Unconscious grinding of the teeth during sleep is a condition known as bruxism. If you are grinding your teeth in your sleep most nights, you should contact our office for a night guard.
A night guard is a removable dental appliance that is similar to an athletic mouth guard. It provides a barrier between your top and bottom teeth to protect them while you sleep.
Drs. Fennell, Cathcart and Sucin will custom fit your night guard to ensure your comfort and safety. Night guards can protect your teeth from wear, gum irritation, enamel damage, and jaw pain.
At your appointment, Drs. Fennell, Cathcart and Sucin will discuss other ways to help reduce or eliminate night grinding. This may include avoiding chewing gum, alcohol, and caffeine, as these increase the risks of grinding.
If you suspect you may have issues with teeth grinding, contact our office for an appointment.

“The best dentist office around! All the staff are fabulous, so professional and kind. My family and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. And that Dr. Fennell is one awesome dentist, with every patient, even children and the elderly. I recommend this office to everyone that needs a dentist!“
“Great dentist! I had the same dentist for 35 years. I was very nervous about going to a new dentist. Piedmont Family Dentistry felt like home at the first visit. One crown and two years later, same great service.”
