Night Guards: The Best Medicine is Prevention

Stop night time dental damage and protect your patients’ investment in quality dental care – with high quality custom night guards from DeLux. The earlier you stop the damage, the better the long term prognosis.


Potentially hundreds of patients in your practice would benefit by wearing a night guard – an outstanding way to combat the bothersome and potentially damaging habits of bruxism and clenching. Your proactive advice can be instrumental in helping reduce the resulting issues such as increasingly worn teeth, headaches, jaw pain and disturbed sleep.

Why Consider Prescribing Night Guards?

A professionally custom-made night guard is composed of soft material and slides over one row of your patient’s teeth. The patient can then sleep more soundly knowing that even if they do grind or clench their teeth, the upper and lower teeth will no longer make contact.

Since night guards aren’t always covered by dental insurance, patients might be inclined to source a generic, over-the-counter guard. You don’t want to recommend this – the common experience is that a store-bought night guard is uncomfortable, doesn’t fit well and thus makes it difficult to enjoy restful sleep. Moreover, the discomfort often results in discontinuation of use, or spotty use, reducing the protection and benefits.
