reader.

The conclusions are adequately drawn and supported by the results. 1. The introduction is short, with only 17 cited authors. In general, the number of references is not large - 50, which tends to the minimum for a review article. I ask the authors to add more articles, especially those published in the last 5 years. Authors can add and more similar articles to enrich their article. 50 cited articles are too small number. 2. Long tables make the results quite difficult. Try to systematize the cited authors more tightly. 3. The discussion is voluminous enough and a sufficient number of authors are compared. 4. The conclusion consists of one short sentence. Authors can submit their opinion on the most suitable app according to them. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature?

Continue reading READ ALL This manuscript aimed to evaluate the awake bruxism in university students using a smartphone application. This is an important and interesting issue, the sample is adequate and the authors have looked for a good methodology. Nevertheless, the manuscript needs reworking to be more comprehensible. In general, the English language needs to be revised. Furthermore, cited references must be checked for the names of the authors and their respective numbers throughout the text, synchronized with the list of references. Abstract: The “Background” does not make sense. Please, rewrite and defined the aim precisely. Also define the app used, BruxApp app, so as not to confuse the reader. The phrase “Awake bruxism was evaluated with the creation of an app that according to the authors evaluates…” it seems that the authors of this manuscript created the app. It is not possible to understand what additive bruxism is. The conclusion repeats the results and is vague. Text Please, revised the English language in the Introduction, as commented above. Almost paragraphs need to be rewritten, specially the last one, in which the first sentence does not make sense considering the study design, since the AB was not evaluated before or during the pandemic. Moreover, the aim needs to be better described and conclusion must be in agreement. Please, check if the BruxApp was developed by Dr Alessandro Bracci et al . The reference 16 does not match with this information, as well as the authors of reference 16 did not developed the app, I think. Statistical analysis must be inserted in the end of Methods. Please, explain why the condition of relaxation and nonrelaxation was associated. Why is this association important? Many paragraphs of the Discussion are results, not characterizing discussion. The Conclusion is not reliable, since stress with parafunctions were not evaluated. Finally, the manuscript needs intense reformulation regarding the design, aim, results and their interpretation, and a more precise discussion and conclusion. Despite this, the authors have performed a good job using an expressive sample. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? No Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? No Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? No If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? No Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? No Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? No Competing Interests: No competing interests were disclosed.

Not approved Fundamental flaws in the paper seriously undermine the findings and conclusions Dear authors, investigating the frequency of behaviors related to awake bruxism, especially in a sample of university students, is important given the increased incidence of this outcome. The topic and idea of the study is relevant, since the use of apps can help change behavior and help identify important signs. However, the study has significant errors in the writing, limiting readers' comprehension on several points. In addition, the shows insufficiency of important information, especially in the study's methodology, could lead to future studies being reproduced. After reading, some aspects could be clarified to improve the article, so please leave your comments below. #Abstract: -The methodology section shows insufficient important information for an initial understanding of the study. How does the app assess the frequency of bruxism? It's not clear how the app identifies the behaviors of tooth contact, muscle relaxation, teeth grinding and the apartment. -Describe the statistical analysis used. #Introduction: - Bruxism has different types of classification depending on how the diagnosis is made. In this case, as the bruxism was self-reported by the student through the app, the most correct term to describe it is “possible bruxism”. Please take care to use the correct term throughout the study. - Please reference the following sentence: “When comparing populations, awake bruxism has risk factors such as mental disorders, depression, and suicidal delusions, among others” - Please describe in the introduction a study from the last five years that has assessed possible awake bruxism in students, and what the associated factors are. The introduction also shows insufficiency data on the prevalence of this condition, especially in relation to the study sample (young students). - Are there any studies that have evaluated bruxism-related apps? If so, please describe. #Methods: - Please include that “possible awake bruxism” was assessed through the participants' self-report; -Important information on data collection is missing. How were participants contacted to take part in the study and download the app? When was the study carried out? Was it after the COVID-19 pandemic? - Why were only university students from recent semesters included? Were only dental students considered? It is not clear here. - Why was there no sample calculation? Especially in descriptive studies, this is unpredictable. I suggest calculating the power of the study. - The statistical analysis part is not very clear. Be careful when relating the chi-square test to the expression “association”. The statistical analysis was carried out to check the distribution of the sample (frequencies) and not associations. #Results: - There are many tables that don't need to exist. I suggest adding the distribution tables for the sex and age variables. I also suggest classifying the age variable categorically (adolescents, young adults and adults) according to the World Health Organization classification. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Partly Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? No Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? No If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Partly Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? Yes Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? No Competing Interests No competing interests were disclosed. Reviewer Expertise dentistry; pediatric dentistry; social and preventive dentistry; epidemiology.

