Night Guard Splint in Dubai

These are also known as occlusal splints and are used for dental purposes to prevent the teeth from wearing out due to the constant clenching and grinding that some people suffer from when they fall asleep. This condition is called bruxism and is quite common. The guards are made up of flexible acrylic or other biocompatible materials such as resin. This makes them durable and easy to stand a high amount of pressure. Their main property is to act as a barrier and prevent them from chipping, loosening, and cracking. In the end, their presence also improves sleep quality by eliminating any external factors that disrupt it and promote a more comfortable life.

Night guards are one of the main tools used in Teeth Grinding Treatment, helping protect teeth from damage caused by bruxism while you sleep.
