Night Guards & Sleep Apnea Devices

Minimize Snoring and Sleep Better

We customize snore and night guards to fit the specific bite and alignment of each patient.

Excessive jaw clenching and bruxism can accelerate tooth, jaw and joint (TMJ) deterioration. Meanwhile, snoring can impact the quality of your own sleep and that of those around you.  To help our patients most comfortably avoid these issues, we customize snore and night guards to fit their bite and alignment.  A standard night guard acts as a cushion between the top and bottom dental arches to prevent excessive tooth wear and joint discomfort.  Snore guards look similar, but instead of acting as a cushion between the top and bottom teeth, they keep the lower jaw forward, thus preventing pressure on the larynx.
