What are Mouthguards and Nightguards?

Mouthguards and nightguards are custom-made dental devices designed to protect your teeth and oral health. Each serves a unique purpose in safeguarding your smile, whether during physical activities or while you sleep.

Nightguards for Bruxism (Teeth Grinding)

Nightguards are specifically designed for individuals who grind their teeth or clench their jaws during sleep, a condition known as bruxism.

Over time, teeth grinding can lead to tooth wear, fractures, jaw pain, and headaches. A custom nightguard creates a protective barrier between your upper and lower teeth, preventing damage and alleviating the discomfort associated with bruxism. By wearing a nightguard, you can protect your teeth from the long-term effects of grinding and wake up feeling more refreshed.
