Nightguards for Bruxism

Do you struggle with facial pain, morning headaches, or teeth that feel and look worn-down? These are common signs of bruxism, also known as teeth grinding. Many patients struggle with this condition because it occurs while they’re asleep, but that doesn’t mean they have to be stuck with it. Dr. James Geer provide patients with a customized nightguard to be worn comfortably during sleep. By having a barrier that protects teeth and minimizes the effects of grinding, patients can rest easy.

Sportsguards

Helmets and knee pads may be common when it comes to playing sports – but what about the mouthguard? Studies show that nearly 40% of sports injuries involve the face, while up to 39% of all dental injuries are related to athletic activity. The last thing you or your child needs to be worrying about during your favorite activity is whether your smile may be damaged as a result. That’s why are available at the store, a custom-made appliance provides the most ideal fit. Sportsguards have even been shown to reduce the severity of concussions in some cases! 

Oral Cancer Screenings

Oral cancer may not be as well-known as cavities or gum disease, but that doesn’t mean its effects aren’t staggering. Nearly half of patients diagnosed with oral cancer this year will go on to live no more than five years. The bright side is that successful treatment is possible with early diagnosis. That’s why Dr. James Geer strongly recommend making an oral cancer screening with OralID at our office a part of your regular appointments. OralID’s fluorescence technology utilizes a blue light to easily distinguish between healthy and potentially cancerous cells, allowing us to help patients pursue a concrete diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible.
