We understand the importance of protecting your teeth, tongue, jaw, cheek lining and gums during athletic activities. Our mouth guards, which fall under our general dentistry services, offer superior protection, comfort and performance for athletes of all levels.
Whether you're involved in high-impact sports like football, baseball, or hockey or activities like soccer and martial arts, a custom mouth guard can be a game changer — they prevent or reduce trauma to the teeth, gingival tissue and more.
Custom Mouth Guard for Sports
One of the main reasons for wearing a mouth guard is to protect your teeth from breaking because a fractured tooth is hard to save. Nobody wants to have a tooth knocked out. A few other reasons to choose a custom mouth guard for sports include:
- Perfect fit: Unlike generic, store-bought mouth guards, our custom-made guards provide a snug and precise fit. This tailored approach allows your mouth guard to securely stay in place — offering reliable protection without slipping or shifting during play.
- Comfort: Comfort is key for athletes who need to focus on their performance. Our dentists mold them to fit your teeth and use flexible plastic for the ultimate comfort.
- Preventive care: Using a custom mouth guard can prevent costly dental injuries and corrective treatments down the line. Investing in proper protection allows you to avoid potential issues and keep your smile intact.
- Convenience: Custom mouth guards for sports are easy to maintain and clean, ensuring a hygienic and comfortable experience. With just a little care, your mouth guard will always be ready for your next match.
Anyone participating in a sport that involves body contact, flying equipment, or falls must wear a mouth guard. Consider this piece of gear as essential as a helmet.
How Should a Mouth Guard Fit?
A mouth guard should fit comfortably against your top teeth without your tongue holding it in. It should also naturally accommodate your bottom teeth and not compress too much of your soft palate.
Protect Your Smile With Smile Crafters
The National Youth Sports Foundation for Safety found that athletes who are not wearing a mouth guard have a 60% higher chance of sustaining tooth damage. Our dentists take a personalized approach to your dental care to create protective equipment.
