Dental Mouthguards

Custom mouth guards are a great way to protect your teeth and gums when playing sport.

Sports mouthguards act to spread the impact of any knock or hit to the face, mouth and jaw area.

It is recommended that a mouthguard be worn when playing any contact sport.

This includes, for example any tackle or scrum sports such as Rugby League, and high impact sports such as soccer, rugby league, rugby union, AFL kick boxing and boxing, etc.

But even in more gentile sports a knock to the mouth area can occur from a random elbow or miscalculated hand.

So, it is worth considering a mouthguard to protect your teeth and gums in any sport arena.

We offer a variety of colours to reflect your team spirit!

Various retail mouthguard options.

You can purchase a mouthguard that you boil and bite to fit it to your teeth. However, these are often thick, bulky, and ill fitting.

Benefits of a custom mouthguard prepared by your dentist

The most obvious benefits of a custom mouthguard made by your dentist is that it fits perfectly.

A custom mouthguard is the safest choice because;

It is thinner than a standard store-purchased mouthguard,
It fits more snuggly to your teeth, providing the maximum protection with a close layer around the teeth and gums.
The thinner material of a custom mouthguard allows the wearer to breathe more easily because the mouthguard fits more closely to the teeth and stays tightly in place throughout any exercise and high impact sports contact.
Provides a barrier layer so teeth are less likely to bite the inner cheek or puncture through the lips.
Reduces the impact of jaw fracture, teeth being chipped, broken and knocked out.

Custom mouth guards aren’t just for kids. Adults can also experience serious sports injuries.
