Astron Nightguards

Dental Lab Mouth Guards & Night Guards

Mouth Guards and Night Guards Overview

Mouth Guards & Night Guards

Mouth guards are most commonly used to help protect the teeth and mouth from injury during physical sports or activities. For example, football players wear mouthguards to protect against dental trauma or jaw injuries that may occur due to contact with other players or hard objects.

A custom-fitted mouth guard can protect teeth from nighttime teeth grinding, or bruxism. It is important to note that wearing a mouth guard does not prevent teeth grinding, but only helps to reduce the risk of injury from the grinding.

The main difference between nightguards and mouthguards is that nightguards are specifically designed to protect the teeth and mouth from injury due to nighttime teeth grinding. Mouth guards, on the other hand, can be used to protect the teeth and mouth from injury during physical activities such as sports. In addition, nightguards are customfitted to the users individual mouth for maximum comfort and protection, whereas mouthguards are usually onesizefitsall.

Mouth guards and night guards help protect bruxing patients’ natural teeth as well as their investment in restorative work with custom Astron Clearsplint™ Night Guards from Keating Dental Lab. Hard or hard/soft Night Guards are hand-pressed to ensure comfort and an ideal fit.

With a more accurate fit and lower profile than off-the-shelf “boil and bite” athletic mouthguards, custom mouthguards protect more than just enamel: Mouthguards can prevent lacerations, bruising and neurological damage. Designed not to inhibit breathing to allow for optimal on-field performance, Keating Dental Lab’s custom mouthguards are available in a wide range of colors.

The CLEARsplint® material is what stands behind Astron Nightguard’s excellent quality. For over two decades, Astron’s proprietary CLEARsplint® has been the go-to material for dentists and dental labs to build reliable and comfortable nightguards.

It is the best material for creating nightguards and splints that address pain and prevent further damage to teeth caused by grinding and clenching. CLEARsplint nightguards are practically undetectable when worn and adapt to the wearer’s mouth for added comfort. Additionally, both styles are free of amine and methyl methacrylate, meaning they won’t discolor or cause any MMA allergies.
