Mouthguard

Mouthguard

Look after your teeth

Wearing a custom-fitted mouthguard can provide you with the support and protection your teeth, lips, and jaw needs during sports. And anyone who plays a contact sport should consider wearing a mouthguard.

Why wear a mouthguard

The benefit of wearing a mouthguard is that it will absorb the shock of a blow to the face. If you do suffer a blow to the face during sports and are not wearing a mouthguard you could suffer:

  • A chipped tooth
  • Cracked tooth
  • Broken teeth
  • Internal damage

In severe cases not wearing a mouthguard might mean suffering concussion or a broken jaw (note: anyone who watches rugby league or rugby union will know a mouthguard cannot outright prevent concussion).

Another benefit of wearing a mouthguard is that by preventing all these injuries you help to maintain the health of your teeth and you save on expensive restorative dental treatments.

Mouthguard from a dentist

By having a custom-fitted mouthguard made by a dentist you should receive a mouthguard which:

  • Is comfortable
  • Allows you to talk
  • Has maximum resistance against dislodgement
  • Shouldn’t restrict breathing
