Do you frequently wake up with a sore jaw and a dull headache? You might not even be aware that you are clenching or grinding your teeth while you sleep. Your brain’s instructions to clench your jaw cannot be stopped. However, utilizing dental night guards can help to lessen the effects of bruxism.

A dental night guard helps stop sufferers from grinding their teeth. They are oral dental appliances that you wear while you sleep that serves as a barrier between your teeth. The night guard will then absorb the strain and provide your jaw muscles with a cushion so that when you clench your jaw, your teeth will actually sink into it.

Even though you can buy a night guard over the counter at your neighborhood drug store, the best night guards will be made by a dental professional such as Rolling Oaks Dental. Our knowledgeable and compassionate staff is prepared to assist you to help relieve your uncomfortable symptoms.
