Stop Dental Damage With a Comfortable Mouthguard

Whether you are an athlete, struggle with teeth grinding, or snore at night, a mouthguard can protect your smile from damage or injury. We offer several types of mouthguards depending on your needs, including:

  • Athletic Mouthguard – Millions of teeth are knocked out every year during recreational sports. By wearing a mouthguard, you are 60 times less likely to suffer a dental injury. Our custom-made mouthguards will fit comfortably in your mouth, allowing you to speak, breathe, and talk easily.
  • Night Guard – Stress often causes people to grind and clench their teeth unknowingly. You might do this in your sleep without being aware of it. Frequent morning headaches and jaw pains are signs you grind your teeth at night. Your personalized night guard will keep your top and bottom teeth separated and your jaw in a more relaxed position to ease your headaches and other symptoms, too. If misaligned teeth are an issue, you may want to consider orthodontics as well.
  • Oral Appliance for Sleep Apnea – Teeth grinding can also be a symptom of obstructive sleep apnea. If you have this sleep disorder, your airway becomes blocked and you stop breathing during sleep. This causes you to wake up throughout the night and results in frequent daytime sleepiness. Your custom-made oral appliance will comfortably shift your jaw forward slightly to keep your airway open. You will snore less and get the deep sleep you need.
