Sports Injuries :
It is highly important that children or adults involved in sports wear a mouthguard . A high-quality, custom-made mouthguard is a small protective device that fits over your teeth and absorbs the force of an impact, helping to protect the mouth from damage. It is fabricated from a model of your teeth for a perfect fit. A mouthguard could save you the inconvenience and potentially much higher cost of restoring or replacing teeth.
Bruxism :
Bruxism is clenching or grinding your teeth, often without being aware that your are doing it. Some people grind their teeth only during sleep, while others grind their teeth during the daytime as well, most often during situations that make them feel tense or anxious.People with severe bruxism can fracture dental fillings or cause other types of tooth damage. In both children and adults, tooth damage related to bruxism can be prevented by wearing a protective Nightguard , similar to sports Mouthguard. It is custom-made to fit your teeth and protects them from grinding against the opposing teeth.
