Night Guard
Night Guards represent a pivotal solution in the realm of dental services, primarily focusing on preventing the repercussions of teeth grinding and clenching, which commonly occur during sleep, known medically as bruxism. Understanding the significance and proper utilization of Night Guards is essential to maximizing their benefits.
Understanding the Service
A Night Guard is a dental appliance designed to be worn while sleeping to protect teeth from the damage caused by grinding and clenching. The process of obtaining a Night Guard involves a thorough dental examination, followed by the creation of a customized appliance designed to fit the unique structure of an individual’s teeth perfectly.
