浅议磨牙症的中医辨证及施治

TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment of bruxism

磨牙是不为人们所注意的一个临床症状,剧烈的磨牙能引起患者许多不适症状,也能导致牙齿以及周围组织的严重损害。早在古代中医对此症就有较为深刻的认识,但是由于古代中医文献和现在临床经验报道比较散乱,此症一直缺乏完整的理论和辨证总结,故在临床诊治过程中本症缺乏完整的病因病机和辨治认识。作者通过文献研究及临床经验总结,对磨牙症的病因病机和辨证治疗分别进行阐述。

Bruxism is a clinical symptom not noticed by people, and severe bruxism can cause many discomfort symptoms, and it can also severely damage teeth and surrounding tissue. TCM has a more profound understanding on this disease in ancient times early, because the complete theory and the summary of syndrome diferentiation of bruxism is defcient for the scattered ancient TCM literature and modern clinical experience report, the complete knowledge of etiology, pathogenesis and the syndrome diferentiation is lack in the clinical diagnosis. Through literature research and clinical experience, the etiology and pathogenesis and diferential treatment of bruxism disease were expounded in this article.
