Nightguards
Preventing mouth injuries is essential when engaging in many different forms of recreational activity where injuries to the face are a possibility. Mouthguards are the key answer to protecting your teeth during all of these different activities as well as for any patient that experiences teeth grinding.
Why This Treatment
Benefits of Nightguards
Reduce jaw strain
Mouthguards create a barrier between your upper and lower teeth, reducing chipping, cracking, flattening and enamel damage.
Protect dental work
Crowns, Veneers, Fillings and other restorations can be damaged by heavy grinding; a guard can provide additional protection.
May help with headaches
If nighttime clenching contributes to tension type headaches, reducing the clenching force may help.
