1. How does The StressGard night guard work?

The StressGard night guard works by providing a cushion between the upper and lower teeth which will prevent you from "locking" your teeth together when you grind/brux. this will prevent the over activation of the facial muscles which causes the pain. The StressGard night guard also provides a smooth protective surface for your teeth to slide on thus preventing damage to the teeth and enamel.

6. Do you recommend The StressGard night guard for children?

The StressGard night guard is one size fits all and the entire guard can be trimmed with scissors. We do not recommend children under 10 years old use The StressGard night guard. Grinding in children is very common and when it involves children with their primary teeth, the damage will not be lasting since these teeth will be replaced. We recommend if your are concerned with your child's grinding that you visit your dentist.
