Occlusal Night Guards

Overview

Mesa Dental Group

If you’ve ever woken up with a sore jaw, tooth pain, or a headache, then you know the struggle of sleep bruxism (chronic teeth grinding). Because it happens in your sleep, stopping it can be very difficult, but one way to protect your teeth from the damaging effects of grinding is to wear a custom night guard.

Protect Your Teeth From Grinding and Clenching While You Sleep

The Woes of Bruxism

How a Night Guard Helps

Wearing a night guard provides a cushioning effect so that your upper and lower teeth can’t wear away at each other. It protects your teeth from external damage caused by grinding, such as chipping and erosion. However, it is not a cure for a grinding habit, and as long as the grinding continues, some symptoms such as jaw pain may not change.

How Do I Get My Night Guard?

If you think you have sleep bruxism, don’t wait for the symptoms to worsen; call (858) 504-7849 or email us to schedule an appointment, and Dr. Cherishma Jami, Dr. Craig Deagle, and Dr. Cameron Hamidi can determine the right solution for you and fit you for your custom night guard. We can also discuss other methods of reducing your grinding symptoms, such as lowering stress levels. We look forward to seeing you!
