Night guards & bruxism

Studies have revealed that more than half the population involuntary grind or clench during sleep. Signs of grinding or bruxism are shorter-looking teeth, a sore or tender jaw, morning headaches and neck pain. Over time, the grinding can result in worn down, chipped, more sensitive teeth. To protect from the damaging effects of nighttime clenching and grinding, a simple, affordable night guard can be worn over the top, bottom or both rows of teeth. This custom-fitted, retainer-like plastic appliance will comfortably relax the muscles in your jaw, allowing you to rest more completely and wake up feeling refreshed and ready to start the day!
