Stop Dental Damage With an Occlusal Guard
Life with a TMJ disorder is unpleasant. You don’t have the comfortable function of your mouth any longer. You may not think of visiting a dentist for this problem. However, we’re experts in dental anatomy. When you see us for treatment, you benefit from our team’s over 30 years of experience. Plus, we have an in-house prosthodontist, a specialist in treating issues with your oral function.
An oral appliance is one of the more common treatments for a TMJ disorder. We can create an occlusal guard that will:
- Protect Your Teeth – Wearing your customized occlusal guard provides a barrier between your teeth. While it won’t prevent your grinding habits, it will act like a cushion. As a result, you won’t have to worry about cracking, chipping, or dislodging teeth.
- Allow Your Jaw to Heal – Wearing the device will alleviate the pressure on your jaw. It allows your jaw to heal since you aren’t bearing down with the same type of force.
While you can find options for night guards at the store, visiting us for treatment means you’ll have a device customized for you. It will fit you better, so it’s comfortable to wear. Plus, it will last longer because it’s made of high-quality materials.
