Frequently Asked Questions
Night Guards FAQs
How do I know if I need a night guard?
Signs you might grind your teeth include waking with jaw pain or headaches, tooth sensitivity, worn or flattened teeth, chipped or cracked teeth, tight jaw muscles, and disturbed sleep. Your dentist can identify grinding damage during your exam. If your partner hears grinding sounds while you sleep, that’s another clear indicator.
What's the difference between a custom night guard and a store-bought one?
Custom night guards are made specifically for your teeth using impressions taken in our office, ensuring perfect fit, comfort, and protection. Store-bought guards use a one-size-fits-most approach that rarely fits well, can be uncomfortable, and may not provide adequate protection. The superior fit of custom guards means you’ll actually wear yours consistently.
How long does it take to get my custom night guard?
After taking impressions of your teeth, we send them to a dental lab that fabricates your custom guard. This typically takes two to three weeks. You’ll return for a fitting appointment where we ensure your guard fits perfectly, make any necessary adjustments, and provide care instructions.
Will wearing a night guard feel strange or uncomfortable?
There’s an adjustment period of a few nights as you get used to wearing something in your mouth while sleeping. However, custom guards are designed for comfort and most patients adapt quickly. The slim profile and precise fit make custom guards far more comfortable than store-bought alternatives.
How do I care for and clean my night guard?
Rinse your guard with cool water after each use and brush it gently with a soft toothbrush and mild soap. Store it in its protective case when not in use to prevent damage or contamination. Avoid hot water, which can warp the material. Bring your guard to dental appointments so we can check for wear.
How long will my night guard last?
Durability varies based on grinding severity, but most custom night guards last three to five years with proper care. Heavy grinders may need replacement sooner. Regular dental checkups allow us to monitor your guard for wear. If it becomes thin, cracked, or no longer fits properly, we’ll recommend replacement.
Can a night guard help with TMJ pain?
Yes, night guards often relieve TMJ pain by preventing teeth grinding and clenching that stress the jaw joint. The guard cushions your teeth and reduces muscle tension. Many patients experience significant relief from jaw pain, headaches, and TMJ discomfort after consistently wearing their custom guard at night.
Should I wear my night guard every night?
Yes, consistent nightly use provides the best protection for your teeth and jaw. Grinding and clenching typically occur during sleep when you can’t consciously control these behaviors. Regular use prevents cumulative damage, protects dental work like crowns and fillings, and maintains your results long-term.
What if I have dental work like crowns or implants?
Night guards are especially important for protecting dental work, which can be damaged or dislodged by grinding forces. We’ll design your custom guard to accommodate your crowns, implants, or other restorations, providing comprehensive protection for both natural teeth and dental work throughout your mouth.
Can children use night guards?
Yes, children who grind their teeth can benefit from night guards. However, since children’s mouths are still growing and changing, they may need new guards more frequently than adults as their teeth develop. We’ll assess whether your child would benefit from a guard and recommend the most appropriate type for their age and situation.
