Protecting Your Child’s Smile
What Are Night Guards?
Olney Pediatric Dentist
Night Guards are custom-made dental appliances designed to protect your child’s teeth from the effects of bruxism, a condition where teeth grinding or clenching occurs during sleep. This common issue among children can result in significant wear and tear on their developing teeth. Night guards provide a protective barrier between the upper and lower teeth, helping to prevent damage caused by grinding.
These devices are carefully tailored to fit your child’s mouth using precise impressions or digital scans, ensuring both comfort and effectiveness. In addition to protecting their teeth, night guards can help reduce jaw tension, alleviate headaches, and contribute to better overall oral health. By addressing bruxism early, night guards can play a key role in preserving your child’s smile and improving their quality of sleep.
Benefits of Night Guards
Prevents Dental Damage
Night Guards shield your child’s teeth from the wear and tear associated with grinding, reducing the risk of chipping, cracking, and other types of dental damage.
Reduces Jaw Tension
By cushioning the teeth and jaw, night Guards help relieve muscle strain and discomfort linked to bruxism, making your child’s sleep more comfortable.
Alleviates Headaches
Night Guards can diminish the frequency and intensity of headaches caused by teeth clenching and grinding, leading to improved overall well-being and a more restful night’s sleep.
