Short summary
Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) injections into masticatory muscles significantly reduced EMG-detectable muscle activity in sleep bruxism patients by 0.70 to 1.31 standard deviations compared to placebo, but did not consistently reduce bruxism frequency as measured by questionnaires or clinical assessments.
