A night guard protects your tooth surfaces from the wear and damage that grinding causes night after night.
Night Guards in Littleton, CO
Do you wake up with a sore jaw or aching teeth? Nighttime grinding often happens without you realizing it, wearing down enamel and straining your jaw. The team at Littleton Dental Collective eases pressure and shields your teeth while you sleep with custom night guards in Littleton, CO.
Understanding Your Treatment
What Are Night Guards?
A night guard is a custom-fitted oral appliance worn while you sleep to protect your teeth from the effects of grinding and clenching. Many people clench or grind their teeth at night, a condition called bruxism, often without any awareness they're doing it. Over time, this constant pressure can wear down enamel, cause sensitivity, and lead to jaw pain and headaches. We create a guard molded precisely to your mouth that cushions your teeth, eases the strain on your jaw, and helps you wake up feeling more comfortable.
