Abstract
Objectives: Occlusal splints (OS) are often used for the treatment of temporomandibular disorders (TMDs),bruxism, and occlusal disturbance, although the splint s effect on oral tissue has not been investigated enough. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of OS on halitosis, periodontal status and salivary flow rate (SFR)in patients with bruxism.Material and Methods: A total of 43 patients with bruxism participated in this study. Plaque index (PI),bleeding on probing (BoP), probing pocket depth (PPD), SFR and halitosis measurement were performedimmediately before treatment and 3 months following the completion of the baseline treatment protocol.Results: The present study saw that the use of OS for three months did not affected the periodontal status. Therewas significant increase in the level of halitosis and also the level of SFR after the use of OS (p
