Night Guards

A custom night guard is a specially made oral appliance designed to protect your teeth from the effects of grinding and clenching, also known as bruxism. Crafted from durable, high-quality materials, these guards create a protective barrier between your upper and lower teeth. This helps to absorb the forces of grinding, preventing damage like chips, cracks, and excessive wear. Wearing a night guard acts as a preventative measure, safeguarding your smile and overall oral health.

Many people grind or clench their teeth without realizing it, often during sleep. However, your body might be sending you signals that a night guard could help. Common signs include waking up with a dull, persistent headache or a sore jaw. You might also notice unusual tooth sensitivity or even visible wear on your teeth, such as flattened surfaces or small chips. If you experience any of these symptoms, we encourage you to speak with our dental team. We can help determine if teeth grinding is the cause and explore suitable solutions.
