PROTECTORES NOCTURNOS

Lo más probable es que, si alguna vez te has despertado con dolor de cabeza o de mandíbula sin motivo aparente, sufras bruxismo. Según la Asociación Dental Americana, 15 de cada 100 adultos padecen bruxismo, es decir, aprietan o rechinan los dientes. Este fenómeno puede producirse en cualquier momento, especialmente cuando la persona experimenta situaciones de estrés y al dormir. Desgraciadamente, esta situación puede causar un desgaste anormal y exagerado de los dientes, además de fisuras o incluso fracturas. También puede causar dolor en la mandíbula, insomnio y dolores de cabeza. Nuestros dentistas en Oxnard, Santa Paula, Ventura, Newbury Park y Port Hueneme notarán rápidamente esta situación al examinarlos y recomendarán el uso de un protector nocturno.

1. ¿QUÉ SON LOS PROTECTORES NOCTURNOS?

Los protectores dentales nocturnos, también conocidos como protectores de mordida, oclusales o férulas, se colocan sobre los dientes para protegerlos. Estos protectores no están diseñados para evitar que las personas aprieten o rechinen los dientes. Cuando se aprieta la mandíbula, el protector dental nocturno ayuda a aliviar la tensión y a amortiguar los músculos de la mandíbula.
Esta amortiguación no sólo ayuda a prevenir el dolor de cabeza, cara y mandíbula, sino que también protege el esmalte dental. Además de llevar un protector nocturno personalizado por la noche, su dentista también puede hacerle algunas recomendaciones que pueden ayudar a reducir la frecuencia e intensidad del apretamiento y rechinamiento de los dientes. Esto puede incluir limitar el consumo de cafeína y alcohol, reducir o eliminar el consumo de tabaco, especialmente justo antes de acostarse, y realizar actividades relajantes como un baño caliente, yoga o escuchar música suave antes de retirarse.

1. WHAT ARE NIGHTGUARDS?

A nightguard is also known as a bite, occlusal guard or splint device is placed over the teeth for protection. These guards are not designed to prevent people from clenching or grinding their teeth. When you clench your jaw, the dental night guard will help relieve the tension and cushion the jaw muscles.

This cushioning not only helps prevent head, face, and jaw pain but it will also protect the tooth enamel. In addition to wearing a customized nightguard at night, your dentist can also make some recommendations that can help reduce the frequency and intensity of clenching and grinding of the teeth. This may include limiting caffeine and alcohol consumption, reducing or eliminating tobacco use, especially just before bedtime, and engaging in relaxing activities such as a warm bath, yoga, or listening to soft music before retiring.

2. HOW ARE NIGHTGUARDS MADE?

Nightguards are usually made of plastic; they are designed to be worn over the upper or lower teeth, most commonly  over the upper teeth. A model of your mouth will be needed, as these guards are custom designed for you in a dental lab. Models will be made in the office with our dentists in Oxnard, Santa Paula, Ventura, and Port Hueneme.They are made in a way that allows you to breathe easily and speak normally.

They are designed to be comfortable on the teeth. Water may be imbibed while wearing them, but you should avoid sugary foods and drinks to keep the guards clean and prevent bacteria buildup on the teeth during sleep.

3. HOW NIGHTGUARDS WORK

The American Association of Orthodontists explains that just before reaching deep sleep, different reasons cause breathing pauses, especially our tongue or the position we adopt. They can pause or even block our breathing.. In these cases,the brain orders the jaw to act, tighten, and grind to keep the airways open and to be able to breathe. This allows us to continue breathing but prevents us from going into a deep sleep. Generally,  this is reflected in our mental and physical health.

  • A nightguard:

A nightguard  protects the teeth since the force exerted by the jaw is such that it could fracture them. However, in addition tothis protections, the most important thing is to understand and eliminate the causes that provoke  sleep disturbance.

  • A nightguard:

There are also other reasons for teeth clenching. As mentioned before, it usually occurs when we are in high-stress situations. By using nightguards and treating the cause of the stress, we will prevent damage to the teeth.

2. ¿CÓMO SE HACEN LOS PROTECTORES NOCTURNOS?

Los protectores nocturnos suelen ser de plástico y están diseñados para llevarlos sobre los dientes superiores o inferiores, normalmente sobre los superiores. Un modelo de su boca será necesario, ya que estos guardias están diseñados a medida para usted en un laboratorio dental. Los modelos se harán en la oficina con nuestros dentistas en Oxnard, Santa Paula, Ventura, Newbury ParkPort Hueneme. se hacen de una manera que le permite respirar fácilmente y hablar normalmente.
Están diseñados para ser cómodo en los dientes. Se puede beber agua mientras los lleva puestos, pero debe evitar los alimentos y bebidas azucaradas para mantener limpios los protectores y evitar la acumulación de bacterias en los dientes durante el sueño.

3. ¿CÓMO FUNCIONAN LOS PROTECTORES NOCTURNOS?

