Custom Mouth Guards

A custom-fit guard protects your teeth from grinding damage and sports injuries — that actually stays in place.

Whether you grind your teeth at night or play contact sports, a custom mouth guard protects your teeth, jaw joint, and dental work far better than anything you’ll find at a pharmacy.


Dr. Daniel Dafo offers custom night guards for patients who grind or clench (bruxism) — protecting teeth from fractures and reducing TMJ strain — and sports guards for athletes of all ages. Each one is made from an impression of your teeth for a precise, comfortable fit that stays in place.


When Dr. Dafo Recommends a Night Guard

If he sees signs of grinding — worn enamel, micro-cracks, jaw tension — he’ll recommend a night guard. But he’ll also tell you something important: a night guard is a band-aid, not a cure. If misalignment is the root cause, Invisalign may be the longer-term solution. He’ll explain both options and help you decide what’s right.

    With proper care, a custom night guard can last several years. Dr. Dafo checks the fit and condition at your regular visits.
