Protect Your Oral Health, Day & Night
Maintaining good oral health is more than just brushing and flossing. If you play sports, snore, or clench or grind your teeth, dental appliances can help to preserve and protect your oral structures, and the health of your whole body.
Sleep apnea is a condition that causes you to stop breathing while you sleep. Our dentist offer snoring and sleep apnea appliances devices to help keep your airway open.
Mouth guards are protective devices that cover your teeth and gums to prevent and reduce injury to your teeth, lips, and gums. The mouth guards we offer are custom-made to fit closely and comfortably over the top of your teeth. This close fit helps to ensure that your teeth have optimal protection.
Snoring & Sleep Apnea Appliances
Sleep disorders can disrupt your sleep and negatively impact your overall health and well-being. They can disrupt your school or work performance, mental health and physical health.
For patients who snore, their relaxed throat tissues cause the airway to restrict, creating the sound of snoring as oxygen is forced past. For patients with sleep apnea, their throat tissues over-relax and obstruct the airway, forcing the brain to wake them up to breathe.
At Centre Dentaire Jardins Dorval, we offer custom-fitted oral appliances to move the lower jaw and tongue muscles to open the airway. This helps improve your flow of breath and prevents you from waking up throughout the night.
Custom-Fitted Mouth Guards
Sports Guards
A mouth guard provides a barrier between your teeth and the soft tissue of your mouth to protect your smile. It creates a cushion protecting against any impact that may occur from limbs or sports equipment.
Night Guards
If you grind your teeth while you sleep, you may experience damage due to the repeated friction. A night guard can help protect your teeth against this motion. If you clench your jaw, a mouth guard will also help prevent you from clenching and provide some pain relief.
