Night Guards / Mouth Guards

A night guard can protect your teeth during the night from the damaging effects of bruxism.

Signs and symptoms of bruxism include:
Teeth grinding during the night or clenching during the day and/or night, tooth wear, teeth sensitivity and pain in the face (muscles), ears (due to severe jaw muscle contraction), and tension headaches.

The wear in your teeth caused by bruxism can affect aesthetics, efficiency in mastication (chewing), result in sensitivity from the exposed dentin and have effects on your TMJ.

A mouth guard treatment helps to alleviate pain and detect any problems with your bite (occlusion).
