Mouth Guards
Say goodbye to the clenching, the discomfort, and hello to a rejuvenated you.
Tooth bite guards, also known as dental guards or night guards, are protective devices for the mouth that help shield the teeth and gums from damage. They are often made from durable plastic materials and are designed to fit comfortably over your upper or lower teeth.
Bite guards are often recommended for individuals who suffer from bruxism (teeth grinding) or have a condition known as temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ). These conditions can cause a variety of symptoms, including tooth wear, jaw pain, headaches, and even disrupted sleep. By providing a protective barrier between the upper and lower teeth, a bite guard can help alleviate these symptoms, prevent further tooth damage, and promote better oral health.
Bite guards are also often used in sports to protect the mouth and teeth from potential injury.
What to Expect When Visiting the Dentist for a Bite Guard
At Woodhouse Dental, we aim to make the process of getting a bite guard as smooth and comfortable as possible.
Evaluation and Impressions: Our dentist will first evaluate your mouth and teeth to determine if a bite guard is suitable for you. If it is, we will take an impression of your teeth using a soft, mouldable material. This impression ensures that your bite guard fits your teeth perfectly for maximum comfort and protection.
Creating the Bite Guard: The impressions of your teeth are sent to a dental lab, where your custom bite guard will be crafted to fit your mouth precisely.
Fitting and Adjustments: Once your bite guard is ready, you’ll return to our clinic for a fitting. Our dentist will check that the guard fits properly and make any necessary adjustments to ensure it’s comfortable and effective.
