Custom Night Guards in Edmonton

The wear happens to the guard instead of your enamel

Most people who grind their teeth don’t actually know they do it until we point out the wear, or someone mentions it over breakfast. Waking up with a sore jaw is often the other tell, along with a partner nudging you awake because of the noise.

A night guard is a custom-fitted mouth guard you wear while you sleep. It absorbs the pressure of grinding and clenching instead of your teeth, night after night. Left unaddressed, that pressure adds up slowly and quietly, which is exactly why most people don’t notice it happening until we point it out at a cleaning.

How do you get fitted for a night guard?

Fitting a night guard takes two visits: one to scan your teeth, and one to fit the finished piece. In between, your guard is custom-made to fit your mouth, not manufactured from a generic mould, so it actually feels comfortable instead of just functional.

Most people find they forget they’re wearing a mouth guard for grinding after the first few nights.

No white coats, no judgment, no pressure

This clinic has been nothing but amazing! They have a “homey” feeling to the clinic so there is not this huge wave of anxiety as you are entering the building. The staff are very welcoming, the dental assistants and Dr.Chin are very amazing, very kind, and very gentle. They have done such an amazing job with my daughter as well as myself. I will continue to keep coming back😊

I am an anxious dental patient. Went to Norwood on a recommendation and am grateful I did. This family office (too many are owned by big coros) made me feel safe and in good hands. Never ever has a dentist's office cared so much about what makes the experience good for me. They truly live up to the values they advertise. Highly recommend!

We took our 4-year old son for a checkup at Norwood Dental and he loved it. His review: "They tickled my teeth, I got to choose bubblegum flavour AND I got a green goblin toy. I really like my present, everyone was so nice. I want to go this dentist again with Mom". We'll be back, I can't recommend Norwood Dental highly enough.

So grateful to have found this clinic and Dr Chin. Him and his wife Amanda go above and beyond in their care, the environment is always so welcoming, each person does their very best in their role. I suffered from dental problems for years, in and out of a clinic that seemed to care more about a paycheque than helping, but Dr chin is the complete opposite. Myself and my son had all of our dental work completed and up to date within only a couple months of consistent appointments. My dental anxiety has gone from a 10 to almost falling asleep in the chair. I am so thankful. Thank you again Norwood dental.

Best dentist experience ever ! Every single staff member at Norwood is amazing, they make you feel so comfortable and taken care of ! Dr.Chin is so kind, honest, explains everything ; and never pressures you to get extra dental work that isn’t necessary. Can’t recommend enough!

I consistently feel comfortable and at ease when I receive outstanding dental hygiene and services. Tony, the hygienist, is excellent, and Emily, the dentist, is exceptional. I have complete confidence in their ability to care for my entire family. From the welcoming receptionist to the attentive hygienist, assistant, and doctors, everyone genuinely shows compassion and goes out of their way to ensure I feel comfortable and supported. This clinic consistently exceeds our expectations with its kindness and dedicated care.

Frequently Asked Questions About Night Guards

Night guards or teeth grinding guards work best for anyone who grinds their teeth at night. People experiencing jaw pain or who have visibly worn teeth from grinding can benefit from wearing a night guard.

It usually takes two visits. The first visit is where we scan your mouth to create a mould for your night guard. The second visit is where we ensure your night guard is a great fit.

A night guard or night guard for TMJ is often partially covered under dental plans, and we can help you find out exactly what your plan covers so you know your options in advance. We’ll confirm the details before you commit to anything.
