Student’s t-test was used for normally distributed variables. In the case of variables with a distribution other than normal, the Mann–Whitney U-test was used. BEI—bruxism episode index, BBI—bruxism burst index, AHI—apnea/hypopnea index, ODI—oxygen desaturation index, TST—total sleep time, SL—sleep latency, REML—rapid eye movement latency, WASO—wake after sleep onset, SE—sleep efficiency, N1—non-rapid eye movement 1, N2—non-rapid eye movement 2, N3—non-rapid eye movement 3, REM—rapid eye movement.
