Bruxism, Teeth Grinding and Night Guard use



80% of Americans that suffer from bruxism (nighttime teeth grinding) go undiagnosed. Of the 20% that get diagnosed, most do nothing about the grinding. The more-than-$400 price tags of hand-crafted night guards frighten away many bruxers, and many grinders don’t realize that there are reasonably priced, over-the-counter custom night guards available for less than $50. We hope this site brings a greater awareness of bruxism and the healthy benefits of using a good night guard.
