Night Guard Adelaide
Teeth grinding or bruxism is a common sleep-related involuntary movement disorder where people clench or grind their teeth unknowingly during sleep. It can be caused by a lot of factors, including stress, anxiety, sleep apnoea, malocclusion, and teeth misalignment. In mild cases, treatment is not necessary; however, for more serious cases, medication, therapy, and dental treatments may be needed. The most accessible and quickest solution would be using a night guard.
What Is A Night Guard?
A night guard is a custom-made mouthpiece that fits over the upper teeth. That way, if you grind or clench your teeth at night, it will relieve the pressure against the upper and lower teeth. This will free you from stiffness and pain when you wake up and save your teeth from cracks and chips in the long run.

Why Do You Need A Night Guard?
It’s common for people who grind their teeth at night to experience pain in their jaw, earache, or stiffness in the morning. This is because night grinding creates pressure on your teeth, gums, and jaws. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth damage, or worse, tooth loss. So, what most Adelaide dentists recommend as a solution for this problem is wearing a night guard.
