We are dedicated to ensuring the health and well-being of your child’s smile, which includes providing custom-made nightguards to protect against the harmful effects of teeth grinding and clenching during sleep. Call us to request an appointment with our Santa Monica orthodontic team.
Nightguards, also known as occlusal splints or dental splints, are essential for children who grind or clench their teeth during sleep. These habits, known as bruxism, can lead to various dental issues if left untreated. Our nightguards:
- Provide a protective barrier between the upper and lower teeth to prevent wear and damage.
- Help alleviate symptoms like jaw pain, headaches, and tooth sensitivity associated with bruxism.
- Promote a more restful night’s sleep for your child by reducing discomfort and tension.
Contact us today to schedule a consultation and take the first step in safeguarding your child’s smile with a custom nightguard from Westside Pediatric Dental and Orthodontic Group. We are here to provide the expertise, support, and personalized care your child deserves for a lifetime of healthy and happy smiles.
