Father’s Day is a time to celebrate the dads, grandpas, and father figures who’ve always had your back. This year, instead of another tool set or golf shirt, why not give a gift that actually helps him sleep better and feel better?
At Heritage Dental Centre in Edmonton, we’re encouraging patients to think about their oral health—not just for themselves, but for the men in their lives too.
What Is Bruxism—and Why Should Dad Care?
Bruxism is the habit of grinding or clenching your teeth, often during sleep. Over time, it can lead to:
- Worn-down or cracked teeth
- Headaches and jaw pain
- TMJ discomfort
- Poor sleep quality
- Gum recession
Many people don’t even realize they grind their teeth until a dentist spots the signs. If your dad wakes up with a sore jaw or complains of morning headaches, it might be time to talk to him about a night guard.
Custom-Fit Guards Make All the Difference
Store-bought guards often don’t fit well and can be uncomfortable. At Heritage Dental, we offer custom bruxism guards that are molded to the shape of the mouth for a more comfortable, effective fit.
These guards:
- Protect enamel and reduce wear
- Ease tension in the jaw
- Improve sleep quality
- Are durable and easy to maintain
It’s a simple, practical way to show you care—and help him feel better every day.
Book a Visit for Dad (Or with Him!)
Whether it’s for a night guard, a cleaning, or just a checkup, we’d love to see Dad this June. A healthy smile never goes out of style.
