Bruxism

Night-time protection.

Do you wake up with jaw pain or headaches that just won’t quit? You might be grinding your teeth at night without even knowing it! Over time, this can cause real discomfort – from tooth wear to chronic pain in your head, jaw, and even your back. We’re here to help with custom night guards and, more importantly, get to the root of why it’s happening, whether it’s stress, lifestyle, or other factors.

Sleep apnoea and airway dentistry

Breathe easy, sleep better

Are you constantly tired despite a full night’s sleep? Snoring keeping your partner awake? You might be surprised to learn that your dentist can help! Sleep apnoea and airway issues are more connected to oral health than most people realise. We are experienced in identifying airway issues and providing effective dental solutions, such as custom oral appliances that keep your airway open while you sleep. These comfortable, non-invasive devices can be life-changing alternatives or complements to CPAP machines. Better sleep means better health, more energy, and a happier you – let’s help you breathe easier and wake up feeling truly refreshed!

A joined-up approach

When treating tooth grinding, we take a holistic approach that takes your lifestyle as a whole into account. This means:

• Identifying the reason for your grinding – this can be caused by stress, anxiety, an uneven bite, acidity and sleep apnoea.
• If stress is the cause of your tooth wear, we can help suggest ways to manage this stress.
• Providing you with a split to prevent involuntary grinding at night-time (if clinically necessary).
• Repairing tooth wear caused by tooth grinding with treatments such as composite bonding and crowns.
• Identifying pain related to tooth grinding (jaw aches, headaches, neck aches and aches at the top of the spine, as well as ear-related issues such as tinnitus).

We will never simply send you home with a splint, and with this joined-up approach, we have helped improve the quality of life of many patients.
