Grinding and clenching, often overnight, quietly wears down teeth and triggers jaw pain and headaches. A custom night guard protects you while you sleep.
Bruxism is the involuntary clenching or grinding of teeth, usually during sleep and sometimes when concentrating. It's multifactorial: stress and anxiety, sleep fragmentation, certain medications, alcohol or caffeine, and airway issues can all play a role. Because it often happens during sleep, most people aren't aware of it.
Typical signs are morning jaw tightness, tension headaches, flattened or chipped teeth, sensitivity, and cracked fillings. We diagnose by combining your history with an exam, then make a slim, custom night guard (an occlusal splint) that spreads biting forces, shields your teeth and restorations, and relaxes the bite night after night.
