If you are experiencing chronic headaches or jaw pain from involuntary night-time teeth clenching, let Dr. Richardson at Highland Village Smile Studio help you with a nightguard. A night guard is a thin, transparent device that is worn over the biting surface of your teeth while you sleep to prevent contact between the upper and lower teeth.

How Does a Night Guard Get Fitted?

  • Impressions are taken of your upper and lower teeth to confirm an accurate fit
  • Using your impressions as a mold, the night guard is crafted out of strong, durable plastic
  • When the guard is finished, it is properly fitted to your mouth
  • Simply wear the guard while you sleep every night
