What is an Occlusal Splint?
Occlusal splints, also known as ‘Night Guards’, are removable dental appliances that are customised to fit your teeth either on the upper or lower arch, to treat night grinding (bruxism). Occlusal splints are generally recommended for people who grind their teeth and patients with extensive dental treatment such as crowns, veneer and dental implants.
Townsville Dentist
How does it work?
An occlusal splint is a slim, hard acrylic or polycarbonate guard that is designed to be worn at night and/or during high stress work.
The splint does not stop you from grinding or clenching, but it does guide the lower jaw to a neutral position that relieves some pressure on the joint and protects teeth from destructive forces.

Will grinding my teeth ruin my teeth?
Bruxism is a condition where a person grinds their teeth and clenches their jaw muscles during sleep. This is an involuntary habit. The reason for this condition is unknown, but stress can play a major role. Bruxism is a very common occurrence and often individuals are unaware of their habit.
Townsville Dentist
What is Bruxism?
Bruxism causes upper and lower teeth to wear against each other and leads to gradual shortening and chipping of the biting surfaces of teeth. This is called attrition and can cause sensitivity. Bruxism can also cause damage to gums, jaw bones, soreness of jaw muscles, TMJ problems, headaches and disturbed sleep.

Reviews from our patients in Townsville
We're excited to bring your smile goals to life!
Amazing experience, was never worried about going to the dentist. Always had a good laugh and everyone was so nice and 100% of the time. But most importantly, my smile is totally unrecognisable after treatment, never been more confident with my teeth and can’t stop smiling now.
Patient of Dental Precinct
Dr Vik and the Receptionists are amazing. Dr Vik is a top class dentist and orthodontist who listened to my concerns and gave me realistic expectations on outcomes for my complex dental issues. He fixed what bothered me the most.
Patient of Dental Precinct
In the last four years of going to this dentistry, Dr. Vik and his team have always made sure my experience was as relaxing as it could be, leaving every appointment reassured and happy. The work they’ve done for me has changed my life and I have never loved my smile more than I do now.

Patient of Dental Precinct
Dr Vik and his team are the best in the business. Extremely knowledgeable and welcoming. As someone who has dreaded going back to the dentist for 4+ years. They have welcomed me with open arms and completed a very thorough yet gentle approach to my service. Which
