Custom Nightguards Near You

If you wake up with headaches,worn-down teeth or jaw soreness, you may be grinding your teeth at night, a condition known as bruxism. A custom nightguard can protect your smile, reduce discomfort, and prevent long-term damage. Our Gaithersburg dental team offers high-quality, custom-fitted nightguards designed for comfort, durability, and effective protection.

What Is a Nightguard?

A nightguard in Gaithersburg is a custom-made oral appliance worn while sleeping to cushion your teeth and prevent them from grinding against each other.

Signs You May Need a Nightguard

If you experience any of the following, a nightguard near you may be recommended:

Flattened or worn teeth

Chipped or cracked tooth surfaces

Tight or sore jaw muscles

Headaches, especially in the morning

Clicking or popping in the jaw joint

Tooth sensitivity

Benefits of a Custom Nightguard

Minimises headaches and TMJ symptoms

Lessens jaw discomfort and stress and shields teeth from wear and fractures.

Helps reduce enamel loss and sensitivity

Enhances the quality of sleep

Saves money by avoiding pricey restorative treatments

Over-the-counter nightguards can exacerbate jaw problems and seldom fit properly. Custom nightguards near you provide the highest comfort, protection, and long-term results.

Our Nightguard Process

Assessment and Consultation

During your assessment and consultation, your jaw joint, teeth and signs will be evaluated to determine what type of nightguard is best suited for you.

The use of Digital Scans

Using comfortable 3D digital scans instead of messy head impressions makes it possible to create a custom "fit" that is comfortable for everyone.

Custom Fabrication

Your nightguard is created using high-quality materials that are durable, smooth, and comfortable

Fitting & Adjustments

We make sure your appliance fits perfectly and feels natural, with adjustments as needed.

Caring for Your Nightguard

Rinse nightly with cool water

Brush gently with mild soap (avoid toothpaste)

Store in a ventilated case

Keep away from heat to prevent warping

Please bring it to your dental checkups for evaluation

With proper care, nightguards in Gaithersburg can last several years.

I would come here even if I didn't need to. The staff is amazing sweet and caring but also very knowledgeable and know what they are doing. I never had wait for very long but the office and schedule was always full. The dentist are almost magical and extremely talented. My case was not easy and I had seen dozen or so dentist prior to coming here and was let down by all of them. The dentist here are understanding, considerate and very patient. My issues were difficult to talk about and even more difficult to show and they were very considerate of that at every stage. Amazing place everyone should come here. Thank you to all the staff and dentist your guys are amazing.
