Wearing a mouthguard is not only the sure way to protect your lip, tongue, cheek, and teeth from permanent damage, but it has also been suggested that a mouth guard can limit concussions by cushioning the impact between the jaw and skull.
In addition, a custom made mouthguard from your dentist has
many advantages over your typical store bought boil and bite
guard. Using an impression of your mouth we can custom craft
your mouthguard for you and the sport you play, allowing better
breathing, speaking, and fitting. Also, our custom mouthguards
are vacuum-formed, creating an extra shock absorbing air cell
layer. A custom made mouthguard is one of the best investments
that can be made for an athlete's oral health.
