Night Guards

Are you experiencing teeth grinding or jaw clenching?

A night guard might be the solution for you. Night guards are effective in addressing these issues and
promoting better dental health.

Don’t worry – we’ve got you covered! Reach out to us today to learn about the advantages and potential drawbacks of night guards, empowering you to make an informed decision.

At Haugh Dental Care, we take a comprehensive approach to night guards. If you’re considering a nightguard, the first step is to visit us for an examination. During this process, we’ll take bite impressions or a 3D scan of your teeth, serving as a guide for fabricating your customized night guard.

Subsequently, your personalized guard undergoes a specialized machine, using heat and pressure to shape it according to our specifications. After cooling, it’s immersed in a special liquid that hardens upon exposure to air. The final touch involves placing the guard back into specialized equipment for additional polishing and finishing. Once you leave our office with your new mouth guard, you can start using it immediately!

What exactly are mouth guards?

Custom-fit night guards are designed to alleviate jaw pain and prevent nighttime teeth grinding. These guards are crafted from a firm yet flexible material tailored to your dental needs, typically composed of durable acrylic plastic or resilient soft silicone.

Who can benefit from custom night guards?

Many individuals, such as those who:

  • Clench or grind their teeth at night
  • Experience bite issues
  • Engage in contact sports regularly
  • Deal with TMJ issues
