Night Guards (Occlusal Splints)

Protect Your Teeth from Bruxism

Grinding or clenching your teeth—known as bruxism—is a common habit that often goes unnoticed, especially during sleep.

Although it may seem harmless, bruxism can cause serious and lasting effects, including chronic head and neck pain, jaw clicking or locking, worn teeth, and even cracked or chipped teeth.

Why You Need a Night Guard?

At Panania Dental Surgery, we understand that bruxism isn’t just a cosmetic concern—it can impact your oral health and overall well-being.

While identifying the underlying cause of bruxism is important, a custom-made night guard is often the first line of defence.

A night guard provides a protective barrier that prevents your teeth from grinding against each other, helping reduce damage and relieve symptoms.

How a Custom-Fit Night Guard Helps:
  • Protects your teeth: Prevents wear, flattening, and potential damage caused by grinding.
  • Reduces jaw strain: Alleviates jaw discomfort from constant clenching.
  • Prevents costly treatments: Helps avoid expensive dental procedures like crowns or restorative work.

Whether it’s basketball, football, or soccer, a custom mouthguard keeps your teeth safe so you can focus on your game.

Benefits:

Unlike store-bought alternatives, our custom-made night guards are tailored to fit your mouth perfectly, offering:

  • Superior comfort: Designed for your teeth and gums, ensuring a secure fit without discomfort.
  • Durability: Lab-made for long-lasting, effective protection.
  • Seamless integration: Comfortable to wear during sleep without disrupting your rest.
