Dentists are qualified to make mouth guards, which are dental appliances worn over the teeth to protect them from damage. Mouth guards are often used during sports activities or when sleeping to prevent teeth grinding.
There are many benefits to wearing a mouth guard, including protecting the teeth from chips, cracks, and fractures. Mouth guards can also help to reduce pain and discomfort caused by teeth grinding, and can even help to improve sleep quality. In some cases, dentists may recommend wearing a mouth guard to help correct bite problems or jaw misalignment.
