What Are Night Guards?
Night guards are custom-fitted oral appliances worn during sleep to prevent damage from teeth grinding (bruxism) and jaw clenching. They act as a protective cushion, reducing pressure on teeth and jaw joints, protecting enamel from wear, and alleviating jaw pain and morning headaches that often accompany grinding habits.
Types of Night Guards
Soft Night Guards: Ideal for mild clenching and grinding. Comfortable, flexible material that's gentle on teeth and gums.\n\nDual Laminate Guards: Soft inside for comfort, hard outside for durability. Perfect for moderate grinders who need balanced protection.\n\nHard Acrylic Guards: Rigid and extremely durable, recommended for severe grinding and TMJ support.

Consultation & Diagnosis
We examine your teeth, bite pattern, and symptoms to confirm bruxism diagnosis and assess the extent of grinding damage.
Precision Impressions
Accurate digital scans or traditional impressions ensure a snug, comfortable fit perfectly tailored to your unique bite pattern.
