: Identify factors associated with the prevalence of reported bruxism in children/adolescents with Down Syndrome (DS). : The study included 112 children/adolescents with DS and their parents/caregivers. Oral habits, pacifier/finger sucking, upper respiratory infections (<six months), and breathing type (nasal/buccal) were diagnosed. Reported bruxism was recorded through parents' report (""). : Children/adolescents 8-12 years of age were 1.15 times more likely to belong to the group with reported bruxism (1.42-3.14). Children/adolescents 5-7 years of age were 3.38 times more likely to belong to the group with reported bruxism (1.26-9.03). Children/adolescents classified as mouth breathers were 2.87 times more likely to belong to the group with reported bruxism (1.18-6.98). : Age and mouth breathing were associated with reported bruxism. Earlier interventions should be provided in order to limit and minimize possible damage that can affect childrens' quality of life.
：确定与唐氏综合征（DS）儿童/青少年中报告的磨牙症患病率相关的因素。：该研究纳入了112名患有DS的儿童/青少年及其父母/照顾者。诊断了口腔习惯、安抚奶嘴/吮指、上呼吸道感染（<6个月）和呼吸类型（鼻/颊）。通过父母报告记录报告的磨牙症（“”）。：8至12岁的儿童/青少年属于报告有磨牙症组的可能性高1.15倍（1.42 - 3.14）。5至7岁的儿童/青少年属于报告有磨牙症组的可能性高3.38倍（1.26 - 9.03）。被归类为口呼吸者的儿童/青少年属于报告有磨牙症组的可能性高2.87倍（1.18 - 6.98）。：年龄和口呼吸与报告的磨牙症相关。应尽早进行干预，以限制并尽量减少可能影响儿童生活质量的损害。