La Asociación Americana de Ortodoncistas explica que, justo antes de alcanzar el sueño profundo, distintos motivos provocan pausas respiratorias, especialmente nuestra lengua o la postura que adoptamos. Pueden pausar o incluso bloquear nuestra respiración.. En estos casos,el cerebro ordena a la mandíbula que actúe, apriete y rechine para mantener abiertas las vías respiratorias y poder respirar. Esto nos permite seguir respirando pero nos impide entrar en un sueño profundo. En general, esto se refleja en nuestra salud mental y física.

  • Un protector nocturno:

Un protector nocturno protege los dientes, ya que la fuerza ejercida por la mandíbula es tal que podría fracturarlos. Sin embargo, además de estas protecciones, lo más importante es comprender y eliminar las causas que provocan los trastornos apnea del sueño.

  • Un protector nocturno:

También hay otras razones para apretar los dientes. Como ya se ha mencionado, suele ocurrir cuando nos encontramos en situaciones de mucho estrés. Utilizando protectores nocturnos y tratando la causa del estrés, evitaremos daños en los dientes.

4. THE BENEFITS OF A NIGHTGUARD

Wearing a well-fitting, custom-fitted nightguard can help protect your teeth, sleep well, and avoid headaches and jaw pain in the morning. Bruxism is, in fact, one of the principal causes of endodontics, as the wear on the tooth gets to the point where the deeper tissues are exposed. This will cause sensitivity and pain, plus it will be difficult to restore with resins as these restorations do not last.

 

Nightguards are less expensive than crowns, veneers, bridges, implants, extractions, and root canals that are sometimes necessary to repair teeth that have been worn down or damaged by clenching and grinding. Our dentists in Oxnard, Santa Paula, Ventura, and Port Hueneme may recommend that you start wearing one for a few hours while you are awake, so you can get used to the sensation before sleeping with it. If well cared for, nightguards can last up to ten years, making them a very worthwhile investment.

4. BENEFICIOS DE LOS PROTECTORES NOCTURNOS

Llevar un protector nocturno bien ajustado y hecho a medida puede ayudar a proteger los dientes, dormir bien y evitar dolores de cabeza y mandíbula por la mañana. El bruxismo es, de hecho, una de las principales causas de endodoncia, ya que el desgaste del diente llega al punto de exponer los tejidos más profundos. Esto causará sensibilidad y dolor, además de que será difícil restaurar con resinas, ya que estas restauraciones no duran.

Los protectores nocturnos son menos costosos que las coronas, carillas, puentes, implantes, extracciones y tratamientos de conducto que a veces son necesarios para reparar los dientes que se han desgastado o dañado por apretar y rechinar. Nuestros dentistas en Oxnard, Santa Paula, Ventura, Newbury ParkPort Hueneme pueden recomendar que comience a usar uno durante unas horas mientras está despierto, para que pueda acostumbrarse a la sensación antes de dormir con él. Si se cuidan bien, los protectores nocturnos pueden durar hasta diez años, lo que los convierte en una inversión muy rentable.
Para cuidar tu protector nocturno debes
  • Enjuague:

su protector bucal con agua fría o enjuague bucal antes y después de cada uso o límpielo con jabón suave y un cepillo de dientes.

  • Guarde:

el protector bucal en un recipiente firme y perforado para guardarlo o transportarlo. Esto permite la circulación del aire y ayuda a prevenir daños. Si el protector bucal es acrílico, guárdelo en agua fresca y limpia.

  • Protege:

el protector nocturno de las altas temperaturas, como el agua caliente, las superficies calientes o la luz solar directa, para evitar que se deforme.

  • Compruebe:

de vez en cuando el desgaste general del protector bucal. Si encuentra agujeros o desgarros o si se afloja o causa molestias, debe sustituirlo.

  • Lleve:

el protector bucal en cada visita periódica al dentista para su revisión.

4. How to have an invisalign aligner?

Invisalign aligners are a completely digital system, so at the first appointment, impressions of the upper and lower teeth will be accurately taken. Alternatively, by scanning your teeth three-dimensionally using special software, advanced computer-assisted 3D technology will transform the impressions of your mouth into a series of clear, removable, custom-made retainers.

After a thorough analysis of the final position, and movement and adjustments to be made, the treatment is approved. Depending upon the approved plan, you will start receiving about 12 to 48 different aligners in total.

On the second visit, you will receive your aligners to wear one pair for approximately 2 weeks, taking them out only to eat, drink, brush and floss. For check-ups, you will need to visit us once a month or every 2 months; we will give you new retainers at each appointment.

To care for your nightguard you should: 

  • Rinse

    your mouthguard with cold water or mouthwash before and after each use or clean it with mild soap and a toothbrush.

  • Place

    the mouthguard in a firm, perforated container for storage or transport. This allows air circulation and helps prevent damage. If the mouthguard is acrylic, store it in fresh, clean water.

  • Protect

    the nightguard from high temperatures – such as hot water, hot surfaces, or direct sunlight – to prevent warping.

  • Check

    the mouthguard for general wear from time to time. If you find holes or tears or if it loosens or causes discomfort, it should be replaced.

·  Bring the mouthguard to each periodic visit to the dentist for examination.
