Night Guards for Bruxism and Sports Guards for Athletes — Both Custom-Made at Boca
Custom night guards (for teeth grinding / bruxism): Las Vegas has one of the highest rates of sleep bruxism of any major American city — driven by shift work, casino noise, stress, stimulant use, and irregular sleep cycles. A custom night guard from Boca is fabricated from a precise impression of your teeth in a professional dental lab. It fits exactly over your upper or lower arch, distributing grinding forces away from tooth surfaces and the jaw joint while you sleep. Unlike boil-and-bite guards, a custom guard is comfortable enough that patients actually wear it — and durable enough to last years.
Custom athletic mouthguards (for sports): Las Vegas is home to a thriving youth-sports community, amateur athletes, recreational leagues, martial-arts gyms, and combat sports. A dental injury from a collision can mean a cracked or knocked-out tooth, a lacerated lip, or a fractured jaw. Custom athletic mouthguards from Boca provide a precise fit from dental impressions, superior shock absorption and retention under impact, normal breathing and speech during play, team-color options, and compatibility with braces for orthodontic patients.
