Protecting Your Teeth
Teeth grinding and clenching, also known as bruxism, can affect your dental health and be destructive to your teeth. At Sixth Line Family Dental in Oakville, we recognize that your teeth may need extra protection and offer custom night guards to help preserve your teeth.
It’s essential to treat bruxism when it appears, and if you are experiencing pain from bruxism, please don’t hesitate to contact us and book an appointment!
Custom Mouthguards for Your Teeth
At Sixth Line Family Dental, we offer nightguards that work by putting a barrier between your teeth. A nightguard is a mouthguard that is worn overnight to help combat issues with grinding teeth.
When you clench your jaw, the night guard helps lighten the tension in your mouth and provides a cushion for the muscles in your jaw. There are a few different ways for nightguards to be fitted, and our dental professionals will help you find the right, custom fit for your needs.
Adjusting to Nightguards
At our Oakville dental clinic we believe that your comfort is essential and want to set you up for success with your new nightguard. Choosing the right nightguard for you depends on your needs and the type of nightguard that works for you.
One-Size-Fits-All
These are over-the-counter mouthguards that can be purchased but are not custom-fitted. These mouthguards are the lowest-cost option and are for people with occasional teeth grinding issues.
However, this mouthguard may not yield the same results as custom-fitted nightguards.
Order Online
This type of nightguard is available for online orders and requires you to send an impression of your teeth. With this impression, your fitted mouthpiece will be created and sent back to you for use.
Lab-Made Nightguards
These custom-fitted nightguards are the nightguard of choice at Sixth Line Family Dental. Our team will make an impression of your teeth in-office and create the most accurate fit for your custom nightguard.
It’s always a good idea to visit us in our office if you’re struggling with bruxism to figure out the best possible solution for you.
Custom Solutions for Your Teeth
At Sixth Line Family Dental, we want to help you sleep easier, knowing that your teeth are protected against bruxism.
Book an appointment with us in Oakville today to see if a custom nightguard can help you deal with any issues with teeth clenching and grinding.
