Custom Nightguards – Gentle Protection for Your Smile
Bruxism is the habit of grinding or clenching the teeth. For many of our patients, this happens during sleep. For others, stress or jaw tension triggers grinding or clenching throughout the day. No matter the cause, protecting tooth enamel from constant pressure is essential to your oral health.
Why a Custom Nightguard Makes All the Difference
A custom nightguard provides the protection your teeth need. Designed to fit your bite perfectly, this small device shields teeth from the damage caused by teeth grinding. Also known as occlusal guards or splints, nightguards are worn while sleeping and absorb the pressure from clenching and grinding. With the help of a custom nightguard, many of our Lakeside Dental patients wake up without the usual jaw soreness or tension headaches caused by tooth grinding and clenching. Some even notice fewer bruxism episodes over time, simply from wearing the guard consistently.
