Nightguards or Occlusal Splints
Waking up with a sore jaw, tight jaw muscles, or headaches? Experiencing chipping, cracking and wear on your teeth? These may be signs of bruxism—the habit of clenching or grinding your teeth during sleep. Common triggers include stress, certain medications, and sleep disorders.
If you’re experiencing these symptoms, our friendly dentists are here to help. One of the most effective treatments is a custom-made nightguard or bite splint, designed to protect your teeth and relieve pressure on the jaw joints.
Using state-of-the-art digital scanners, we take precise records of your teeth and bite. This allows us to create a splint that fits comfortably and requires minimal adjustment, making the process smooth and efficient from start to finish.
By managing bruxism early, we can help prevent tooth damage and reduce the risk of ongoing jaw joint dysfunction.
Sleep Apnoea Devices
If you snore or have been diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA), a custom-made oral appliance could be a game-changer.
Instead of relying on a bulky CPAP machine, many patients find relief using a Mandibular Advancement Splint (MAS)—a slim, comfortable device that gently repositions the lower jaw to keep the airway open during sleep. These appliances are discreet, easy to wear, and easy to tolerate, resulting in better sleep and improved overall health.
At Beach Street Dental Centre, our dentists will carefully review your symptoms and any sleep study results to determine whether this treatment is right for you. Using advanced digital scanners, we take precise records of your teeth and bite—ensuring a snug fit and minimal adjustments when your device is delivered.
