About
Day and Night Oral Appliances
Protecting your teeth, supporting jaw comfort, and improving breathing function.
Oral appliances are custom-made devices designed to protect the teeth, reduce muscle strain, support jaw alignment, and in some cases, improve airflow during sleep. Because they are made using digital scanning, they fit accurately and are comfortable to wear.
We offer:
- Day occlusal appliances
- Night occlusal appliances
- Sports mouthguards
- SomnoMed sleep/snoring appliances
Each appliance is selected based on your specific needs and daily habits.
Why Oral Appliances Can Help
Clenching or grinding (bruxism) and jaw tension can lead to:
- Worn or cracked teeth
- Facial or jaw muscle tightness
- Tension headaches
- TMJ discomfort
- Sensitivity or damaged dental work
A custom appliance places a protective surface between the teeth and reduces load on the jaw muscles and joints.
Occlusal Appliance
Day Occlusal Appliance
A slim, clear appliance designed for people who clench during focused activities such as driving, computer work, studying, or stress-related habits.
Helps to:
- Protect teeth during the day
- Reduce jaw muscle strain
- Allow speaking and light function while worn
Discrete and non-bulky for regular daytime use.
Night Occlusal Appliance (Night Guard)
Worn during sleep, when grinding forces are often stronger.
Supports:
- Teeth and restoration protection
- Reduced morning jaw tightness
- Long-term jaw joint comfort
- Stable positioning and comfortable breathing during sleep
Custom-shaped to your bite for stability throughout the night.
SomnoMed Snoring / Sleep Appliance
For patients experiencing snoring or mild to moderate sleep-related breathing disturbance, a SomnoMed sleep appliance gently positions the lower jaw to help maintain an open airway during sleep.
This appliance can:
- Reduce snoring
- Improve airflow
- Support deeper, more restful sleep
- Reduce overnight clenching or tension in some cases
We collaborate closely with your GP and/or sleep physician when needed to ensure safe and effective care.
Sports Mouthguards
Recommended for children and adults involved in contact or high-impact sports.
Compared to store-bought guards, custom mouthguards:
- Fit securely
- Allow easier breathing and speaking
- Offer significantly better impact protection
Suitable for football, soccer, basketball, hockey, martial arts, skating, and similar sports.
Digital Scanning for Accurate Fit
All appliances are designed using intraoral digital scanning:
- No impression material
- Highly accurate fit
- Less adjustment needed at delivery
