The problem of teeth grinding and clenching during sleep is quite common today. When this occurs, the muscles become overworked and the patient experiences a sore jaw and at times headaches. Here at the clinic our Clinical Dental Technician will take impressions of the upper and lower jaw to confirm an accurate fit for your nightguard which is then manufactured in our in-house dental laboratory and fitted over the upper teeth to prevent them from grinding against the lower teeth.
This custom made device is manufactured using our state of the art Erkodent Thermoforming system which uses both vacum and pressure to fabricate this custom fit device.
