At our dental practice, we offer night guard services to help protect your teeth from the effects of bruxism (teeth grinding) and TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders. Bruxism is a common condition that affects many people and can lead to a variety of dental problems such as worn down teeth, headaches, and jaw pain. A night guard is a custom-made, comfortable oral appliance that is worn while sleeping to prevent grinding and clenching of the teeth. Our team will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and jaws to determine if a night guard is appropriate for you. If so, we will take an impression of your teeth and create a custom-fit night guard that is specifically designed to fit your unique bite. The night guard is made from a durable, comfortable material that is easy to wear and clean. It sits comfortably in your mouth, creating a barrier between your upper and lower teeth and preventing grinding and clenching. Wearing a night guard can help to prevent dental problems caused by bruxism, such as worn down teeth, headaches and jaw pain. It can also help to improve the quality of your sleep and reduce the risk of developing TMJ disorders. If you are experiencing the symptoms of bruxism or have been diagnosed with a TMJ disorder, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. Our team is here to help you and ensure that you receive the best care possible.
