What Are Night Guards?
Teeth grinding at night, also known as bruxism, is a common problem that affects many people. Even though the most noticeable sign of damage is wear on the enamel of the teeth, nocturnal bruxism can also cause tooth pain, headaches, inflammation, and discomfort in your jaw and neck. To protect your mouth from the effects of teeth grinding, Dr. Klein offers custom night guards that help protect your teeth while you rest. Custom night guards are made with high quality materials that comfortably fit in your mouth and improve your sleep by diminishing teeth grinding and jaw clenching. If you want to learn more about custom night guards at Rise and Shine Dentistry, schedule a consultation at our Rock Hill, SC dental practice.
How Do Night Guards Work?
Once Dr. Klein confirms your diagnosis, he will take impressions and digital oral x-rays to create your custom night guard. Our team will send your specifications to a dental laboratory where your custom night guard will be crafted. When your night guard is returned to our office, you will come in to have it fitted. Dr. Klein may make minor adjustments so that it fits correctly. The Rise and Shine Dentistry team will also give you specific instructions on caring for your night guard so it will last many years.

Rise and Shine Dentistry Reviews
Rise and Shine Dentistry has been a life (and tooth) saver. Doctor Klein was very patient and kind while completing a root canal on one of my teeth. He was extremely helpful by helping me with this emergency on his day off. What an extremely kind Doctor. His outstanding service was exceptional. His staff is incredibly kind and helpful as well. Even during inclement weather from Hurricane Helene, one of the staff came in just to help check the condition of my teeth. I was in pain and they responded so quickly. I am extremely satisfied with this dentist. I wish I could give them bonus stars on this rating. Seriously, if you are ever in need of a dentist, I beg you to go to Rise and Shine Dentistry.
It’s like having a cheering squad. 🤗 This a great place to get your mouth and teeth taken cared of. Love having Winnie the little dog to keep a patient calm. Dr. Kline and staff are great!
Dr. Kline and his staff so kind and caring.
Everyone at Rise and Shine is so nice! My dental hygienist, Brooke, and Dr. Klein were great to work with.
I wish I could give more stars!! Absolutely would recommend- From the time I walked in the door, I was greeted by two beautiful smiling women who made the check in a breeze- My dental hygienist was Brooke, she was outgoing, personable, explained everything to me and kept me pain free during my cleaning! Dr. Klein was very kind, knowledgeable and took his time to go over a treatment plan for me before getting Invisalign. I highly recommend this office!!
