Safeguarding Your Smile While You Sleep
What Are Nightguards?
Dentist Burlington
Nightguards are custom-made dental appliances designed to protect your teeth from the effects of teeth grinding (bruxism) during sleep. Dr. Beth Haymore offers personalized nightguards to help prevent tooth wear, jaw pain, and headaches caused by nighttime grinding or clenching. These comfortable, durable devices are worn while you sleep, providing a protective barrier between your upper and lower teeth.
Grinding your teeth at night can cause significant damage to your teeth, including cracks, fractures, and enamel erosion. It can also lead to discomfort in your jaw, neck, and head. Nightguards are designed to reduce this pressure and protect your teeth, allowing you to wake up feeling refreshed and pain-free.