Not approved Fundamental flaws in the paper seriously undermine the findings and conclusions In the abstract, I can identify some deficiencies in the study. The second sentence begins with "To" but is incomplete and shows insufficient clarity. Additionally, the description of awake bruxism behaviors is confusing. In the background section, these behaviors are defined in one way, but in the results, they are labeled differently, and in the conclusion, yet another set of names is used. This inconsistency makes it unclear which behavior is being discussed. I have never encountered the term "jaw effort" in the context of awake bruxism. In physiology, "jaw effort" is distinctly defined as "jaw bracing" or "jaw clenching." Jaw effort refers to the amount of force or muscular activity required to perform a specific task, such as chewing, which involves dynamic jaw movements during repetitive actions. In contrast, jaw bracing refers to the often subconscious contraction of the jaw muscles, typically involving sustained tension. The way this was described raises concerns that participants may have been given instructions that led them to misreport their behaviors. In the introduction, the study by Souza does not specifically state that individuals with awake bruxism are at risk for suicidal delusions. In fact, Souza's study is unique in the field and lacks further evidence to support such claims, so this cannot be presented as a fact, nor can the other risk factors. Additionally, the phrase "when comparing populations" is vague—what populations are being compared? Furthermore, in the introduction, the authors mention instrumental approaches such as PDG and EMG, but these concepts are discussed separately. They should be consolidated since they pertain to the same topic. I also noticed that there is no mention in the introduction of the significance of returning to classes or why this is an important moment to assess students’ frequency of awake bruxism. The rationale for assessing relaxation versus non-relaxation is not well explained. I strongly recommend reviewing other articles on EMA and awake bruxism, where the behaviors are more clearly described, as the explanation in the methods section is quite confusing. The methods section needs to be better detailed to align with the results being presented. In the results section, a condition called "daytime pressure" is suddenly introduced, though it was not mentioned previously in the methods, along with other new conditions. The manuscript requires substantial revision, particularly regarding its design, objectives, results, and interpretation. Additionally, the discussion and conclusion need to be more clearly articulated, they are many inconsistencies to allow publishing this article. That said, the authors have done commendable work with a substantial and representative sample. Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Partly Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? No Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? No If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Partly Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? No Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? No Competing Interests No competing interests were disclosed. Reviewer Expertise My research area are: Temporomandibular disorders, bruxism, ecological momentary assessment, fatigue, chewing performance and quantitative sensory testing. I confirm that I have read this submission and believe that I have an appropriate level of expertise to state that I do not consider it to be of an acceptable scientific standard, for reasons outlined above. reply Respond to this report Responses (0) Medina D.

I have few suggestions 1. Abstract – background of the study still remains unclear, could be re written in better way to improve the readership. 2. Introduction - terminologies like pushes or mandibular reinforcement, additive bruxism, jaw effort is still mentioned, are these terminologies appropriate. 3. Recheck reference number 16, it is not by Dr Alessandro Bracci. 4. The conclusion needs to be elaborated as it is too short. Competing Interests No competing interests were disclosed.

Almost paragraphs need to be rewritten, specially the last one, in which the first sentence does not make sense considering the study design, since the AB was not evaluated before or during the pandemic. Moreover, the aim needs to be better described and conclusion must be in agreement. Please, check if the BruxApp was developed by Dr Alessandro Bracci et al . The reference 16 does not match with this information, as well as the authors of reference 16 did not developed the app, I think. Statistical analysis must be inserted in the end of Methods. Please, explain why the condition of relaxation and non relaxation was associated. Why is this association important? Many paragraphs of the Discussion are results, not characterizing discussion. The Conclusion is not reliable, since stress with parafunctions were not evaluated.

The phrase “Awake bruxism was evaluated with the creation of an app that according to the authors evaluates…” it seems that the authors of this manuscript created the app. It is not possible to understand what additive bruxism is.
