Mouth guard for Teeth Grinding in Brent Cross

Beam Dental can provide you with a quality custom-made mouth guard in Brent Cross. Mouth guards are rubber covers that fit securely over your teeth and gums. They’re typically worn overnight by people who suffer from bruxism, also known as teeth grinding. You may also benefit from a mouth guard if you participate in organised sports; it’s often essential for protecting the soft tissue, teeth, jaws, and neck from injury.

Custom-made for utmost comfort and precision

At your initial consultation, you’ll meet with one of our friendly and skilled dentists in Brent Cross who will take impressions of your teeth. These impressions will be used to custom-make your mouth guard for a perfect fit.

Protecting your dental health

Mouth guards act as a barrier between the upper and lower teeth, which relieves pressure and stops the teeth grinding against each other. Mouth guards prevent the teeth from chipping and breaking, the jaw from straining, and put an end to any grinding noises you may make during the night.

How long does a mouth guard last for?

Younger people will need their mouth guards changed fairly often to accommodate new teeth growing through. Adults can keep the same mouth guard for a longer period of time before it needs replacing due to general wear and tear.

Bring your mouth guard with you to your next appointment at our dental practice in Brent Cross. Your dentist will take a look at it and provide you with a replacement if necessary.

How much does a mouth guard cost?

Our dental surgery in Brent Cross provides patients with high-quality, custom-made mouth guards at affordable prices. Your dentist will discuss the cost of your mouth guard with you at your consultation.

How do over-the-counter mouth guards compare?

Cheaper mouth guards are available over the counter from pharmacies. However, these mouth guards are often uncomfortable and fit poorly. They are boiled in water, cooled, and bitten into so they mould against the teeth.

A professional mouth guard made by our dental clinic in Brent Cross is crafted from precise impressions of your teeth. This results in an accurate fit, and increased comfort and protection. Although more expensive, a custom-made mouth guard is a worthwhile investment in your dental health.

FAQs

How Long Does Dental Implant Treatment Take?

Dental implant treatment typically takes between 3 to 6 months from start to finish. This allows time for the implant to properly fuse with the jawbone (a process called osseointegration). In some cases, if additional procedures like bone grafting are required, the overall timeline may be longer.

Are Dental Implants Painful?

Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the procedure. The implant placement is usually carried out under local anaesthetic, so you won’t feel pain during treatment. Afterward, mild soreness or swelling is normal for a few days and can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.

How Long Do Dental Implants Last?

Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution and can last 10–15 years or more with proper care. In many cases, they can last a lifetime. Maintaining good oral hygiene and attending regular dental check-ups are key to ensuring their longevity.

Can Anyone Get Dental Implants?

Most adults with good general and oral health are suitable candidates for dental implants. However, sufficient bone density in the jaw is needed to support the implant. Patients with certain medical conditions or those who smoke heavily may require additional assessment or treatment before proceeding.

How Do I Look After My Implants?

Caring for dental implants is similar to caring for natural teeth. This includes brushing twice daily, flossing regularly, and attending routine dental visits. Good oral hygiene helps prevent complications such as gum disease, which can affect the success of the implant over time.
