If you experience severe tooth, jaw, or facial muscle pain, it may be from the effects of grinding or clenching your teeth, an involuntary habit called bruxism. While some people do so consciously during waking hours, it is during sleep where habit can be most harmful. To relieve this condition your dentist may be able to prescribe a custom-made Night Guard, which offsets the pain caused by grinding your teeth.
A night guard is a device used to protect your existing healthy teeth and temporomandibular joint. This custom-made bite splint is a clear, thin removable device that is worn over your lower or upper teeth as you sleep.
Studies suggest those who grind and clench their teeth may experience up to eighty times the normal tooth wear per day compared to those who do not. The good news is that a simple night guard can offset the effects of this subconscious habit while protecting your teeth from daily wear and tear.
