If your child plays sports or struggles with teeth grinding, our pediatric dental office would be happy to create a custom-made mouth guard for him or her. An athletic mouth guard will protect your little one’s smile while he or she is active. Meanwhile, a special appliance known as a night guard can prevent excessive wear and tear for young patients who struggle with teeth grinding. If you have questions about either service, don’t hesitate to let us know.
