Sports Mouthguards Can Protect Your Smile


If you're an athlete or have a child who plays sports, you know how important it is to protect your teeth and gums during high-impact activities. Thankfully, a professional sports mouthguard can help you do just that.

How do sports mouthguards work and what are their benefits?

A high-quality sports mouthguard is a custom-made, thermoplastic appliance that comfortably and snuggly covers a patient’s teeth and gums.

Benefits of professional sports mouthguards include:

  • Protection from concussion and other head injuries
  • Reduced risk of tooth loss
  • Reduced risk of jaw fractures
  • Reduced risk of cuts and bruises to the lips, cheeks, and tongue.

How are professional sports mouthguards made and how do they compare to store-bought versions?

After an impression of your mouth is taken with putty-like material that hardens and provides our lab professionals with an exact replica of your teeth and gums, the model is used to create your comfortable, custom-fitted sports mouthguard.

Unlike “boil and bite” over-the-counter versions, professional mouthguards are made to fit your teeth and gums perfectly, to withstand significant sports-related impact, and they reduce the likelihood that you’ll experience common dental injuries like tooth chips, cracks, fractures, and even concussions.
