Frequently Asked Questions About Night Guards, Sports Mouth Guards, & Retainers

How do I know if I need a night guard?
Common signs include morning jaw pain, headaches, worn or chipped teeth, and partners hearing grinding. A quick exam confirms if a guard will help.
Are custom sports mouth guards really better than boil-and-bite?
Yes. Custom guards stay in place, improve breathing and speaking, and offer superior impact absorption compared to over-the-counter versions.
How long do guards and retainers last?
Night guards often last 2–5 years; sports guards may need annual replacement due to wear; retainers can last 1–5+ years with proper care.
How should I clean my appliance?
Rinse after use and brush gently with mild soap and cool water. Avoid hot water and abrasive cleaners. Store dry in a ventilated case.
What if I lose or crack my retainer?
Contact us right away. With digital scans on file, we can usually remake your retainer quickly without new impressions.
Can I wear a retainer during the day?
Most patients wear retainers at night, but some cases benefit from daytime wear. We’ll tailor instructions to your smile.
Will insurance help pay for a night guard or mouth guard?
Many plans offer partial coverage. Our team will review your benefits and provide clear estimates before treatment.
Are these appliances comfortable?
Yes. Custom designs are slim and fitted to your bite, making them easier to wear consistently.
Do you make guards for kids and teens?
Absolutely. We fabricate youth sports guards and retainers, with guidance as teeth and jaws grow.
