Night Guards at Copper Mountain Dental

Night Guards

Grinding or clenching your teeth—known as bruxism—can cause lasting damage to your teeth and lead to discomfort in your jaw, head, and face. Because this often happens during sleep, many people are unaware it’s occurring until the symptoms start to interfere with daily life. At Copper Mountain Dental, we offer custom night guards designed to protect your teeth and reduce the impact of nighttime grinding.

Signs You May Need a Night Guard

If you experience any of the following, a night guard could be a solution:

  • Jaw pain or tightness, especially in the morning
  • Frequent headaches or migraines, often upon waking
  • Worn, flattened, or chipped teeth
  • Tooth sensitivity
  • Cracks in your teeth or damaged enamel
  • Indentations along the sides of your tongue
  • Gum recession
  • Facial or ear pain

How Night Guards Help

A custom night guard acts as a protective barrier, preventing your upper and lower teeth from making direct contact while you sleep. This reduces grinding pressure, helps relieve jaw tension, and prevents further wear or fractures to your teeth. Each guard is crafted to fit comfortably and securely, ensuring you can sleep soundly while protecting your oral health.

Restoring and Protecting Your Smile

If bruxism has already caused damage, Dr. Addyson England will work with you to develop a treatment plan to restore your teeth and prevent future issues. This may include restorative dental treatments to repair worn or cracked teeth, as well as techniques to help manage stress and reduce grinding triggers.
