Night guards are a simple yet effective solution for protecting your teeth from the effects of grinding or clenching during sleep, a condition known as bruxism. Our dentist and team specialize in custom-fitting night guards to prevent the wear and tear on your teeth that can lead to sensitivity, pain and even long-term damage. Our tailored approach ensures that each night guard fits comfortably and precisely, offering optimal protection while you sleep.
The process of getting a night guard starts with an evaluation of your dental health and an impression of your teeth. This impression is used to create a night guard that perfectly conforms to your bite, ensuring it is both effective in mitigating the effects of bruxism and comfortable enough to wear all night. Made from durable, high-quality materials, our night guards are designed to withstand the pressures of grinding and clenching, providing a barrier that protects your teeth and alleviates strain on your jaw muscles.
Benefits of using a night guard include:
- Prevention of tooth wear and protection against potential cracks or fractures
- Reduction in jaw pain, headaches and other symptoms associated with bruxism
- Improved sleep quality due to the alleviation of discomfort caused by teeth grinding
- Long-term savings on dental repairs that might otherwise be necessary due to damage from bruxism
