Custom Mouthguards
We know a lot of people avoid wearing mouthguards because they’re uncomfortable. They get in the way of speech and sometimes hamper breathing, but custom mouthguards are different.
Occlusal Night Guards
If you’ve ever woken up with a sore jaw, tooth pain, or a headache, then you know the struggle of sleep bruxism (teeth grinding). Because it happens in your sleep, stopping it can be very difficult, but one way to protect your teeth from the damaging effects of grinding is to wear a custom night guard.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Oral cancer is quickly becoming one of the most prevalent forms of cancer today, but it doesn’t receive much attention compared to breast and lung cancer, and that’s a major part of the problem.
Sonicare Toothbrush
You’re probably familiar with electric toothbrushes — you can buy one with a head that rotates at any drugstore. Sonicare leaves those oscillating brushes behind, using sonic wave technology to vibrate as many as 30,000 cycles per minute to break down plaque, making it easier to brush away.
Waterpik
Here at Scripps Family Dental, we remind all of our patients that great hygiene starts with brushing and flossing daily. Unfortunately, many of our patients forget to floss.
