Night Guards

Custom Night Guards For Teeth In Columbus, Ohio

Did you know that your tooth enamel is so strong, it’s considered to be harder than any other material in your entire body? When teeth wear against one another during bruxism (grinding), it can cause teeth to be worn down prematurely or even cause TMJ problems. Merion Village Dentistry’s custom night guards for teeth provide immediate relief for symptoms of bruxism. These “bite splints” are a great way to stop and prevent future damage from grinding.

A Merion Village Dental night guard helps prevent Bruxism from causing:

  • Broken restorations such as fillings or crowns
  • Chipped, fractured teeth
  • Flat, prematurely worn teeth
  • Strain of the TMJ
  • Headaches and migraines

How Do Night Guards Work?

A night guard is a great way to prevent the need for future treatments like replacing existing restorations, or TMJ therapy. Each splint is a custom-fitted, small acrylic piece that is worn when you sleep. The night guard prevents the teeth from touching, which eliminates wear as well as prevents straining of muscles in the face.
