What Are Nightguards?
Dentist Columbus
Nightguards are custom-fitted oral appliances designed to prevent damage caused by nighttime teeth grinding (bruxism) and clenching. Bruxism can lead to worn enamel, tooth fractures, gum recession, and jaw pain. A nightguard creates a protective barrier between the upper and lower teeth, reducing the impact of grinding and preventing enamel erosion. Custom nightguards are made from durable, high-quality materials that cushion your bite and prevent tooth-on-tooth contact.
The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends nightguards for patients who experience symptoms of bruxism, such as jaw soreness, headaches, and tooth sensitivity. Custom nightguards are more comfortable and effective than over-the-counter options because they are molded to fit your teeth precisely. A well-fitted nightguard also reduces strain on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), helping to alleviate discomfort associated with jaw clenching. Wearing a nightguard nightly protects your teeth from long-term damage and improves overall oral health.
