Spring may bring blooming flowers and warmer days—but for many, it also means itchy eyes, stuffy noses, and restless nights. If you suffer from seasonal allergies, you might have noticed that your sleep feels disrupted—and if you grind or clench your teeth at night (a condition known as bruxism), allergy season could be making things even worse.

The Allergy-Bruxism Connection

When allergies strike, congestion can force you to breathe through your mouth while sleeping. This shift in breathing can lead to dry mouth, jaw tension, and changes in bite alignment—factors that may trigger or intensify nighttime grinding and clenching.

On top of that, allergy-related discomfort often leads to fragmented or poor-quality sleep, leaving you feeling exhausted and tense. For some people, that tension finds its way to the jaw muscles, compounding bruxism symptoms like jaw pain, headaches, and tooth sensitivity.

Better Sleep Starts with Protection

While managing allergy symptoms is key (hello, nasal sprays and air purifiers), protecting your teeth and jaw should also be part of your nightly routine. That’s where the SOVA Night Guard comes in.

Made from a thin, comfortable material that custom fits to your teeth, the SOVA Night Guard provides relief from nighttime grinding without the bulk of traditional guards. It stays secure, even if you’re tossing, turning, or mouth-breathing due to congestion—helping you wake up with less tension and more energy.

So this allergy season, breathe easier, rest better, and protect your smile—with SOVA by your side.
