Participants were evaluated using the Standardized Tool for the Assessment of Bruxism (STAB), which included self\u2010reported behavior and clinical examination for signs such as linea alba, lip\/tongue impressions, and tooth wear using the Tooth Wear Evaluation System. A validated 7\u2010item questionnaire assessed knowledge and attitudes.

Though 66.9% had adequate knowledge of bruxism, only 29.04% exhibited a positive preventive attitude.
