Benefits of Custom Nightguards

  • Protect Teeth from Grinding (Bruxism): Prevents enamel wear, chips, and cracks
  • Improves Sleep Quality: Reduces nighttime clenching and discomfort
  • Custom Fit for Comfort: Professionally made for a secure, comfortable feel
  • Long-Term Oral Health: Prevents future damage and costly dental repairs

How Nightguards Work

A nightguard is a custom oral appliance worn during sleep that cushions the teeth and reduces the damage caused by clenching or grinding. Unlike store-bought guards, professional nightguards from North Lakewood Dental are molded precisely to your bite, ensuring better protection, fit, and comfort.

We take digital impressions to craft a guard that fits your mouth perfectly. Once your nightguard is ready, we’ll show you how to wear it properly and keep it clean for lasting use. 

Why Choose North Lakewood Dental

  • Custom Solutions: Each nightguard is tailored to your specific bite and grinding patterns
  • Advanced Comfort Materials: We use high-quality, durable materials that feel natural to wear
  • Local Convenience: Our office is easy to reach from both Lakewood Ranch and Bradenton 

Nightguards FAQ

How do I know if I need a nightguard?
Common signs include morning headaches, sore jaw, worn or chipped teeth, and nighttime grinding noticed by a partner.
How long does a custom nightguard last?
With proper care, your nightguard can last several years. We check its fit during your routine visits.
Are over-the-counter nightguards effective?
Store-bought options don’t offer the same level of protection or comfort as a professionally made nightguard.
Will a nightguard affect my sleep?
No—once you’re used to it, many patients sleep better thanks to reduced jaw tension and fewer grinding episodes.

"After years of hiding my smile, I decided to try Invisalign at North Lakewood Dental. The process was so easy, and the results have been amazing.
