Effective Night Guards for Teeth Grinding at Winfield Dental Studio
Night guards help patients who suffer from teeth grinding and clenching, also known as bruxism. These night guards are designed to fit snugly over the teeth, providing a cushion against grinding and reducing the risk of tooth damage and other dental problems.
Dr. Ryan and Dr. Jolynn Kuebler uses the latest dental technology and materials to create night guards that are comfortable, durable, and effective. At Winfield Dental Studio, we work with each patient to create a night guard that fits their unique dental anatomy and provides the level of protection needed to alleviate their bruxism symptoms.
Night guards are dental appliances that are worn over the teeth while sleeping to help protect against teeth grinding and clenching, also known as bruxism. Bruxism can cause tooth damage, headaches, jaw pain, and other dental problems, and may even lead to tooth loss if left untreated.
There are several types of night guards available, including over-the-counter options and custom-fitted night guards created by a dentist. Custom-fitted night guards are typically more comfortable and effective, as they are designed to fit the patient's unique dental anatomy.
Night guards work by providing a cushion against grinding and clenching, reducing the pressure on the teeth and jaw and preventing tooth damage. They can also help alleviate symptoms such as headaches, jaw pain, and facial tension, improving the quality of sleep and reducing daytime fatigue.
Night guards are an important investment in dental health for individuals who suffer from bruxism. By protecting against tooth damage and alleviating symptoms, they can help maintain healthy teeth and gums and improve the overall quality of life.
Who Should Get Night Guards?
Night guards are recommended for individuals who suffer from bruxism, which includes both children and adults.
People with a history of tooth grinding or clenching, as well as those who have a family history of the condition, may be at an increased risk and should consider using night guards.
