Night Guards
BOOK NOWProtect Your Smile While You Sleep
Many people clench or grind their teeth without even realizing it. This habit, known as bruxism, often occurs during sleep and can lead to worn teeth, jaw pain, headaches, and damage to dental restorations over time. A custom night guard provides a simple, comfortable solution to protect your smile while you sleep.
At Risus Dental Studio, we create custom-made night guards designed specifically for your bite and comfort. Dr. David E. Gonzalez carefully evaluates your symptoms and oral health to provide a personalized appliance that helps protect your teeth, relieve jaw tension, and support your long-term dental health.
What Is a Night Guard?
A night guard is a custom oral appliance worn while you sleep to protect your teeth from the effects of grinding and clenching. It creates a protective barrier between your upper and lower teeth, reducing excessive pressure on your teeth, jaw joints, and surrounding muscles.
Unlike over-the-counter options, a custom night guard is made specifically for your smile, providing a more comfortable fit, improved durability, and better protection.
Night guards are commonly recommended for patients who experience nighttime teeth grinding, jaw discomfort, or signs of excessive tooth wear.
What Can a Night Guard Help Treat?
A custom night guard can help protect your smile and relieve symptoms caused by bruxism and excessive clenching.

- Jaw pain.
- Morning headaches.
