Occlusal/Night Guards
Over 40% of the population grinds their teeth during the night and most do not even realize they are doing it. By looking at your teeth we can determine if they exhibit the wear patterns of grinding/bruxing. Grinding can not only wear down, fracture, or break your teeth it can cause serious pain and discomfort in your TMJ (Jaw) Joint.
We design our night guards to place your jaw joint in its most comfortable position, which is the most posterior superior position. This prevents you from wearing your teeth and gives relief to the TMJ joint.
