Custom Night Guards in Wilmington, DE

Relieve Jaw Pain & Teeth Grinding with TMJ/TMD Treatment & Custom Night Guards

If you wake up with jaw pain, headaches, or notice teeth grinding at night, you may be dealing with TMJ/TMD. Our custom treatment solutions, including night guards, can help you sleep better and feel better—without invasive procedures.

What Is TMJ/TMD Treatment?

Targeting the Root of Jaw Pain, Clenching & Grinding

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your lower jaw to your skull. When this joint becomes strained or misaligned, it can lead to temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD).

Common symptoms include:

  • Jaw pain or stiffness
  • Clicking, popping, or locking in the jaw
  • Frequent headaches or neck pain
  • Pain while chewing or talking
  • Teeth grinding (bruxism) or clenching, especially at night

We offer custom, non-invasive treatments to help reduce discomfort, prevent damage, and protect your smile—starting with personalized night guards.
