The night guard is a device that is worn during the day and / or night, which prevents the upper teeth from coming into contact with the lower teeth. It attaches to the chewing surface of the teeth of the lower or upper jaw, and allows biting on the plate rather than on your teeth.

Night guards are often recommended when teeth show signs of wear (bruxism) or when you’re experiencing jaw pain (TMJ).Worn every night and sometimes during the day as well, this device promotes relaxation of the joints and jaw muscles.
