The aim of this study was to systematically review the relationship between oral habits (bruxism- temporomandibular disorders) and COVID-19 pandemic in adults and adolescents.
A comprehensive search of the literature through PubMed, Scopus, Embase, google scholar and Cochrane databases was conducted. Such keywords as COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, bruxism, adult, and adolescent were used.
In the initial search 818 articles were obtained; 68 cases were duplicates and excluded. By reviewing the article title, 714 articles were removed because they were not relevant to the topic. The remaining articles were reviewed, and studies that did not meet the inclusion criteria, as well as letter to editors and expert opinions were excluded. Finally, 11 articles were allowed to enter the study. Out of 11 related articles, 5 studies were excluded from the present study due to mismatch of the target population; and finally 6 articles were thoroughly reviewed.
Studies have shown that stress caused by the COVID-19 pandemic increases detrimental oral habits such as bruxism as well as temporomandibular disorders in adults and adolescents; In general, young single women are at high risk and more exposed to these harmful oral habits.
本研究旨在系统回顾成人和青少年口腔习惯（磨牙症-颞下颌关节紊乱）与 COVID-19 大流行之间的关系。
通过 PubMed、Scopus、Embase、google scholar 和 Cochrane 数据库进行全面的文献检索。使用了 COVID-19、SARS-CoV-2、磨牙症、成人和青少年等关键词。
在最初的搜索中获得了 818 篇文章；其中 68 篇为重复项并被排除。通过查看文章标题，又排除了 714 篇不相关的文章。对剩余的文章进行了审查，并排除了不符合纳入标准的研究，以及信件给编辑和专家意见。最终有 11 篇文章被允许进入研究。在 11 篇相关文章中，有 5 项研究因目标人群不匹配而被排除在本研究之外；最终有 6 篇文章被深入审查。
研究表明，COVID-19 大流行带来的压力增加了磨牙症和成人及青少年颞下颌关节紊乱等有害口腔习惯；总的来说，年轻的单身女性风险更高，更容易受到这些有害口腔习惯的影响。
