Dental Night Guard
The old-fashioned method of treating bruxism is to cover the teeth with a night guard to protect them from the strong vertical forces caused by grinding, which causes teeth to crack, break, and, over decades, slowly wear the teeth away to stubs.
Seniors usually grind their teeth during sleep and night guards are worn to help protect their natural teeth, and keep them in better shape. It is always recommended to use dental night guards since they help protect teeth from injury and teeth grinding.
