Custom Nightguards in Matthews, NC

Do you wake up with jaw soreness, headaches, or sensitive teeth? You may be grinding or clenching your teeth at night — a condition known as bruxism. At Orchard Lake Dentistry, we provide custom nightguards in Matthews, NC to protect your smile and relieve discomfort.

What is Bruxism?

Bruxism is the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth, often during sleep. Over time, it can cause:

  • Worn or flattened teeth
  • Cracked or chipped enamel
  • Jaw pain or TMJ discomfort
  • Morning headaches
  • Increased tooth sensitivity

Many patients don’t realize they grind their teeth until symptoms begin to appear.

How Custom Nightguards Help

A professionally made nightguard acts as a protective barrier between your upper and lower teeth. It helps:

  • Prevent Enamel Wear
  • Reduce Jaw Strain
  • Protect Crowns, Veneers, and Other Restorations
  • Minimize Headaches and Facial Tension

Unlike store-bought options, custom nightguards are designed specifically for your bite, making them more comfortable, secure, and durable.

The Process for Getting a Nightguard

Getting a nightguard is simple and comfortable:

  1. We take precise digital impressions of your teeth.
  2. Your custom guard is fabricated for an exact fit.
  3. You return for a fitting to ensure comfort and effectiveness.

Our team will also provide care instructions to keep your nightguard clean and long-lasting.

Protect Your Smile While You Sleep

Untreated teeth grinding can lead to significant dental damage over time. A custom nightguard is a small investment that can prevent costly restorative procedures in the future.
