Symptoms Where You May Need a Guard

You may need a night or day guard if you’ve noticed worn, chipped, or flattened teeth, frequent jaw pain or tension, or morning headaches. Other signs include tooth sensitivity, fractured dental work, neck or shoulder tightness, or reports of grinding noises while you sleep. These symptoms often indicate clenching or bruxism, which can be effectively managed with a custom guard.

Day vs Night Guards

Night guards are worn during sleep to protect the teeth from nighttime grinding and clenching, helping reduce jaw pain, morning headaches, enamel wear, and stress on the TMJ making them ideal for heavy grinders, TMJ patients, or those with veneers and restorations. Day guards, on the other hand, are thin and discreet appliances designed for daytime clenching or stress-related grinding, helping prevent jaw fatigue and tension headaches while allowing comfortable speaking and daily activity. Together, both options offer targeted protection depending on when grinding occurs and the patient’s lifestyle needs.
