There are two common ways in which we damage our teeth: grinding and clenching, and playing sports. Both types of damage can be prevented — or at least lessened — with the help of our sports guards or bite appliances.
Grinding/clenching:
Grinding teeth is also known as "bruxism." It can result in chipped teeth, damaged fillings, painful headaches, and can even loosen your teeth. At Cove Dentistry, we can fit you with a special bite appliance that will protect your teeth from breaking down while you sleep.
Sports:
Playing a sport is wonderful for your health, but can leave your teeth vulnerable — particularly in contact sports such as hockey and football. We can fit athletes with sports guards to protect their teeth during physical activity.
