Why Should I Choose NightGuards

A nightguard is a dental appliance designed to safeguard your teeth while you sleep. Typically, your dentist suggests using a nightguard if you grind your teeth. Bruxism, commonly known as teeth grinding, is a dental issue impacting numerous American children and adults. While there are various potential causes of bruxism, many can be effectively managed with the utilization of a nightguard or preventive dental interventions.

Stop Teeth Grinding While You Sleep

Grinding your teeth during sleep can lead to serious damage, including cracks and fractures. Those with Bruxism may not immediately recognize the issue, as grinding typically occurs while asleep. However, several symptoms can indicate teeth grinding during sleep.

The most noticeable sign is the visible wear and tear on teeth. If you observe uneven edges or a reduction in tooth length, it's likely you're grinding your teeth during sleep. Other less apparent symptoms include waking up with tooth sensitivity or jaw pain.

While over-the-counter nightguards are available, they lack customization to fit your teeth and mouth precisely. At Dental Home Family Dentistry , our nightguards are crafted from impressions of your teeth, ensuring a comfortable fit and effective prevention of teeth grinding.

While nightguards can alleviate teeth grinding during sleep, it's crucial to identify the underlying causes. If you suspect teeth grinding, contact us at Dental Home Family Dentistry to schedule an assessment with our Phoenix dentist today!. We'll provide you with a customized nightguard and address any underlying dental issues.
