Night guards
Clenching and grinding often happen subconsciously, especially during sleep. Over time, this can cause enamel wear, chipped edges, jaw tension, morning headaches, and even fractured teeth. A custom-made night guard is a simple, effective way to protect your teeth and give your jaw muscles a break each night. Many patients say they didn’t realize how much strain they were holding until they started wearing one.
How your guard is made
- A digital impression is taken to capture the shape of your teeth and bite
- Your guard is designed to fit smoothly and precisely — not bulky or loose
- At your fitting appointment, we fine-tune the fit so it feels secure yet comfortable
- We review how to clean and store the guard, and when to bring it in for maintenance checks
Why a custom guard helps
A properly fitted night guard can:
- Absorb pressure and protect the biting surfaces of your teeth
- Reduce jaw tightness and morning soreness
- Help minimize tension-related headaches
- Preserve natural tooth structure and help prevent the need for restorative treatment over time
