{"title":"Let's Start Using the BruxScreen to Perform the Still-Needed Psychometric Tests","authors":"Frank Lobbezoo, Jari Ahlberg, Laura Nykänen, Daniele Manfredini, Merel C. Verhoeff","doi":"10.1111/joor.13888","DOIUrl":"10.1111/joor.13888","url":null,"abstract":"<p>With great interest, we have read the Commentary ‘Letter to the editor regarding the bruxism screener questionnaire (BruxScreen)’ by Grossi & Filho [<span>1</span>]. The authors comment on the 5-point verbal scale that we proposed to score the self-report items in the first part of the BruxScreen, the BruxScreen-Q [<span>2</span>]. More specifically, their concerns are related to the first question with six bruxism items, and most specifically to the items that deal with sleep bruxism (SB). According to Grossi & Filho, the response options of these items (i.e., never, sometimes, regularly, often, always and don't know) may give rise to misinterpretation [<span>1</span>]. They state that response options that identify a specific time relation (e.g., the number of bruxism occurrences per week or month) should be used instead. They argue that such an approach would better match the criteria that have been used by Lavigne et al. [<span>3</span>] and Rompré et al. [<span>4</span>] to select the patients for their studies establishing polysomnographically (PSG-)based cut-off criteria for SB diagnosis.</p><p>Although their reasoning is clear, some issues need to be pointed out. First, Lavigne et al. [<span>3</span>] and Rompré et al. [<span>4</span>] did not intend to develop true diagnostic cut-off criteria, and certainly not a ‘one size fits all’ application of their criteria to be used for all patients with SB, regardless of their specific phenotypes. Rather, Lavigne et al. [<span>3</span>] proposed their finding to be used for research purposes, whereas Rompré et al. [<span>4</span>] looked for a distinction between SB subgroups with different risks of pain. In line with this, Manfredini et al. discussed the need to abandon the use of cut-off criteria for establishing the presence or absence of bruxism [<span>5</span>]. Instead, they suggested to consider all relevant measures and values for the characterisation of the various types of bruxism. An important reason for this is that it is impossible to pinpoint which amount and type of bruxism are associated with which potential negative (e.g., temporomandibular disorders, mechanical tooth wear and failure of dental restorations) or positive (e.g., opening a collapsed upper airway in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea and exerting a positive effect on cognitive function) health outcome, if any [<span>6</span>]. In case of multiple health outcomes, the situation is even more complex. Thus, using cut-off values as a ‘one size fits all’ approach to establishing the presence or absence of bruxism is no longer appropriate.</p><p>Second, the reasoning by Grossi & Filho [<span>1</span>], that scoring bruxism on a scale that consists of response options with a specific time relation fits better with the work of Lavigne et al. [<span>3</span>] and Rompré et al. [<span>4</span>], suffers from circular reasoning. The PSG-based cut-off criteria of Lavigne et al.
