Dental guards in Ridgehaven.

Custom nightguards and sports mouthguards to help protect teeth from grinding or impact.

You grind your teeth, wake with jaw tension, or need protection for sport.

What happens first

A guard appointment can check signs of grinding, tooth wear, jaw symptoms, or sport protection needs before a custom guard is planned.

What to know before choosing

Protection made for your mouth

Custom guards are made to fit your teeth more closely than off-the-shelf options. They may help reduce preventable tooth wear or sports-related dental injuries.

When to ask about a guard

Jaw discomfort, headaches, chipped teeth, or visible wear can be reasons to ask about grinding. Parents and athletes can also ask about sports mouthguards.

Before you book

Book a guard fitting if the concern is grinding or sport protection.

Call first if you also have pain, broken teeth, or headaches you want assessed.

Ask about turnaround time before relying on a guard for an upcoming sports date.

Call the practice if symptoms feel urgent, if more than one service seems relevant, or if you would prefer guidance before booking.

Patient questions

Is a nightguard the same as a sports mouthguard?

No. Nightguards and sports mouthguards are designed for different types of force and should be discussed separately.
