Bruxism Treatment / Night Guards

Teeth grinding (bruxism) often happens during sleep, so the signs show up in other ways. You may need a night guard if you notice:

• Jaw soreness — especially when you wake up
• Morning headaches — often around the temples
• Worn or flat teeth — from repeated grinding
• Chipped or cracked teeth — or broken fillings
• Tooth sensitivity — as enamel wears down
• A partner hears grinding — while you’re asleep

A custom-fit night guard is far more comfortable and protective than a store-bought one, and it helps prevent costly damage to your teeth.
