We know grinding your teeth isn’t always intentional, but it can still have a lot of negative side effects. It wears down your enamel, altering your bite and increasing sensitivity. The pressure and shifting of grinding can also cause teeth to crack, chip, fracture, or loosen. The negative impacts go beyond your teeth, as grinding can also cause headaches and jaw pain.
Night Guards Overview
Many people who grind their teeth turn to night guards to protect their enamel. Night guards go beyond stopping wear on your teeth, because easing the grinding action also relieves tension and can improve symptoms like headaches.

Night guards provide relief for:

How Night Guards Work
Night guards work to ease symptoms by providing a barrier between your upper and lower teeth. This buffer helps to cushion your teeth, prevent wear, and discourage clenching.
