Nightguards

Providing Nightguards

Nightguards can be helpful for those who grind their teeth at night. A nightguard from Charisma Dental is a customized appliance that provides cushion support between rows of teeth. This can prevent them from becoming damaged during grinding episodes during sleep.

The Effects of Grinding

Grinding your teeth subconsciously during sleep can cause them to crack, chip, or break.

Grinding typically happens because of stress but it can be a habit that is hard to break because it occurs during sleep.

It can also cause jaw pain, including TMJ, as well as muscle and neck pain.

Getting a Customized Nightguard

Buying a standard nightguard from a drugstore won’t offer the same protection for your teeth as a customized nightguard from Charisma Dental. A nightguard should be customized to fit your mouth perfectly. That creates the best protection for your teeth and is the most comfortable for sleeping.

Get Fitted

Typically, the crown is installed on a second visit two weeks later after a lab has crafted it from the impressions but that time frame can be reduced now with modern technology and onsite labs.
