Dentist Libertyville
Many people who notice chipped or cracked teeth, but who don’t remember when the injury occurred, damaged their teeth while they were sleeping. Grinding or clenching your teeth during the night will cause your teeth to chip, crack and even break. To keep you from seriously damaging your teeth, we recommend a dental appliance called a nightguard, which protects your teeth from grinding and clenching in your sleep. Our team takes great care in making sure you have a proper fit in order to prevent pain in your jaw joint.

Sports Mouth Guards
If your child plays sports or other similar activities, sports mouthguards are a great way to protect their teeth from potential injury. Dr. Sayali believes that mouthguards made from impressions of your mouth not only fit better, but also are more likely to be worn properly.
