Night Guards & Mouth Guards
In Leesburg, FL
What are Night Guards & Mouth Guards?
- Night guards and mouthguards are protective dental devices tailored to fit over your teeth. Night guards prevent damage from teeth grinding (bruxism) during sleep, while mouthguards shield the teeth during sports activities, absorbing impact and preventing injury.
How Do Night Guards & Mouth Guards Work?
- Both devices are crafted from durable materials and are molded to the contours of your teeth. Night guards work by cushioning your teeth and keeping them from grinding against each other, reducing stress on your jaw. Mouthguards provide a protective barrier against physical impacts, safeguarding your teeth and gums during athletic activities.
