Protect Your Smile with Custom Nightguards
At Winchester Dental Group, we prioritize your oral health and comfort. Our custom-made nightguards are designed to protect your teeth from the damaging effects of grinding and clenching (bruxism) while you sleep. Experience a peaceful night’s rest and safeguard your smile with our expertly crafted nightguards.
Personalized Fit
Our nightguards are custom-made to fit your unique dental structure. Using precise impressions of your teeth, we create a nightguard that offers optimal comfort and effectiveness. The personalized fit ensures that the nightguard stays in place throughout the night, providing you with the best possible protection against grinding and clenching.
Prevent Damage and Relieve Pain
Bruxism can lead to a variety of dental problems, including tooth wear, fractures, and jaw pain. Wearing a nightguard can help prevent these issues by absorbing the pressure and reducing the impact of grinding and clenching. This can also alleviate related symptoms such as headaches and jaw discomfort, allowing you to wake up feeling refreshed and pain-free.
Long-Lasting Protection
Our nightguards are made from high-quality materials designed to withstand the forces of grinding and clenching. They are durable and long-lasting, providing you with reliable protection night after night. With proper care and maintenance, your custom nightguard can serve as an effective solution for preserving your dental health over the long term.

Nightguards FAQs
A nightguard is a dental appliance worn over the teeth during sleep to protect them from the effects of grinding and clenching (bruxism). It acts as a barrier, absorbing the pressure and preventing damage to your teeth and jaw.
If you experience symptoms such as tooth wear, fractures, jaw pain, headaches, or if you notice signs of grinding or clenching, you may benefit from a nightguard. A consultation with your dentist can help determine if a nightguard is the right solution for you.
A custom nightguard is made using precise impressions of your teeth. These impressions are sent to a dental laboratory, where the nightguard is crafted to fit your unique dental structure. This ensures a comfortable and effective fit that stays in place throughout the night.
The lifespan of a custom nightguard depends on factors such as the severity of grinding and clenching and how well it is cared for. With proper maintenance, a high-quality nightguard can last several years. Regular dental check-ups can help monitor its condition and ensure it continues to provide effective protection.
To care for your nightguard, rinse it with cool water after each use and clean it with a toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste. Store it in a protective case when not in use, and avoid exposing it to high temperatures. Bring your nightguard to your dental appointments for professional cleaning and inspection.
While nightguards are primarily designed to protect against bruxism, some types of nightguards can also help reduce snoring and mild cases of sleep apnea by repositioning the jaw to keep the airway open. However, for severe sleep apnea, a consultation with a sleep specialist is recommended to explore other treatment options.
