Dentist Mouthguards for Optimal Protection
Dentist mouthguards are protective appliances designed to protect your teeth, gums, tongue and cheeks from injury, especially during contact sports where the mouth can be at risk of receiving knocks or blows.
At The Dental Family Beaumaris, we are dedicated to providing high-quality dental care to our patients, and our mouthguards are no exception. We offer a wide range of mouthguards, custom-designed to suit different activities and purposes.
Let Us Help Protect Your Smile with a Custom-Fitted Mouthguard
While standard mouthguards are available over the counter at pharmacies or sports shops, they don’t fit properly and therefore won’t provide effective protection when you need it. To get a mouthguard that fits your mouth accurately, The Dental Family Beaumaris recommends getting one custom-made by our dentists.
We take a scan of your teeth and construct an oral device that is comfortable and designed exclusively for what you need it for. Made from premium-quality materials, your new mouthguard will do a great job of protecting your mouth.
Don’t settle for a one-size-fits-all solution – our friendly dental team can create a personalised mouthguard that fits your mouth perfectly and provides the best possible protection.
How a Sports Mouthguard Works
A sports mouthguard is designed to absorb the force of an impact before it reaches the teeth. It is typically fitted to the upper teeth, which are more at risk of injury due to their position.
During physical activity, the mouthguard redistributes the force of a hit, helping to prevent serious dental injuries such as chips or nerve damage. It can also protect the soft tissues of the mouth, including the lips, gums, tongue, and cheeks, from damage caused by impact.
You may need to use a sports mouthguard if you participate in –
- Contact sports such as football, basketball, hockey, and boxing.
- Non-contact sports with a high risk of falls, such as rock climbing, cycling, or ice skating.
Never allow a dental injury to affect your quality of life!
