Clenching and grinding your teeth wears away at your enamel and contributes to problems with your temporomandibular joints (TMJ). This makes you more likely to develop tooth decay and gum infections. It also makes you more likely to have problems with your jaw. Those pains can extend to your face, neck, upper back, and shoulders.
To alleviate your problem, we can create a custom bite guard for you to wear while you sleep. This can help in a few ways:
Our night guards are just one oral appliance we can design for you. We can make custom sports mouthguards to reduce your risk of dental injuries. Patients who have sleep apnea can improve the quality of their sleep with an oral appliance, too.

Dr. Fugate and his staff do a great job. I had a crown made and put in all in one visit. No pain, no temporary crown, all done in 2 hours. I get stressed over going to the dentist but this experience was as good as it can be.

The key to relieving TMJ pain is easing pressure on your jaw. To do that, we can make you an appliance that gently moves your jaw into a position that keeps pressure off your jaw. The appliance also keeps you from clenching your jaw and grinding your teeth, two behaviors that trigger TMJ pain.
It’s possible. Inflammation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) can lead to pain in the surrounding muscles of the head and neck, which can be misinterpreted as migraines. By wearing a mouthguard, you can alleviate the pain caused by TMJ inflammation and potentially experience relief from headaches.
Signs of a TMJ disorder may include jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds when chewing, difficulty opening the mouth completely, facial pain, headaches, and ear pain or ringing. Some people may also experience neck and shoulder pain or toothaches unrelated to dental problems. Also, your jaw may feel locked or stuck. If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to visit our practice for help.
