Summary A biochemical test for muscle damaghe (serum creatine kinase estimation) was used to investigate twenty‐six normal subjects, nine normal subjects following experimental bruxism and twenty‐seven patients suffering from mandibular pain dysfunction. No significant differences in serum creatine kinase levels were detected between any of the groups.
