Contact UsWhat Are NTI Dental Appliances?
Clenching your teeth while you sleep, is an everyday problem that affects many individuals. While the most visible sign of damage is the deterioration of the surface of the teeth, clenching may also cause headaches, tooth pain, inflammation, as well as discomfort in your neck and jaw. To guard your mouth against these effects of clenching, we can provide a custom nociceptive trigeminal inhibition (NTI) dental appliance that defends your mouth while you rest. Much like custom night guards, an NTI is made with top-quality materials that fit comfortably and improve the quality of your sleep by eliminating jaw clenching. For more information about NTI dental appliances at Elegant Smiles, set up a consultation at our Las Vegas, NV facility.
How Does the NTI Work?
Jaw clenching at night is typically caused by stress but could also be brought on by misaligned teeth, allergies, a sleep disorder, or temporomandibular joint disorder (called TMD). When our team makes your clenching diagnosis, they also will also try to find out the cause so that your NTI dental appliance can be coupled with another treatment for more effective results. After our team makes your diagnosis, we will scan for impressions to help create your custom NTI dental appliance. Next, we will send your specifications to the dental laboratory where your appliance will be created from the best materials. After it is finished and sent back to our office, you will come in to have it fitted. We may make minor adjustments so your dental appliance correctly. You also will be given specific instructions on how to properly care for your NTI dental appliance so it lasts a long time. The custom appliance should relieve or eliminate the discomfort and dental complications caused by clenching, but if it does not, please contact our office so we can address additional issues or try other options.
Elegant Smiles Reviews
Amazing office, very communicative, office staff is great and definitely show they care and help anyway they can. I was recommended here by a friend and I am happy I made the switch. I have had appointments with both Dr. Huynh and Dr. Phan, both are great at their work.
I wish I could give more stars to be honest. I came to Elegant Smiles following a terrible experience at a previous dental office, that left me with an infection, a lot of pain, and needing significant work. Elegant Smiles was recommended by a co-worker who raved about them. I was in quite a bit of pain and the receptionist was kind and worked to get me in immediately. At my first examination Dr. Phan made me feel comfortable and confident in his ability to fix the issue right away. The facility is state of the art. No walking from one x-ray machine and back. You sit in a massage chair and the x-ray machine comes to you. All the work happens, and you don't leave the chair once. Following that exam, I was immediately offered a teeth cleaning. I don't know the Dental Hygienists name, but she was excellent! She utilized a state-of-the-art water powered tool that doesn't hurt and require a lot of the normal tooth scraping with tools. She also made me laugh quite a bit and my teeth felt wonderful when I left.On my recent appointment yesterday the dental assistant Ricky greeted me at my chair warmly and gave me detailed information on all the work being completed that day. I had a large filling and a temp crown placement happening. The numbing was easy, the work was comfortable, and the sanitizing procedures they use in prepping my tooth for the crown made me feel confident. They show you scans of your teeth as they occur, and you never once feel confused as to what is happening in your mouth. My temp fits like a charm and I have no pain or sensitivity at all. Dr. Phan and Ricky worked so well together start to finish. I never thought getting a crown would be so easy. The best decision I made was switching to this office. I will never go anywhere else.

I have been seeing Dr. Huynh for a few years now. she is the best dentist I have seen in my life. I am looking forward to see her for many more years to come. Yesterday there was this gentleman name Ricky, he took care of my teeth at the end of my appointment, he did an amazing job on me. he really took his time to take care of my teeth, I am very happy that I found them. 🙏🙏🙏❤️
Everytime I visit this dental office I have a great experience. During the last visit I had more work done and everyone was very attentive and professional! Special thanks to the new team member Ricky who went above and beyond to fully explain each procedure and made me feel confident and excited about my treatment!! Thank you all!!
