Neck pain, teeth grinding, and mouth behaviors study
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial looks at how chronic neck pain is linked to teeth grinding (bruxism) and other mouth-related habits. It aims to see if muscle thickness in your jaw is related to your neck pain.

This study looks at how teeth grinding (bruxism) is linked to pelvic pain, erectile function, and anxiety in young adult men. It aims to understand if these issues are connected, which could help develop better treatments.
This trial looks at how your head, neck, and jaw work together to understand why some people have more severe jaw joint (TMD) pain. If you have jaw pain, the findings may help researchers identify better treatments.
This study measures the thickness of a jaw muscle (masseter) in people with ongoing neck pain. It aims to understand if neck pain is linked to changes in this muscle.
This study tests a biopsychosocial questionnaire (a survey about thoughts, daily life, and pain) for people with jaw-related headaches from temporomandibular disorder (TMD). It may help researchers better understand what influences headache severity and how to support treatment planning.
This study explores the link between obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops during sleep) and bruxism (teeth grinding at night). By understanding this connection, researchers hope to improve diagnosis and treatment for people experiencing both conditions.
