Night Guards
What Are Dental Night Guards?
Dental night guards are custom-fitted oral appliances made of plastic, silicone, or acrylic. They are used to protect your teeth from grinding (bruxism) and clenching while you sleep.
How Do Dental Night Guards Work?
Dental night guards are designed to wear over your teeth to cushion them from the bite force produced when you grind them. A night guard will also help reduce the pressure on your jaw joints.
The Benefits of Wearing a Dental Night Guard
- Helps prevent enamel erosion and tooth damage.
- Designed to make it easier for you to breathe.
- They are comfortable and can reduce discomfort. But only if they are custom-made by a professional. Over-the-counter night guards usually don’t fit properly, are uncomfortable, and can damage your teeth.
