Sports mouth guards are devices worn over the teeth to protect them from impacts to the face and head. These protective mouth guards are an essential part of athletes’ protective equipment, especially for those participating in sports involving intense physical contact, falls, or flying equipment.
Mouth guards usually cover the upper teeth and are designed to protect the teeth from fractures, cuts to the lips, and other oral injuries.
Athletic mouth guards are custom-made for each athlete at the dental practice to ensure comfort, prevent irritation or sores, and provide optimal fit and retention.
During the first visit to the Dental Practice, an accurate impression of the teeth is taken.
At the second visit, the mouthguard is fitted, checked to ensure it causes no discomfort, and is then ready for use.
