Custom night guards

Many people are afflicted with bruxism (clenching and grinding teeth during sleep or awake time). They may be aware or unaware of doing this.

Bruxism may damage enamel, wear down teeth, cause jaw pain, irritate the associated tissues or lead to chronic headaches and migraines, ear or neck pain. These symptoms are called Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ). If left untreated, bruxism can damage the joint that connects the lower and upper jaw, and cause the teeth to wear down.
