Bite guards and night guards are essential dental devices designed to protect your teeth and improve your oral health. These custom-made appliances are perfect for individuals who suffer from teeth grinding (bruxism), jaw clenching, or other related issues during sleep or the day.
What Are Bite Guards & Night Guards?
A bite guard or night guard is a soft or hard dental appliance that fits over your upper or lower teeth. These devices help absorb the pressure from clenching or grinding, preventing damage to your teeth, gums, and jaw. They also reduce the discomfort and pain that can come with these habits.
Why Do You Need Bite Guards & Night Guards?
Prevent Teeth Grinding (Bruxism): Many people unknowingly grind or clench their teeth while sleeping or even during the day. Over time, this can lead to tooth wear, tooth sensitivity, and even cracked or chipped teeth. Bite guards help cushion your teeth, reducing the damage caused by grinding.
Reduce Jaw Pain: Clenching and grinding can strain the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and cause jaw pain, headaches, and neck stiffness. A night guard can help alleviate this pressure, promoting better jaw relaxation and pain relief.
Protect Your Restorations: If you have dental work such as crowns, bridges, or implants, bite guards provide extra protection, ensuring that these restorations are not damaged by grinding or clenching.
Improved Sleep Quality: For people suffering from bruxism, using a night guard can improve sleep quality by reducing the discomfort caused by teeth grinding, allowing you to wake up feeling refreshed.
How Bite Guards & Night Guards Help:
- Prevent Tooth Damage: Guards act as a barrier to prevent direct contact between teeth, minimizing wear.
- Enhance Comfort: Reducing jaw tension and pain, especially in the morning after a night of clenching.
- Custom-Fit Design: Tailored to your teeth for optimal comfort and protection.
