Contact UsWhat is a dental nightguard?
A dental nightguard, also known as a bite guard, is a protective oral appliance that covers the teeth and gums to prevent and reduce the effects of teeth grinding and jaw clenching. When worn during sleep, the nightguard acts as a protective barrier. Dental nightguards provide a cost-effective and non-invasive solution to safeguard your oral health and improve your quality of sleep.
Storebought vs. Custom Nightguards
While you can find nightguards at a variety of stores, they aren’t always the most dependable to wear. Storebought nightguards tend to be more generic and less comfortable as they aren’t custom-crafted for your oral cavity. On the other hand, our custom nightguards fit specifically to your oral cavity. We go through a process to custom-make your nightguard, which is always crafted from high-quality dental material to last for months.
