Custom-made retainers made of clear plastic that fit over your top or bottom teeth. This appliance protects your teeth while you sleep. Many of us clench and grind our teeth while we sleep.

Bruxism (or teeth grinding) is traumatic to our teeth causing teeth to loosen, wear and fracture. In severe cases, a patient can experience muscle fatigue with discomfort and headaches. Many cases of jaw joint disorders or TMD (TemporoMandibular Disorder) have relationship with bruxism and your bite. We are trained to recognize evidence of this common problem. Early recognition of bruxism and prevention is critical to preserve the function and aesthetics of your teeth and jaw joint.
