Nightguards are specialized devices designed to protect your teeth and jaw from the adverse effects of nighttime teeth grinding (bruxism) and jaw clenching. Crafted from durable materials like acrylic plastic or soft silicone, these custom-fit guards provide a firm yet flexible barrier tailored specifically to your dental needs. By wearing a nightguard, you can prevent tooth damage, alleviate jaw pain, and enjoy a more comfortable sleep.

Who Can Benefit from Custom Night Guards?

Custom nightguards are an excellent solution for a wide range of individuals, including those who:

• Clench or grind their teeth during sleep.
• Experience bite issues that may cause uneven stress on teeth.
• Regularly participate in contact sports, requiring extra protection.
• Suffer from TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders, which can lead to pain and dysfunction in the jaw joint and muscles.

Our Digital Approach to Crafting Your Perfect Nightguard

1. Initial Dental Examination: Utilizing digital imaging technology, we conduct a detailed assessment of your oral health to tailor the nightguard to your specific needs.
2. Accurate Digital Impressions: Gone are the days of uncomfortable traditional dental molds. We use digital scanners to capture accurate impressions of your teeth quickly and comfortably.
3. Custom Fabrication with CAD/CAM Technology: Your digital impressions are processed using Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM), allowing for meticulous customization of your nightguard.
4. Precision Finishing: After shaping with precise machinery, the nightguard undergoes a cooling process, is hardened with a special liquid, and polished using specialized equipment to ensure a flawless finish.
5. Immediate Use: You’ll leave our office with your new digitally crafted nightguard ready for immediate use, providing protection from the very first night.
