Splints and nightguards are dental appliances that are used to protect teeth, jaws, and related structures from damage or injury.

A splint is a dental device that is used to stabilize teeth that have become loose or to protect teeth after oral surgery or trauma. Splints can be made from a variety of materials, including acrylic, metal wires, or a combination of materials. They are typically designed to fit over several teeth and may be worn for a few weeks or months to allow the teeth to heal or to prevent further damage.

A nightguard is a dental appliance that is worn while sleeping to protect teeth from the damaging effects of clenching or grinding, also known as bruxism. Nightguards are typically made from a soft or hard plastic material and are custom-made to fit your teeth. They work by cushioning your teeth and absorbing the forces generated by clenching or grinding, preventing damage to the teeth and jaw muscles.

Nightguards can also be used to treat other conditions, such as temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, by reducing the strain on the jaw joints and muscles.

Both splints and nightguards are designed to protect your teeth and oral structures and can be beneficial for those who have experienced dental trauma or have bruxism.

R-Guard - Pressure Laminated Mouthguards

The finest choice in mouthguards is a custom-made pressure laminated mouthguard. Proper fit and comfort are essential. Pressure-laminated mouthguards are a perfect fit, allowing the user to breathe and speak freely. They are odourless, tasteless, and hypoallergenic and the material is resilient and tear-resistant.

Pressure lamination provides a closer, more intimate adaptation of the dental model. This capability to laminate is only successful with high heat and pressure, unattainable with the traditional vacuum technique. Consistent thickness in critical areas provides better protection than boil-and-bite mouthguards or even vacuum-made guards. The thickness is determined according to each patient and age, sport, level of competition and past history of injury are all considerations. Even people who wear braces can wear a pressure-laminated mouthguard.
