Objective
To investigate the current evidence on traditional medicine in managing bruxism and its clinical efficacy.
Conclusions
The study found that most clinical studies on traditional medicine for bruxism reported positive results, but the overall quality of the included studies was typically fair to poor. More research on traditional medicine in bruxism management is needed for better clarification and application in daily practice.
