Night guard vs Sport Guard

It is not usual to confuse these two mouth guards even though they both protect your teeth. Sport guards with night guardswhile both of these oral appliances protect your teeth, they do so in different ways. A sports guard or mouth guard protects your smile while playing contact sports. A night guard stops you from grinding or clenching teeth while you sleep. Night guard is best especially for people who have dental crowns and dental veneers, it will protect those from chipping and breaking.

During sleep, the brain sends signals to the rest of the body to completely relax and recharge. Along with the arms, legs and etc., tongue and jaw becomes too relaxed. During sleep, it is common for the jaw to slightly move back, which results on teeth grouching together.
