Nightguard for Bruxism – Teeth Grinding

Bruxism, also known as teeth grinding, is a common oral habit. Unfortunately, it often occurs during the night and can produce a number of disruptive symptoms during the day. People who grind or clench their teeth while they sleep may wake up with sore teeth, jaw pain or tension headache. The persistent pressure placed on your teeth during bruxism can also wear down your teeth prematurely or cause dental restorations to become loose. In order to restore your comfort and protect your smile, your Napa Valley Dentist at Alora Dentistry & Implant Center offers top-quality nightguards for bruxism as a dental treatment.

Signs You May Be Grinding Your Teeth While You Sleep

Teeth grinding is commonly done subconsciously during times of stress. However, if it is performed at night, it may be hard to know you are engaging in such a harmful oral habit. Therefore, if you notice the following signs of bruxism, please call one of our skilled Napa Valley dentists:

  • Headaches
  • Loss of tooth structure
  • Gum recession
  • Loose teeth
  • Shortening of teeth
  • Tooth sensitivity
  • Cracked and broken teeth
  • TMJ (or jaw joint) discomfort

At Alora Dentistry & Implant Center, we can fit you with a custom nightguard to help you avoid these disruptive side effects from teeth grinding. Rest assured that we use advanced digital imaging to capture precise measurements for your oral appliance, and it will be custom crafted from comfortable yet highly durable materials. When a dental nightguard is used, we can prevent damage from teeth grinding as well as the resulting pressures on the jaw joint and facial muscles.

Are you suffering from the symptoms of bruxism? Have you been told that you grind your teeth while you sleep? Contact Alora Dentistry & Implant Center today to schedule your appointment for a dental nightguard. We treat patients of all ages in a warm, relaxing atmosphere.
