Nightguards/Anti-Snoring Devices
People often don't know that they snore or grind their teeth while sleeping. However, these habits wreak havoc on the body! Teeth grinding, known as bruxism in the medical world, can wear down teeth, cause chips and cracks, and even promote TMJ disorder. Snoring interferes with restful sleep, so oftentimes, snoring patients feel tired, forgetful, and irritable during the day.
The good news is, as your general dentist, Dr. Jackson has a simple solution for both teeth grinders and snorers! An oral appliance called a nightguard can prevent teeth from touching while you sleep, so grinding is impossible. Likewise, an oral appliance for snoring positions the jaw forward just enough to alleviate snores and allow you to sleep soundly.
If you've been told that you grind your teeth or snore, ask Dr. Jackson for help! A custom nightguard will give you – and your spouse – the fulfilling rest that you need. Bruxers can protect their teeth all night long with a safe and effective oral appliance.
Our Carrollton dental office serves patients from across the DFW area, including those from Dallas, Lewisville, Plano, The Colony, Coppell, and beyond. Call today to schedule your consultation with Dr. Jackson and set out on a road for lifetime oral wellness and an unforgettable smile.
