The Benefits Of Night Guards
Night guards act as a protective layer between your upper and lower teeth. They prevent the wear and tear caused by grinding or clenching, which can lead to tooth sensitivity, chipped or cracked teeth, and even tooth loss. With a custom-fit night guard, you can rest assured that your teeth are safe while you sleep.
Chronic teeth grinding and clenching can lead to various discomforts, including headaches, facial pain, and jaw disorders. A night guard helps alleviate these symptoms by reducing the pressure on your teeth and jaw muscles. It allows your jaw to rest and recover, significantly reducing pain and discomfort.
Teeth grinding and clenching can disrupt your sleep, leaving you feeling tired and unrefreshed in the morning. A night guard helps to prevent these disturbances, allowing you to enjoy a more restful and uninterrupted sleep. With better sleep, you can wake up feeling refreshed and ready to face the day.
The Night Guard Treatment Process
The first step is simple! You’ll start with a comprehensive consultation and examination with Dr. Derrik Johnson. He will assess your oral health, discuss your symptoms, and determine if a night guard is the right solution for you.
If a night guard is right for you, Dr. Johnson will take precise dental impressions of your teeth. These impressions will be used to create a night guard that fits your mouth, focusing on maximum comfort and effectiveness.
Once your custom night guard is ready, you'll return to our office for a fitting. Our Lyons dentist will ensure that the guard fits correctly and comfortably. If necessary, he will make minor adjustments for a seamless, comfortable fit.
