Better Protection

The Importance of Custom-Fit Sports Mouthguards

A sports mouthguard acts as a cushion between the upper and lower teeth. It helps absorb impact, protect the teeth from chips and fractures, and reduce injuries to the lips, cheeks, tongue, and jaw.

While a mouthguard cannot guarantee prevention of every injury or concussion, a properly fitted guard can play an important role in reducing trauma during sports and physical activity.

Why Fit Matters

A mouthguard only works well if it stays in place. Custom guards are made from impressions or scans of your teeth, which helps improve comfort, stability, breathing, and protection compared with many over-the-counter options.

Custom vs. Store-Bought

Why Choose a Dentist-Made Mouthguard?

Store-bought mouthguards can be convenient, but they often fit loosely, feel bulky, or make it harder to speak and breathe during play.

What to Expect

How We Make Your Sports Mouthguard

Your mouthguard is made to fit your teeth, sport, and comfort needs.

1. Impression or Scan

We take an accurate record of your teeth so the mouthguard can be shaped specifically for your mouth.

2. Custom Fabrication

The guard is made using durable dental material designed to absorb impact and protect the teeth during sports.

3. Fit Check

We check the fit and make adjustments if needed so the guard feels secure, comfortable, and easy to wear.

What About Teeth Grinding?

Sports mouthguards and nightguards are not the same appliance. A sports guard is designed to absorb sudden impact during activity, while a nightguard is designed to protect teeth from grinding or clenching during sleep.

If you grind or clench your teeth, our dentists can let you know whether a separate nightguard would be more appropriate.

Caring for Your Mouthguard

Rinse your mouthguard after each use, let it air dry, and store it in a ventilated case. Avoid leaving it in hot water, direct sunlight, or a hot car because heat can distort the fit.

Bring it to dental checkups so we can inspect the fit, especially for growing children and teens whose teeth and jaws are still changing.
