Night Guard (soft)

Night Guard Soft

Soft Night Guard: Do you wake up with a sore jaw? Does your sleeping partner complain that you grind your teeth at night? If yes, we might have a solution for you. Teeth grinding or clenching, also known as bruxism, can be treated in various ways. A night guard is one of the most common solutions. This particular condition is also often only detected when seeking treatment for symptoms like headaches, facial or jaw pain, or worn-down teeth.

If you suspect that you’re grinding your teeth at night, the right thing to do is visit the dentist for a full evaluation. In the meantime, or if your grinding is a problem associated with periods of high stress or poor sleep, dentists recommend over-the-counter mouth guards as an alternative solution.

Soft night guards and hard night guards work best depending on the severity of your teeth grinding. The soft ones are used for mild to moderate teeth grinding but cannot be used for severe grinding. They protect your teeth and ease jaw muscle pain.

Soft Night Guard for Teeth

A soft night guard for teeth is also ideal for those who suffer from teeth clenching rather than grinding since the soft material acts as a cushion against the clenching forces. On the other hand, hard teeth night guards work for those with severe and extreme cases of teeth grinding. Made from acrylic and extremely rigid, the hard night guards are more durable but slightly more expensive. Depending on your specific needs and the type of bruxism you have, you should choose the right night guard for you.

Other options that help prevent the effects of bruxism are dental guards, nocturnal bite plates, or bite splints.
