Nightguard and Grinding
Do you wake up with sore jaw muscles or headaches? You may be suffering from bruxism, a condition characterized by teeth grinding or clenching during sleep. At Smile.Li Dental, we offer customized nightguards to alleviate the symptoms of bruxism and protect your teeth from damage caused by grinding or clenching.
Do I Need a Nightguard?
If you experience any of the following symptoms, you may benefit from wearing a nightguard:
- Waking up with jaw pain, soreness, or stiffness
- Chronic headaches or earaches
- Noticeable wear or damage to your teeth
- Grinding or clenching sounds during sleep reported by a partner or family member
- Previous diagnosis of bruxism or TMJ disorder by a dental professional
Benefits of Custom Nightguards
- Comfort: Our custom nightguards are tailored to your unique dental anatomy, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit that won't interfere with your sleep.
- Protection: Nightguards provide a cushioning effect that absorbs the force of grinding or clenching, minimizing wear and tear on your teeth and preventing damage.
- Improved Sleep Quality: By reducing muscle tension and alleviating symptoms of bruxism, custom nightguards can help you achieve a more restful night's sleep.
- Prevention of Dental Issues: Wearing a nightguard can help prevent dental problems associated with bruxism, such as tooth wear, fractures, and TMJ disorders, saving you from costly and invasive treatments in the future.
