Since it is associated with a constant grinding and clenching of teeth, leaving it unattended can risk the person\u2019s overall oral health. Our dentist at The Holistic Dental Center recommends nightguards for patients suffering from bruxism. The protective device looks like a sports mouthguard that cushions the teeth against the possible wear and tear. Here in our dental office, we provide a nightguard made from metal-free materials to ensure the safety of our patients.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-313 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/theholisticdentalcenter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Mouthguards.jpg\" alt=\"mouthguards\" width=\"500\" height=\"565\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benefits Of Wearing A Nightguards<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Teeth grinding affects the person tremendously. People suffering from bruxism wake up with a severe headache, sore jaw or facial muscles, teeth sensitivity \u2013 and worst \u2013 damaged teeth. Many factors contribute to this type of problem, but no known treatment can entirely stop the grinding and clenching habit of a person. There is, however, a device that helps combat its adverse effects: Nightguards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A nightguard lessens the likelihood of the upper and lower teeth to come in contact, thereby preventing the risks of chipping, intense wearing, and damaged fillings. This wonder device improves the quality of sleep of the person by giving their jaw muscles a well-deserved rest. Nevertheless, these benefits are solely limited to custom-made nightguards. Teeth protectors that are purchased over the counter are less effective, unsafe, and can only harm than good.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cleaning Tips For Nightguards<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping nightguards clean is essential to maximize their function and lifespan. Also, a well-sanitized teeth protector prohibits the rise of any oral complications. Here are great cleaning ideas that you might find useful:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove bacteria, debris, and excess saliva in the oral device by rinsing it in cool water after waking up in the morning.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brush it after using a toothbrush alone. Remember, abrasive cleansers can compromise the appearance and texture of the teeth protector.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dry the nightguard first before storing to avoid bacterial growth.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can try soaking the device once or twice a week in a solution for extra cleaning. A denture cleaner or a mouthwash can work magic in washing off unwanted particles in the nightguard.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For more information about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theholisticdentalcenter.com\/nightguards-metal-free-prevent-tooth-wear.php\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nightguards in Spokane, WA<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, be sure to contact The Holistic Dental Center<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> t<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">oday.
