What Are Nightguards and Athletic Mouthguards?
Nightguards are custom-made appliances designed to protect your teeth from grinding or clenching while you sleep. They help reduce the wear and tear on your teeth and alleviate jaw pain. Athletic mouthguards are designed to protect your teeth from injury during physical activities, absorbing impact and reducing the risk of broken teeth or jaw injury. Both types of mouthguards are made to fit comfortably and securely, ensuring maximum protection without disrupting your daily routine.
FAQs
Find answers to some common questions about nightguards and athletic mouthguards.
Nightguards act as a protective barrier between your upper and lower teeth, preventing them from grinding against each other. This helps alleviate jaw pain, headaches, and wear on your teeth.
While over-the-counter mouthguards may offer some protection, custom-fitted athletic mouthguards provide a better, more comfortable fit and superior protection against injury.
Nightguards may feel a little bulky at first, but most patients quickly adjust to wearing them. Your dentist will ensure a comfortable fit to minimize any discomfort.
With proper care, nightguards and athletic mouthguards can last for several years. However, they may need to be replaced if they become damaged or worn down.
Many dental insurance plans offer partial coverage for nightguards or athletic mouthguards, especially if they are used to prevent teeth grinding or injury. Check with your provider for more information.
