Sports Mouthguard

Why Should you Choose a Custom-Made Mouthguard?

While over-the-counter mouthguards are available, they often don’t provide the same level of protection, comfort, or fit as custom-made mouthguards. Here’s why we believe a personalized mouthguard is the best option for your child:

• Cushions Against Strong Impacts: Whether it’s a heavy tackle, an elbow to the face, or an accidental collision with another player, a mouthguard acts as a protective cushion, absorbing and distributing the force of a blow to prevent damage to your child’s teeth, gums, and jaw.
• Prevents Accidental Biting Injuries: Many kids unknowingly bite their lips, tongue, or cheeks during physical activities, which can result in painful cuts and sores. A mouthguard helps prevent these accidental bites, offering added protection to the delicate tissues inside the mouth.
• Comfort and Fit: Unlike standard mouthguards, which are often bulky and uncomfortable, a custom-made mouthguard is designed specifically for your child’s mouth. By taking an impression of your child’s teeth, we create a mouthguard that fits snugly and comfortably, making it easier for them to wear during games and practice without discomfort.
• Durability: Custom mouthguards are made from high-quality materials that are designed to withstand the rigors of sports, providing long-lasting protection that over-the-counter options often can’t match.
• Personalized Style: We understand that kids love to show their team spirit! When creating your child’s custom mouthguard, they can choose the color to match their team’s uniform, making it not only protective but also stylish.

How We Create Your Child’s Mouthguard

The process of getting a custom mouthguard at Design Dentistry is simple and stress-free:

1. Impressions: We start by taking a precise impression of your child’s teeth. This ensures that the mouthguard fits perfectly and provides the best protection possible.
2. Customization: Once we have the impression, we create a mouthguard that fits snugly and comfortably, allowing your child to speak, breathe, and play freely.
3. Pick Your Color: Your child will have the fun opportunity to choose a color for their mouthguard, whether it’s their team’s color or a favorite shade.
4. Fit and Comfort Check: After your custom mouthguard is ready, we ensure it fits well and is comfortable for your child to wear during sports.

Why It’s Worth the Investment

A custom-made mouthguard is an investment in your child’s dental health and overall well-being. The risk of serious dental injuries can be significantly reduced with proper protection, saving you from the time, cost, and stress of treating dental trauma. Whether your child is in the midst of competitive sports or just enjoys casual activities, protecting their teeth is always a smart choice.
