Acrylic bite plates are custom-made based on an optical impression of your teeth. They cover the chewing surface of your teeth to prevent premature wear. You can wear them during the day or at night.<\/p>\n<p>Some patients who grind their teeth also benefit from relaxation exercises, physical therapy or, in more severe cases, botox injections in the masseter muscles. If your teeth are very worn down, rest assured that we can fully rehabilitate your smile with onlays and veneers.<\/p>\n<p>Do you grind your teeth?
