Nightguard

Teeth grinding could disrupt a good night's sleep, and also result in wearing of your teeth which in turn change he way you smile. when you have severe tooth wear, your teeth are not showing when you speak or smile which will make you look older than you really are. Wearing of teeth also result in root canal therapy due to nerve exposure.

When you grind your teeth, the muscles around your jaw will do extra work and you wake up with a headache and tightness of jaw muscles and sometimes wearing the disc in the joint. There are different ways on how to treat teeth grinding. But the easiest and perhaps the most effective way is to use night guards.

Nightguards are bite pads that are supposed to be worn at night as you sleep. These guards are usually made of high-grade plastic and should fit the teeth or mouth perfectly. This device keeps the upper teeth from grinding with the lower teeth, offering an instant solution to teeth clenching problems.

Teeth grinding can occur in both children and adults. And it is very important that this health condition is not ignored.

Mouthguard

Every year thousands of children are treated for dental injuries, which could have been prevented, or the severity minimised, by wearing a protective mouthguard.

Anyone who participates in a sport that carries a risk of contact to the face should wear a mouthguard. This includes obvious sports such as football, boxing and rugby, and also collision sports where unexpected contact often happens. These include basketball, hockey, water polo, lacrosse, netball, baseball, softball, squash, soccer, BMX bike riding, horse riding, skateboarding, in-line skating, trampolining, cricket (wicket keeping or batting without a helmet), water skiing and snow ski racing.

A mouthguard helps absorb the shock experienced by a blow to the face, which might otherwise result in an injury to the mouth or jaw. A heavy collision can result in chipped or broken teeth, internal damage to a tooth, tooth loss, injuries to the soft tissue of the mouth, and, in severe cases, concussion or a broken jaw. Injuries like these can lead to long and potentially expensive treatment to restore teeth and the mouth back to normal function and appearance.
