Bruxism

We have effective options for you!

Do you grind your teeth at night?

Bruxism

Bruxism, or teeth grinding, is an often involuntary disorder that occurs mainly during sleep, but can also occur during the day. It manifests itself as clenching or rubbing of the teeth, leading to dental pain, headaches, and premature tooth wear. Causes include stress, anxiety, or sleep disorders.

Night guard

Night guard is a custom-made device designed to be worn at night to prevent damage caused by teeth grinding or clenching, often associated with bruxism. It acts as a protective barrier, distributing pressure and preventing premature tooth wear and trauma to the periodontium, i.e., the tissues that support the teeth.

Made from durable and comfortable materials, this guard helps preserve long-term oral health. Regular use is recommended to reduce muscle pain, tooth fractures, and temporomandibular joint disorders.
