What Is a Nightguard?

Teeth grinding, or bruxism, is a condition where a person clenches or grinds their teeth—often during sleep. Over time, this habit can contribute to tooth wear, jaw discomfort, or tension-related headaches. Many individuals are unaware they grind their teeth until a Browns Plains dentist identifies signs during an oral examination. Early assessment can help monitor changes and guide appropriate management to support oral health.

A dental Nightguard in Browns Plains, sometimes called a bruxism, is a custom-made oral appliance worn during sleep. While it does not stop grinding, it provides a protective barrier between the upper and lower teeth to help reduce wear.

At Grand Plaza Dentist in Browns Plains, our custom-made nightguards are:

Individually fitted to your bite for comfort and stability

Made using durable dental materials

Designed to allow natural breathing during sleep

Easy to clean and maintain with guidance from your dentist
