Merry Christmas
Dr. Nancy Bui recommends a nighttime dental guard that provides a cushion of space between your teeth that will protect them from the destructive forces generated by overactive chewing muscles. This aggressive muscle activity, called teeth grinding and clenching can cause excessive tooth wear, chipping, fractures, loosening of the teeth or even TMJ disorder. Spacing your teeth apart also decompresses the jaw joints (TMJ). This decompression is an unloading of the joints, much like crutches allow you to take the weight off an injured knee or hip. The night guard is designed to re-establish your "natural" freeway space, which will protect your teeth from clenching and grinding day or night.We have many patients who have stopped this neuromuscular disorder while wearing a nighttime dental guard.
We are offering a special price for our patients that need an occlusal guard and couldn't afford one; we are offering a discount price of 50% off now thru the end of the year.
