A night guard, or bruxism appliance, is a transparent, thin device you wear over the biting surface of your teeth. It is a mouthpiece that protects and covers your teeth to prevent and reduce injury from clenching your jaw and helps lighten the tension which gives cushion to the muscles of the jaw.
- Less tension and less jaw pain
- Prevents headaches, lessen the discomfort of TMJ
(temporomandibular disorders) - Prevents tooth damage from grinding and clenching of the teeth which leads to chipped teeth, damaged fillings, and excessive wear of the teeth and the enamel.
This is an Oral customized removable appliance created for a non-invasive treatment of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. It is made for patients to help treat snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. It is designed to both advance the mandible and open the bite to allow ample airflow during sleep.
The purpose of the snore guard is to move your jaw forward so that your upper airway is less restricted.
The appliance is equipped with nine different lengths of elastic straps to gradually and incrementally advance the mandible, and patients can easily choose the length that suits their needs. Consult with Dr Vert to what length that will best suit your needs.
Consult with your primary care physician if you are suffering from Sleep Apnea. Your primary care physician may require you to do a sleep study. It is recommended that patients consult with their primary physician to determine if the Dental Snore Guard Appliance is right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept dental insurance?
Yes, we accept many dental insurance plans. Our team can help you understand your benefits and estimate your out of pocket costs before treatment.
How do I know which treatment option is right for me?
We begin with a detailed exam and take time to understand your concerns, goals, and oral health needs. Then we explain your options clearly so you can feel confident about your care.
Can I get a same day appointment?
We do our best to accommodate same day appointments whenever possible, especially for urgent dental concerns. Please call our Eureka or McKinleyville office to check availability.
What should I expect during my first visit?
Your first visit usually includes a comprehensive exam, digital X rays if needed, and a conversation about your dental history and goals. We will make sure you feel informed and comfortable throughout.
Is root canal therapy painful?
Root canal therapy is designed to relieve pain, not cause it. With modern techniques and local anesthesia, most patients find the procedure much more comfortable than expected.
When would I need a dental crown?
A dental crown may be recommended when a tooth is weakened, cracked, heavily filled, or restored after a root canal. It helps protect the tooth while restoring its strength and appearance.
Are dental implants a good option for replacing missing teeth?
Dental implants are a reliable, long term option for replacing missing teeth. We will evaluate your oral health, bone support, and goals to see if implants are the right fit for you.
