Mouthguards & Nightguards

Mouthguards and Nightguards

Mouthguards are devices that help to protect your teeth when you play sports or do activities like riding a bike, etc. It is designed to protect your teeth, tongue, gums, and teeth from trauma caused by sports injuries.


Nightguards are quite similar to mouthguards. They are specifically designed to protect you from bruxism or teeth grinding. Stress and anxiety are the main causes of bruxism, and it occurs primarily when you are asleep, so you will not have control over the issue. It can lead to TMD, which is very painful and can interfere with your daily oral activities. Nightguards provide that much-needed cushion when you unconsciously clench your teeth, so you do not feel the effects. Both mouthguards and nightguards can be custom-made by your dentist in Miami, FL.
