People who grind their teeth (bruxism) and people with sleep apnea can get relief from their symptoms simply by wearing a specially-designed mouth guard at night. <a href=\"http:\/\/cypressspringsdental.com\/about-us\/\">Dr. Todd<\/a> has helped tons of Cypress residents improve the quality of their life with night guards and we at Cypress Springs Family Dentistry invite you to come visit us today to find out more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cypressspringsdental.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-19-at-2.53.50-PM.png\" alt=\"Night Guards\" class=\"wp-image-323\" width=\"345\" height=\"290\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Night Guards for Bruxism<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bruxism, or teeth grinding, is a very common condition. Everyone grinds their teeth at some point, but some Cypress folks do it so much (especially at night) that it causes severe damage to their teeth, headaches, jaw aches, <a href=\"http:\/\/cypressspringsdental.com\/services\/general-dentistry\/#TMJTMD\">TMJ (temporomandibular joint disorder)<\/a> issues and more. The problem is that most bruxism sufferers don\u2019t know that they are actually clenching and grinding their teeth. The best treatment for bruxism is wearing a night guard to protect your teeth from the most harmful grinding and clenching, which happens during sleep. The bruxism guards we offer at Cypress Springs Family Dentistry are custom-fitted to your mouth and extremely effective at protecting your teeth from damage and getting rid of bruxism symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Night Guards for Sleep Apnea<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Night guards are also a great way to get relief from sleep apnea. Cypress adults who frequently snore, wake up with a very sore or dry throat, feel fatigued during the day, and have to urinate many times during the night may be suffering from this disorder. Sleep apnea interferes with air flow, causing you to stop breathing as many as 400 times per night, and can have potentially life-threatening side-effects. In addition to CPAP machines, night guards are recognized by the FDA as an effective treatment method for sleep apnea. By slightly shifting your bite, sleep apnea night guards allow for increased airflow and normal breathing. If you have been diagnosed with sleep apnea, Dr. Todd will fit you with a custom-molded night guard to help you get your restful sleep back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We care about making sure that everyone in Cypress enjoys quality sleep and can show it with a beautiful smile.
