Custom Nightguards
Monroe Township, NJ
Bruxism & TMJ Relief
What are Custom Nightguards?
Custom nightguards are specially designed dental appliances created to protect your teeth from the damaging effects of teeth grinding and clenching, a condition known as bruxism. Many people grind their teeth unconsciously during sleep, which can lead to worn-down enamel, chipped or cracked teeth, jaw pain, and morning headaches.
At Monroe Dental and Implants, our custom nightguards are tailored to fit your teeth comfortably, creating a cushioned barrier that absorbs pressure and prevents tooth-to-tooth contact. Unlike over-the-counter guards, custom-made nightguards offer superior comfort and durability, ensuring you can sleep peacefully while safeguarding your smile.
