Who it suits

When a custom night guard may help

Wear can have several causes. We check teeth, restorations, muscles and bite before recommending a guard, and investigate symptoms that need a different approach.

Flattened or chipped tooth edges
Repeatedly fractured fillings or bonding
Known night-time grinding
Jaw muscle fatigue on waking
Crowns or veneers needing protection
A retention plan that also needs bite protection

The reception and waiting area at Sunny Dental in Twickenham — Our reception on London Road — calm, unhurried and nothing like a clinic waiting room.

How treatment works

From first visit to finished smile

Diagnose

We look for wear patterns, cracks, muscle tenderness and other causes of tooth or jaw discomfort.

Record

A scan or impression captures the teeth and bite so the appliance can fit securely without unwanted movement.

Fit

The guard is checked for comfort, retention and even contact, then adjusted before you take it home.

Review

Fit and wear are checked, particularly after new dental work or if symptoms change.

Fees

Custom night guard fee

The approved fee is for a custom appliance made from your own scan or impression, not an over-the-counter guard.

Why choose us

Protection based on diagnosis

Not every ache is grinding

We examine the teeth and jaw before prescribing an appliance rather than using a guard as a universal answer.

Custom fit

A made-to-measure guard is adjusted to the bite and reviewed instead of relying on a bulky boil-and-bite fit.

Part of restorative planning

Protection is considered when planning bonding, veneers, crowns and heavily restored teeth.

Common questions

Asked at almost every consultation

How much is a custom night guard in Twickenham?

A custom night guard starts from £395. The fee and design are confirmed after checking your teeth, restorations and bite.

Will a night guard stop me grinding?

It mainly protects teeth and restorations from the effects of grinding. It may reduce muscle load for some people, but it does not guarantee that the grinding habit stops.

Can I buy one from a shop?

Over-the-counter guards are not fitted to your bite and may feel bulky or unstable. A custom guard is made from your teeth and adjusted to distribute contact appropriately.

How long does a night guard last?

That depends on grinding force, material and care. Bring it to reviews so wear, fit and changes after dental treatment can be checked.
