Most cases of Bruxism (Teeth grinding and clenching, also known as Bruxism) can easily be treated by wearing a night guard for teeth while you sleep. Night guards for teeth are also known as dental guards, mouth guards, nocturnal bite plates, or bite splints. They work by putting a barrier between your teeth. When you clench your jaw, the night guard for teeth helps to lighten the tension and give cushion to the muscles in the jaw. This cushioning not only helps to prevent face and jaw pain, but also protects the enamel of your teeth. They look very similar to snoring remedies.
Night guards for teeth can be purchased over-the-counter without a prescription, as well as straight from the dentist or cost effectively from a specialized online retailer. There are a few different ways they can be fitted, and the type that will work best for you depends on your individual needs.
