What Is a Night Guard?
A night guard is an oral appliance designed to act as a barrier between your upper and lower teeth, preventing them from grinding against each other and absorbing the pressure that causes jaw tension and discomfort.
A custom made night guard is tailored-made, designed to fit comfortably over your teeth, unlike over-the-counter options that can feel bulky or fall out during the night.

The Process of
Getting a Night Guard
When you come for a night guard, we evaluate your situation and determine if a night guard is the right solution for you. If it is, the first we do is take impressions or digital scans of your teeth to ensure a precise, comfortable fit. Your night guard will then be custom-crafted using durable, high-quality materials. Once it’s ready, you’ll come in for a fitting, where we’ll make any necessary adjustments to ensure it feels just right. Before you leave, we’ll walk you through how to care for it at home so it stays clean, effective, and long-lasting.
