Night Guards In East York & Riverdale, ON

At Luma Dental, we understand the impact of grinding teeth on oral health and overall well-being. Our Nightguards are a specialized service designed to protect your teeth and provide relief from the effects of bruxism. Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is a prevalent condition frequently experienced while asleep, leading to enamel erosion, tooth sensitivity, jaw pain, and headaches. Our expert and highly skilled team is dedicated to providing effective solutions that enhance oral health and promote better sleep quality.

Types of Night Guards

We offer a range of high-quality night guards to suit your specific needs:

Custom-fit Night Guards:

Our dental clinic takes a personalized approach by offering custom-fit night guards. Our skilled dentists will make the process simple and painless as they take impressions of your teeth during the visit to create a night guard that completely fits your unique dental structure. This custom fit ensures optimal comfort and protection, allowing you to sleep calmly without worrying about teeth grinding.

Boil-and-Bite Night Guards:

For a more convenient and cost-effective option, we provide boil-and-bite night guards. A mouth guard for sleeping is made from a thermoplastic material that softens when boiled. After softening, you can bite down on the guard, which allows it to conform to the shape of your teeth for a semi-custom fit.

Over-the-Counter Night Guards:

Our dental clinic offers over-the-counter night guards if you require immediate relief or a temporary solution. While not as personalized as custom-fit options, these night guards still provide essential protection against teeth grinding and jaw clenching.

Benefits of Using Night Guards

Our Toronto Nightguards offer a multitude of benefits:

Dental Protection:

Night guards serve as a protective barrier, cushioning the upper and lower teeth, preventing the enamel from wearing down due to grinding and clenching. By safeguarding your dental structure, you can avoid potential dental issues such as tooth fractures and sensitivity caused by bruxism.

Improved Sleep Quality:

Bruxism can disrupt your sleep, leading to fatigue and irritability. Night guards help relax the jaw muscles, reducing tension and minimizing the impact of teeth grinding on your sleep quality. With good sleep, you can wake up feeling refreshed and revitalized.

Headache and Jaw Pain Relief:

Many individuals with bruxism experience headaches, jaw pain, and facial discomfort. Night guards distribute the pressure evenly, alleviating strain on the jaw muscles and providing relief from these uncomfortable symptoms.

Proper Care and Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance are necessary to safeguard the durability and effectiveness of your night guard in the long run:

1. Cleanliness: After each use, rinse your night guard with cold water to remove any debris. Regularly brush it with a soft toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste to keep it clean and bacteria-free.
2. Storage: Store your night guard in a dedicated container to protect it from damage and potential contamination. To prevent material deformation, refrain from exposing it to direct sunlight or hot water, as excessive heat can cause damage.
3. Regular Check-ups: Schedule routine check-ups at our dental clinic to ensure your night guard is still in good condition and properly fitted. Over time, adjustments or replacements may be necessary for optimal protection.
