Yes, a properly fitted night guard can help protect your teeth from the pressure and friction caused by nighttime grinding, also known as sleep bruxism. By creating a barrier between your upper and lower teeth, a night guard may reduce the risk of worn enamel, chipped teeth, and other grinding-related damage.
While a night guard doesn't necessarily stop you from grinding your teeth, it can be an important part of protecting your long-term oral health.
Some dental insurance plans may provide coverage for custom night guards, particularly when they're recommended to help manage teeth grinding or related dental problems. However, coverage varies by provider, plan, and the reason for treatment.
At Tend Dental in Brooklyn, our team can help you review your insurance benefits and understand potential out-of-pocket costs before you decide to move forward.
Getting a custom night guard typically involves an initial dental evaluation, impressions or digital scans of your teeth, and the creation of your personalized appliance. Once your night guard is ready, your dentist may check its fit and make adjustments to help ensure it's comfortable.
The exact timeline can vary. Your Tend Dental team in Brooklyn can explain the process and let you know what to expect based on your individual treatment plan.
If your dentist recommends a night guard for sleep bruxism, they'll typically advise wearing it consistently while you sleep to help protect your teeth. Regular use is important because grinding and clenching can occur without you realizing it.
Your Tend dentist in Brooklyn will provide personalized instructions based on your oral health needs, including how often to wear your night guard, how to clean it, and when to have its fit checked.
