Teeth clenching and grinding can damage teeth and be harmful to one’s long-term oral health. Night guards are recommended to protect patients who clench or grind their teeth during the night. These custom-designed appliances are made of flexible plastic and molded to comfortably fit the shape of your teeth.
Custom-made oral appliances can also be used as part of treatment for conditions like sleep apnea and TMJ disorders. In general, plastic appliances can be used to correct a variety of problems.

"Dr. Purvis is the greatest dentist I’ve ever been too. He makes you feel welcomed and cared about. He genuinely cares about all his patients. He explains exactly what he’s doing, why he’s doing it, and how it’ll help. Dr. Shimer is the same! Understanding how to properly explain what they are doing to someone who doesn’t understand much about teeth, helps not only with anxiety, but also with helping to better understand how to care for teeth. Not to mention the dental assistants and hygienist are all amazing! Candy and Jessica are superb! And can’t forgot about the front desk ladies! The friendliest people I have ever met! Vicky, Nicole, Heather! They are all the best of the best of the best!"
