How do I know if I need a nightguard?
Signs like worn-down teeth, jaw soreness, headaches upon waking, or a partner noticing you grind your teeth at night are all good reasons to ask your dentist about a nightguard.
Are custom nightguards better than store-bought ones?
Yes. Custom nightguards are molded to your exact bite, making them far more comfortable and effective at protecting your teeth than generic, one-size-fits-all versions from the drugstore.
How long does a nightguard last?
With proper care, a custom nightguard typically lasts several years. We'll check its fit and condition at your regular visits.
Do kids need mouthguards for sports?
Yes, especially for contact sports. A custom-fitted mouthguard offers far better protection than boil-and-bite versions and is comfortable enough that kids are more likely to actually wear it.
