Effectively Treat The Symptoms Of Bruxism With Bruxism Nightguards
Bruxism nightguards protect your teeth from the effects of clenching and grinding while you sleep. At Kirkland Lake Dental Office in Kirkland Lake, we provide custom-made bruxism nightguards that can help reduce the impact of bruxism by creating a physical barrier between your top and bottom teeth.
What is involved in getting bruxism nightguards?
Our experienced dentist and staff will work with you to create a comfortable, custom fit for your nightguard. During the process, we’ll take impressions of your teeth and ensure that the nightguard fits properly each time it is worn. We may also recommend repairs to your damaged teeth, which ensures a good long-term fit for your nightguard.
What are the symptoms of bruxism?
Symptoms include pain or stiffness in the jaw, sensitive, loose, or broken teeth, sore gums, sores on the insides of the mouth, a popping or clicking sound in your jaw joint, morning headaches, eroded teeth, and daytime fatigue. Untreated bruxism can lead to worn tooth enamel, increasing your risk for decay. Severe bruxism may lead to cracked or chipped teeth and even tooth loss.
What are the benefits of bruxism nightguards?
Nightguards can help reduce pain in your jaw, headaches, and even neck and shoulder discomfort caused by grinding or clenching. Nightguards can also help prevent further damage to the teeth.
Who is a good candidate for bruxism nightguards?
People experiencing any of the symptoms mentioned above should consider getting a bruxism nightguard. Additionally, if your teeth are becoming worn or chipped due to grinding and clenching while sleeping, it’s best to see our dentist as soon as possible for treatment.
