About night guard

A night guard (also called occlusal splint or bruxism appliance) is a thin, custom-fitted dental appliance worn over the upper or lower teeth during sleep. It absorbs the force of teeth grinding (bruxism), prevents tooth wear and chipping, reduces jaw muscle soreness, and protects expensive dental work like crowns and veneers. Custom dental night guards last 3–5 years, far longer than over-the-counter versions.

How the procedure works

  1. 1Diagnosis of bruxism via tooth-wear pattern and morning soreness signs
  2. 2Discussion of guard type, soft, hard, or dual-laminate based on grinding intensity
  3. 3Dental impressions or 3D scan of your bite
  4. 4Custom fabrication in dental lab (1 week)
  5. 5Fitting visit, adjustments for comfort and accurate occlusion
  6. 6Wear at night; clean with toothbrush and store dry between uses

Frequently asked questions

How much does night guard cost in Mumbai?
Night Guard in Mumbai typically costs between ₹3,000 and ₹8,000, depending on the clinic, dentist experience, and case complexity.
Where can I get night guard in Mumbai?

How do I know if I grind my teeth?
Common signs: morning jaw soreness, frequent headaches near the temples, flattened or chipped tooth tips, increased tooth sensitivity, partner reports of grinding sounds at night. Your dentist can confirm by examining tooth-wear patterns.
Are store-bought night guards as good as custom dental ones?
No. Over-the-counter "boil-and-bite" guards (₹300–₹800) provide minimal protection and often cause jaw discomfort because they don't fit your bite properly. Custom dental guards (₹2,000–₹8,000) are made from impressions of your teeth, last 5x longer, and don't shift while sleeping.
Soft vs hard night guard, which do I need?
Soft guards (cheaper, more comfortable) work for mild grinding and TMJ-related muscle soreness. Hard acrylic guards last longer, protect against severe grinding, and are required if you have significant tooth wear or porcelain restorations. Dual-laminate (soft inside, hard outside) is the middle ground. Your dentist will recommend based on your wear pattern.
