Why Wear a Custom Mouthguard?
Sports-related dental injuries are common, yet many players do not wear proper protection. Whether for children, adults, or athletes with braces, a custom-fitted mouthguard provides superior protection compared to store-bought options. A custom mouthguard:
Custom vs. Store-Bought Mouthguards
Boil and bite mouthguards purchased from sports stores or pharmacies are often bulky, ill-fitting, and uncomfortable. They may not stay in place during sports, providing limited protection.
A custom mouthguard, on the other hand:
-
Fits snugly over your teeth for maximum stability
-
Reduces risk of dental trauma during sports
-
Allows better breathing and speaking while playing
-
Can be designed for children’s mouths and for braces and mouthguards
Caring for Your Custom Mouthguard
Proper care helps your custom mouthguard last longer:
-
Rinse with cold water after every use
-
Store in a ventilated protective case away from heat
-
Inspect regularly for wear or damage
-
For children, check for proper fit as teeth grow and change
-
Replace as needed, particularly during growth phases
