Night Guards & Sports Guards in St. Albert, AB

Overview

Protect Your Smile,
Day and Night.

At Riverside Landing Dental in St. Albert, custom mouthguards are one of the most effective and affordable ways to protect your teeth from damage — whether you grind at night or play contact sports. Over-the-counter guards from the pharmacy often don't fit properly, making them uncomfortable and less effective. A custom-made guard fabricated from a precise impression of your teeth ensures a comfortable, secure fit that actually works. We direct-bill most major insurance carriers, including Manulife, Sun Life, and Alberta Blue Cross.

Night guards (occlusal splints) relieve the pressure from teeth grinding and clenching (bruxism), protecting your enamel and reducing jaw pain, headaches, and TMJ symptoms. Sports guards cushion impact to protect against chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth during athletic activity. Both guards are easy to maintain and built to last.

Signs You May Need a Night Guard

  • Waking up with jaw pain or headaches
  • Teeth that appear worn down or flattened
  • Increased tooth sensitivity
  • Partner reports you grinding your teeth at night
  • Jaw clicking or soreness
  • Frequent tension headaches at the temples

How It Works

Getting Your Custom Guard.

Custom mouthguards are made to fit your mouth precisely — not the average person's. Here's the straightforward process.

  • 01

    Impressions Taken

    Your dentist takes precise impressions of your upper and lower teeth. This takes just a few minutes and is completely comfortable.

  • 02

    Lab Fabrication

    Your impressions are sent to a dental laboratory where technicians craft your custom guard from durable, high-quality materials.

  • 03

    Fitting & Adjustment

    When your guard is ready, you come in for a brief fitting appointment. We check the fit, make any adjustments, and show you how to wear and care for it.

  • 04

    Ongoing Care

    Rinse your guard after each use, brush it gently with a toothbrush, soak it weekly, and store it in the ventilated case provided.
