Do you wake up with jaw pain, headaches, or sensitive teeth? You may be grinding or clenching your teeth at night—a condition known as bruxism. Over time, this can lead to tooth wear, fractures, gum recession, and even TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders.
At Marigold Dental and Orthodontic Clinic, we offer custom-made night guards designed to
protect your teeth from the harmful effects of grinding and clenching while you sleep. Our premium-grade, custom-fit night guards provide superior comfort and protection, ensuring you wake up feeling refreshed and pain-free.
Bruxism is often an unconscious habit, making it difficult to detect until symptoms appear. Some
common signs that you might need a night guard include:
Waking up with jaw pain, tension, or headaches
Teeth that appear worn down, chipped, or fractured
Increased tooth sensitivity
Disruptive grinding sounds during sleep
Gum recession or signs of stress on the teeth and jaw
If you experience any of these symptoms, our expert dentists can assess your condition and
provide a custom-fit night guard to protect your teeth and jaw.
Benefits of a Custom Night Guard
Prevents Tooth Damage
Acts as a protective barrier between teeth, reducing wear and fractures.
Reduces Jaw Pain & TMJ Disorders
Relieves pressure on the jaw joint and muscles, minimizing discomfort.
Alleviates Morning Headaches
Prevents strain that contributes to tension headaches.
Enhances Sleep Quality
Reduces noise from teeth grinding, leading to a more restful sleep
Protects Dental Work
Helps safeguard veneers, crowns, and other restorations from damage.
Custom Night Guards vs. Over-the-Counter Options
Unlike generic, store-bought night guards, custom-made night guards are:
Designed to fit your teeth perfectly for superior comfort and effectiveness.
Made from high-quality, durable materials that last longer.
Less bulky and more comfortable to wear while sleeping.
With proper care, a custom night guard can last several years. However, if you grind heavily, it may need replacement sooner.
Can a night guard help with TMJ pain?
Yes! A night guard helps reduce pressure on the jaw joint, alleviating discomfort associated with TMJ disorders.
How do I clean my night guard?
Rinse it with cool water after use and brush it gently with a toothbrush and mild soap. Avoid hot water as it can warp the material.
Can I wear a night guard if I have veneers or crowns?
Absolutely. In fact, wearing a night guard is recommended to protect veneers and crowns
from damage due to grinding.
How do I know if I need a night guard?
If you experience jaw pain, headaches, or notice signs of teeth grinding, schedule a
consultation with our dental experts to determine if a night guard is right for you.
