Night Guards

Night Guards in Jerusalem – Advanced Protection for Teeth Grinding, Clenching & Bruxism

At Sreter Clinic in Jerusalem, we provide custom-made night guards designed to protect your teeth from grinding (bruxism), clenching, excessive pressure, and long-term tooth wear.

Bruxism is one of the most common causes of tooth damage, fractures, worn teeth, jaw pain, headaches, and bite problems. Many patients grind or clench their teeth during sleep without even realizing it.

A professionally made night guard helps protect the teeth, reduce pressure on the jaw joints and muscles, and prevent long-term damage.

What is bruxism?

Bruxism is the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth, often during sleep.

Over time, this can cause:

• Tooth wear

• Cracks and fractures

• Chipped teeth

• Broken crowns

• Jaw pain

• Muscle tension

• TMJ discomfort

• Morning headaches

• Tooth sensitivity

• Bite changes

Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent serious damage.

Signs you may need a night guard

Common signs include:

• Waking up with jaw pain

• Headaches in the morning

• Sensitive teeth

• Flattened or worn teeth

• Cracked teeth

• Clicking or tension in the jaw

• Tight facial muscles

• Broken fillings or crowns

At Sreter Clinic, we evaluate both the teeth and bite to identify the underlying cause.

Custom-made night guards

Unlike over-the-counter night guards, our custom-made appliances are:

✔ Stronger and more durable
✔ Precisely fitted

This means:

The result is a stronger, better-fitting guard that protects both your teeth and jaw.
