FAQ about night guards and mouthguards
What is the difference between a night guard and a sports mouthguard?
While both types of mouthguards offer protection, they serve different purposes. A night guard is designed to protect your teeth from grinding or clenching during sleep, while a sports mouthguard is designed to protect your teeth and gums from injury during sports activities.
Why should I choose a custom mouthguard?
A custom mouthguard is made to fit your mouth perfectly, offering superior comfort and protection compared to DIY options you can buy online.
How should I care for my mouthguard?
Always rinse your mouthguard before and after use, and clean it with a toothbrush and toothpaste. Regularly inspect it for wear and replace it as needed. When not in use, store your mouthguard in a rigid, vented container.
Can a night guard help with TMJ pain?
For many patients, yes. A night guard cushions your teeth against nighttime grinding and clenching, which takes strain off the jaw joint. Learn more about our TMJ treatment.
