Night guards

Many people grind or clench their teeth at night without knowing it. A custom night guard cushions the teeth so they stop wearing each other down.

Signs you may be grinding

Flattened or chipped teeth, sensitive teeth, a sore jaw or a dull headache in the morning, or a partner who hears the grinding at night.

Why a custom guard

A guard made from an impression of your own teeth fits closely, stays in place and is more comfortable than one bought in a store — so you actually wear it.

Questions
