Night Guards - Guard Your Teeth While You Sleep
Night guards from Mint Dental Care are an excellent way to protect your teeth and jaw while you sleep. Many men and women experience dental damage from grinding and clenching their teeth at night. This painful habit can cause potential problems such as tooth damage or even temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). While bruxism cannot be stopped, the damage it causes can be prevented by wearing a night guard. Dental night guards, also known as occlusal guards, place a barrier between your upper and lower teeth to prevent them from clenching or grinding.
