Night Guards for Teeth Grinding | Burbank, CA
Do you suffer from bruxism, teeth grinding or clenching during sleep or wakefulness? It’s a condition affecting 10% of adults, often going unnoticed as it primarily occurs at night, leading to painful jaws and morning headaches. Over time, teeth shorten, making restoration challenging. Since bruxism is involuntary, countering it can be tricky. BrightCraft Dental and Laser recommends night guards as a solution to mitigate these negative effects.
What are night guards?
✓ Night guards are oral devices protecting teeth from grinding and clenching.
✓ These soft, custom-made dental appliances are worn overnight, preventing further tooth damage.
✓ Tailored to fit your mouth and bite, they cover biting surfaces comfortably.
✓ Dentist-made guards provide preventive dental care, averting chipping, cracking, and muscle stress.
Securing your custom night guard at BrightCraft Dental and Laser is a breeze, requiring just two concise visits.
✓ Initial Visit: We craft an impression of your upper and lower teeth.
✓ Lab Fabrication: The impression is sent to the lab for night guard creation, with material options like soft, dual laminate, or hard acrylic. We’ll guide you in selecting the most suitable material.
✓ Custom-Fitted Night Guard: Using your chosen material, we craft your personalized night guard.
✓ Final Fitting: Your follow-up visit involves night guard fitting, accompanied by usage and care instructions.
