Shielding Your Smile From Nighttime Grinding

Shielding Your Smile from Nighttime Grinding

At Crossroads Dental by Fuller Smiles, we understand how bruxism – that’s the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth during sleep – can really affect your dental health. To help out, we offer custom-fitted night guards. These guards act as a protective barrier, keeping your teeth safe and easing the strain on your jaw. If you’re looking for night guards in Irvine, our team provides tailored solutions for optimal comfort and protection.

Custom-Made for Your Comfort

Our night guards are made just for you, fitting the exact shape of your teeth. This means they’re super comfortable, letting you breathe and speak naturally while you sleep. They’re a step up from what you’d find over-the-counter, tailored specifically for your mouth to give you the best protection without any hassle. Proper gum care is also essential to maintaining a healthy smile, ensuring overall oral wellness alongside your night guard.

More Than Just Overnight Protection

Using a night guard from Crossroads Dental can really cut down on the not-so-great effects of bruxism, like headaches, jaw pain, and tooth damage. They cushion your teeth while you sleep, preventing the kind of wear that can lead to tooth sensitivity or even more serious dental issues. Plus, for some folks, they can even help keep snoring at bay by stabilizing the jaw position. If you’re in need of night guards in Irvine, our custom-fit solutions are designed to provide maximum comfort and protection for your smile.

"My wife setup an appointment with Ticia for me to come in and have an exam... She was supportive and explained how their process works... Dr. Kopoor came in and she was very nice and asked me what I wanted for my dental health... Shortly after Ticia came back in and discussed what the process would be... This has to be the best experience I have had from a dental office in a very long time."

"I'm a 76 years old man... I visited about 10 Dental offices trying to find one that can correct my situation... Dr. Joshi patiently explained to me all options and key procedures of some options... I had a 4 hours procedure in a super modern surgical center that gave me a new set of teeth for my lower jaw... Unbelievably, there was no pain, minimum swelling and no blood dripping."
