What are Mouth Guards?

Protect your teeth from grinding and clenching

Because of today's busy lifestyle, we are finding an increasing number of people who grind or clench their teeth, often due to stress. Wearing a mouthguard at night can reduce the load on your teeth, leading to less chance of your teeth fracturing, which is always a good thing!

A custom-made mouthguard provides superior protection and comfort compared to over-the-counter options. It's specifically designed to fit your teeth perfectly, ensuring maximum effectiveness and comfort whilst you sleep.

Types of Mouthguards

  • Occlusal Splints (from £210): For teeth grinding and clenching (bruxism)
  • Sports Guards (from £90): Protection during athletic activities
  • Flexible Splints (from £90): Lighter protection for mild grinding
