Waking up with a sore jaw, a dull headache, or a partner nudging you awake because of loud snoring is more common than most people realize. These symptoms often point to something happening while you sleep, whether it is teeth grinding, jaw clenching, or a breathing pattern that keeps interrupting your rest.
At Maison Dental Studio, we treat these issues with custom oral appliances designed to protect your smile and help you sleep more soundly. Dr. Kaleb Murray and Dr. Sam Mullen built our Youngsville practice around patient education, so before we recommend any appliance, we walk you through what is happening in your mouth and why a particular device makes sense for you.
Oral appliances are custom-fitted devices you wear while you sleep. They are made from impressions of your own teeth, so they fit comfortably and stay in place through the night.
A generic mouth guard from a drugstore shelf cannot account for the unique shape of your bite or the specific problem we are trying to solve. We use digital scanning technology to design appliances that address your exact needs, whether that means repositioning your jaw, cushioning your teeth from grinding forces, or holding your airway open.
We design cosmetic treatments around your unique facial features, personality, and goals. Your smile should enhance who you are, not look like it belongs to someone else.
Our doctors completed extensive continuing education in cosmetic procedures, staying current with the latest techniques and materials for exceptional results.

Grinding your teeth at night, also called bruxism, can wear down enamel, crack fillings, and leave your jaw muscles sore each morning. A custom night guard creates a barrier between your upper and lower teeth so grinding forces do not damage your smile.
You may not even realize you grind your teeth while you sleep. Common signs include flattened or chipped teeth, jaw pain or stiffness, headaches upon waking, and a partner mentioning that they hear grinding sounds at night. If any of these sound familiar, we can take a look during your next visit and talk through whether a night guard makes sense.
Youngsville families stay active, and we want your smile to keep up. A custom sport guard protects your teeth, lips, and jaw during contact sports and other physical activities. Unlike boil-and-bite versions from a sporting goods store, a custom sport guard is molded to your teeth, so it stays secure and does not interfere with breathing or speaking during play.
Mandibular advancement devices are a type of oral appliance built for people dealing with snoring or mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. The device gently shifts your lower jaw forward, which helps keep your airway open through the night.
Many people who struggle with a CPAP machine find that a mandibular advancement device is easier to tolerate night after night. A 2025 study in the National Library of Medicine’s research database found that oral appliance therapy produced a significant reduction in breathing interruptions during sleep, with more than half of patients studied showing a meaningful improvement in their symptoms. That does not mean an oral appliance is right for every case, but it does mean it is worth a conversation, especially if you have been told you snore heavily or you wake up feeling exhausted despite a full night in bed.
We work with your physician when needed to confirm a sleep apnea diagnosis before recommending a mandibular advancement device, since accurate diagnosis (through a sleep study) is the first step toward the right treatment.
Getting fitted for an oral appliance starts with a conversation. We will ask about your symptoms, take a look at your teeth and jaw, and may recommend digital images to get a full picture of what is going on. From there, we take precise impressions of your teeth using technology designed for comfort and accuracy.
Once your appliance is ready, we will have you come back in for a fitting to make sure it feels right and functions the way it should. We also schedule a follow-up visit shortly after you start wearing it, so we can make any adjustments needed and confirm you are getting the results you were hoping for.
A little daily maintenance goes a long way toward making your appliance last. Rinse it each morning, brush it gently with a toothbrush, and store it in its case when you are not wearing it. Keeping up with your regular dental exams and cleanings also gives us the chance to check the fit and condition of your appliance over time.
Whether you are dealing with a sore jaw from grinding, want protection during sports, or have been struggling with sleep and snoring, an oral appliance may be the solution you have been looking for. Dr. Murray and Dr. Mullen take the time to explain your options clearly, so you feel confident in the plan we build together.
