At Peach Blossom Dental, located in Tucker, GA, we understand the importance of a restful night's sleep and the role that night guards can play in ensuring it. Night guards are custom-fitted dental devices designed to protect your teeth from the effects of grinding and clenching, commonly known as bruxism. This condition can lead to significant dental issues, including tooth wear, fractures, and even jaw pain. By wearing a night guard, you can safeguard your oral health and improve your overall quality of life. Dr. Angela Wright is dedicated to providing personalized solutions that cater to your unique dental needs.

Why Should I Get a Night Guard?
Night guards offer a practical solution for those suffering from bruxism, a condition that affects many individuals unknowingly. By wearing a night guard, you can prevent the detrimental effects of grinding and clenching, such as enamel erosion, tooth sensitivity, and headaches. Furthermore, night guards can alleviate tension in the jaw muscles, promoting relaxation and reducing the risk of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Investing in a night guard not only protects your teeth but also contributes to your overall well-being, ensuring you wake up feeling refreshed and pain-free.

The Benefits Of Night Guards
Protection Against Tooth Damage
Night guards act as a protective barrier between your upper and lower teeth, preventing the wear and tear caused by grinding and clenching. This protection helps maintain the integrity of your teeth, reducing the risk of cracks and fractures that can lead to costly dental procedures.
Relief from Jaw Pain
Wearing a night guard can significantly alleviate jaw pain associated with bruxism. By cushioning the jaw muscles and reducing tension, night guards help to minimize discomfort and prevent the development of TMJ disorders, allowing for a more comfortable and pain-free life.
Improved Sleep Quality
Night guards can enhance your sleep quality by minimizing disturbances caused by grinding noises or discomfort. With a night guard in place, you can enjoy a more restful and uninterrupted sleep, waking up feeling rejuvenated and ready to face the day.
The Night Guards Treatment Process

Consultation and Evaluation
The first step in obtaining a night guard at Peach Blossom Dental involves a thorough consultation and evaluation with Dr. Angela Wright. During this appointment, Dr. Wright will assess your dental health, discuss your symptoms, and determine if a night guard is the appropriate solution for you. This personalized approach ensures that your specific needs are addressed, and the best treatment plan is developed.

Custom Mold Creation
Once the decision to proceed with a night guard is made, the next step involves creating a custom mold of your teeth. This process involves taking precise impressions of your upper and lower teeth for a comfortable fit. The mold is then sent to a specialized dental laboratory, where skilled technicians craft your unique night guard, tailored to provide optimal comfort and protection.
Fitting and Adjustment
After your custom night guard is fabricated, you'll return to Peach Blossom Dental for a fitting appointment. During this visit, Dr. Wright will make sure that your night guard fits comfortably and securely in your mouth. Any necessary adjustments will be made to guarantee the best possible fit, allowing you to wear your night guard with ease and confidence. Dr. Wright will also provide guidance on how to care for and maintain your night guard to ensure its longevity and effectiveness.
