What is a custom-made grit bit?
A custom-made grinding denture is a mouth guard designed specifically to protect teeth from wear and tear caused by teeth grinding, also known as bruxism. These mouthguards are custom-made by your dentist and provide optimal protection and comfort. By wearing a mouth guard, you can not only prevent damage to your teeth, but also relieve jaw tension, which helps reduce headaches and jaw pain.
Why do people in Delft choose a grit bit?
- Effective protection: Many people in Delft choose a denture because it helps them protect their teeth from wear and other dental problems.
- Personal approach:Delft Dental Practice offers a personal approach, where patients have a single point of contact and receive clear information about treatment.
What is the treatment process like at the dentist?
- Initial consultation: At your first appointment, the dentist reviews your teeth and discusses your symptoms. You will also be asked about your medical history and any complaints you are experiencing.
- Tailoring: After the diagnosis, an impression of your teeth is taken. This impression forms the basis for the grinding denture so that it fits your teeth perfectly.
- Aftercare: After the dentist fabricates the denture, he or she schedules a follow-up appointment to check that the bit fits properly and is effective.
What are the costs and how are they discussed?

During your initial consultation, we will discuss all costs, including any insurance. You can count on a clear overview of what the treatment entails.
Risks and how to mitigate them
Although dentures are generally safe, there are some potential risks. These can include unwanted side effects, such as an uncomfortable feeling or an upset bite. Fortunately, our experienced dentists and dental hygienists are trained to make precise adjustments to minimize these risks. If you experience side effects, contact our practice for a consultation.
Recovery and sustainability of the result
Usually no long-term recovery is required after wearing a grinding denture. Many patients soon experience relief from symptoms of teeth grinding. Results may remain noticeable for months to years, depending on your use and care of the grinding denture. Regular maintenance is important to ensure the bit remains in good condition.
