A mouth guard, also known as an occlusal guard, night guard, or bite splint, is a protective device that fits over teeth to prevent damage.
Custom-made dental mouth guards can prevent sports injuries and protect teeth from damage caused by teeth grinding, clenching, and TMJ disorders.
Dental mouth guards can be made from plastics and silicone. They can have a hard outer shell for protection and a soft inner layer for comfort.
Because custom dental mouth guards provide a custom fit, they are more comfortable and have a higher satisfaction rate than over-the-counter mouth guards.

How A Dental Mouth Guard Works
The Details
Treatment
First, an impression of the user’s teeth is made. From the impression, a stone model precisely replicating the patient’s mouth is created.
Then the selected mouth guard material is heated until soft and pliable. The heated material is then pressed onto the stone model, forcing it to conform to the exact shape of the teeth.
Once cooled, it hardens and is carefully trimmed to fit along the gumline before it’s polished to a smooth and comfortable finish.
Recovery
There is no recovery time involved with
