We’ve said it before, and we will say it again: The team at Dental Arts of Rockland is all about protecting your teeth and keeping them in the beautiful state nature intended. So while we do love performing cosmetic dentistry or seeing the incredible changes offered by cosmetic dental procedures, we’d rather keep our patients’ teeth safe. That’s why we offer the comfort and convenience of custom-made mouthguards for folks of all ages and stages.

Nightguards: Do you have craze marks or tiny lines forming in your teeth? Have you noticed that your teeth look just a little bit shorter in your smile that they used to? Do you have frequent headaches? You might grind your teeth or suffer from bruxism. Our lives are increasingly fast-paced and stress-filled and we are seeing more and more patients showing signs of bruxism. If not treated, it can lead to breaking teeth, TMJ disease, and migraines. It can also ruin much of the restorative or cosmetic dentistry you have invested in. That’s why Dental Arts of Rockland offers custom-made nightguards and bruxism guards. These special mouthguards protect your teeth and keep your jaw more comfortably balanced for a better night’s sleep and peace of mind.

Sportsguards: Unlike over-the-counter athletic mouthguards, our custom-made and fitted mouthpieces are not only great at protecting you and your kids from soft tissue and dental injuries they also help prevent concussions! According to the Academy of General Dentistry, kids wearing over-the-counter mouthguards were two times more likely to suffer mild traumatic brain injuries than those wearing properly fitted, dentist-made guards. We think our patient’s smiles – and brains––are worth it!
