Abstract: Objectives: The assessment of bruxism and its clinical characteristics is acknowledged in literature. This study aimed to evaluate the association of adolescents’ facial patterns with bruxism and its related clinical features in the form of signs and symptoms. Materials and methods: Four hundred and three adolescents answered a questionnaire evaluating sleep bruxism (SB) and awake bruxism (AB). Parents/caregivers answered a questionnaire evaluating the adolescents’ sleep features (drooling on the pillow, snoring). Adolescents’ facial (dolichofacial/brachyfacial/mesofacial) and clinical features (pain in masseter/temporal muscle, indentations marks on the tongue, linea alba, tooth attrition, mouth's maximum opening and masseter electrical activity) were evaluated. Multinomial regression was performed. Odds ratio (OR) and confidence intervals (CI) were provided. Results: Brachyfacial adolescents were less likely to present possible AB compared to mesofacials (OR = 0.46, CI = 0.21–0.98). Brachyfacial adolescents were more likely to present pain in the temporal muscle (OR = 6.59, CI = 2.18–19.87) and a higher number of posterior teeth with attrition (OR = 1.25, CI = 1.02–1.57) compared to mesofacials. Dolichofacial adolescents were more likely of not presenting pain in the masseter muscle (OR = 2.23, CI = 1.03–4.83), had a higher mouth's maximum opening (OR = 1.43, CI = 1.04–1.97), had a higher number of posterior teeth with attrition (OR = 1.17, CI = 1.00–1.37) and were more likely to drool on the pillow (OR = 2.05, CI = 1.15–3.67) compared to mesofacials. Dolichofacial adolescents were more likely of not presenting pain in the temporal muscle (OR = 6.36, CI = 2.30–17.54), to present themselves without marks on the tongue (OR = 2.26, CI = 1.09–4.69) and present a higher mouth's maximum opening (OR = 2.09, CI = 1.40–3.13) compared to brachyfacials. Conclusion: Bruxism and its clinical features differ among dolichofacial, brachyfacial and mesofacial adolescents.
