Night Guards / Bite Splints
We offer a wide range of nightguards/bite splints for every patient. They can make a huge difference for your patients who grind their teeth. Dr. Gordon Christensen has estimated that one-third of the U.S. population either bruxes or clenches their teeth, which results in tooth damage.

Hard Processed Acrylic
Our Hard Acrylic Night Guards are waxed and processed just like our Dentures. They are fabricated with Lucitone® Clear acrylic and heat cured for maximum strength. Prescribe the hard acrylic night guard for your patients that require a rigid night guard with absolutely no flexibility. However, we can add a soft liner for added patient comfort. It can easily be repaired and is also easy to add to should you need to adjust the vertical.
A simple vacuum formed nightguard recommended for younger patients or those with mild to moderate bruxism.
A clear splint designed to alleviate the pain and damage caused by bruxing or clenching of the teeth. It is the most widely prescribed bite splint available due to its comfort and fit. Two layers make up the Splint: a 1 mm soft polyurethane inner layer that rests comfortably against the teeth and gums; and a 3 mm hard, clear co-polyester outer layer that provides durability and bonds with acrylic for easy modification. Each splint is made with a standard flat occlusal plane and slight opposing cusp indentation or to your specific bite plane needs. The soft liner assures patient comfort and the hard surface assures long-lasting wear.
The most advanced night guard, our Impak™ is milled to give the highest quality possible! It has optimally balanced chewing surfaces, option front guide planes. CAD/CAM technology offers a customized fit to the patient’s unique dental anatomy, ensuring optimal comfort and effectiveness while minimizing irritation or discomfort. Patients report quick adaption and ease of use.
We are now also offering 3D printed nightguards directly from your digital scan! These are highly accurate, long-lasting and a perfect fit every time!
