Occlusal guards offer several benefits for individuals suffering from bruxism, including:
Receiving an occlusal guard begins with a comprehensive dental examination by Dr. Nguyen. During this examination, Dr. Nguyen will assess your oral health and determine if an occlusal guard is the proper treatment. If an occlusal guard is recommended, impressions of your teeth will be taken to create a custom-made guard that fits comfortably in your mouth
Once your occlusal guard is ready, Dr. Nguyen will ensure that it fits properly and provides the necessary protection for your teeth. Your occlusal guard should be worn during sleep to prevent teeth grinding and protect your teeth from damage.
