Dental Mouthguards and Night Guards in Denver, CO
Night and mouthguards are specialized dental appliances that help protect the teeth from damage. Night guards are designed to help with teeth grinding and clenching during sleep. In contrast, mouthguards are designed to protect teeth during sports or other physical activities. These custom-made guards can provide a comfortable fit, effectively prevent dental injuries, and alleviate the effects of teeth grinding.
Night Guards for Bruxism:
Sometimes, people unconsciously grind or clench their teeth, usually at night while sleeping. We call this condition Bruxism, which can result in various dental issues, such as tooth wear, heightened tooth sensitivity, jaw pain, headaches, and even damage to the teeth or dental restorations.
Night guards are a proven and effective solution for managing Bruxism. These custom-fitted devices, designed to be worn over your teeth while you sleep, act as a protective barrier, absorbing the pressure from grinding and clenching, thereby preventing further damage to teeth and reducing strain on jaw muscles. You can be confident in the security they provide.
Custom Mouthguards for Athletes:
Taking a moment to insert a mouthguard is crucial because it serves as a barrier between your teeth and any potential impact. Whether playing contact sports like football or basketball or even non-contact activities like skateboarding, a mouth guard helps prevent serious injuries such as broken teeth, jaw fractures, and cuts to your lips, tongue, or cheeks. Our custom-fitted mouthguards provide better protection and fit than over-the-counter options, ensuring that the guard stays in place and is comfortable to wear.

What is the difference between over-the-counter mouthguards and custom-fitted ones?
Over-the-counter Mouth Guards are pre-formed and may not fit your teeth perfectly, leading to discomfort and reduced protection. On the other hand, custom-fitted Mouth Guards are explicitly tailored to your dental structure, providing better protection and comfort.
