Do you wake up with headaches, jaw pain, or sensitive teeth? You’re not alone. Teeth grinding and clenching(bruxism) affect millions of adults — often without them even realizing it. At Brookline Progressive Dental Team, we recommend custom nightguards as one of the smartest preventive treatments for busy professionals and families.

Why Nightguards Are So Important?

Grinding your teeth at night can lead to:

  • Worn, chipped, or cracked teeth
  • Jaw pain and TMJ disorders
  • Chronic headaches and ear pain
  • Damage to expensive dental work (crowns, veneers, implants)

A store-bought nightguard may offer minimal protection, but a custom nightguard from our office is specifically designed from your teeth impressions for superior comfort and protection.

Benefits of our custom nightguards:

  • Significantly more comfortable than over-the-counter options
  • Better at reducing muscle tension and protecting teeth
  • Can help relieve TMJ symptoms and prevent costly repairs
  • Available in different thicknesses and styles (including sleek, low-profile designs

Who Should Get a Nightguard?

  • Anyone who grinds or clenches their teeth
  • Patients with existing dental work (implants, crowns, veneers)
  • People experiencing jaw pain or frequent headaches
  • Athletes looking for reliable protection

Pro Tip: Combining a custom nightguard with professional care from our team (including Periodontists and Prosthodontists) gives you the best protection for long-term oral health.
