Preserve Your Oral Structures
Maintaining good oral health is more than just brushing and flossing. For those of us who play sports, who clench or grind our teeth or who snore, dental appliances can help preserve and protect our oral structures, and the health of our whole bodies.
Dental appliances offered at Aura Clinique Dentaire Elite – such as mouth guards and sleep apnea appliances – are used to help protect the health of your oral cavity.
Snoring & Sleep Apnea Appliances
Sleep disorders can disrupt your sleep and negatively impact your overall health and wellbeing.
For patients who snore, their relaxed throat tissues cause the airway to restrict, creating the sound of snoring as oxygen is forced past. For patients with sleep apnea, their throat tissues over-relax and obstruct the airway, forcing the brain to wake them up to breathe.
At Aura Clinique Dentaire Elite, we provide custom-fitted oral appliances to move the lower jaw and tongue muscles to open the airway. This helps improve your flow of breath and prevents you from waking up throughout the night.
Custom-Fitted Sports Guards
We offer custom-made mouth guards that fit over your teeth to protect them from damage. A mould of your teeth will be made so the mouth guard material can be created around it. This should leave you with a mouth guard that fits your teeth perfectly.
If you get hit in the mouth during a sport, a mouth guard provides a barrier between your teeth and the soft tissue of your mouth to protect your smile.
Mouth guards can help prevent trauma to your teeth, including chipped teeth, tooth fractures, and missing teeth. They can also help prevent concussions if you suffer a severe blow to the head.
