What are my options for custom mouthguards?

Custom Athletic Mouthguards — Athletic mouthguards provide superior protection for athletes by cushioning the teeth and jaw against impact, reducing the risk of broken teeth and injuries. Unlike store-bought options, they are designed for a precise fit, ensuring comfort and ease of breathing during sports activities.

Custom Nightguards — Nightguards for bruxism help prevent teeth grinding and clenching while you sleep, reducing enamel wear, jaw pain, and headaches. Made from durable materials, they provide a comfortable fit and effective protection against long-term dental damage.

How do I know if I need a nightguard?

It’s easy for patients to know if they should invest in an athletic mouthguard, but it’s not always as straightforward when it comes to nightguards. You may need a nightguard if you experience frequent jaw pain, headaches, tooth sensitivity, or worn-down teeth. Grinding or clenching at night can lead to serious dental issues over time, including cracked teeth and TMJ disorders. Our team can assess your symptoms, examine your teeth and gums, and make a personalized recommendation for you.

What is the process for getting a custom mouthguard?

Getting a custom mouthguard begins with a dental consultation, where we will review your preferences and needs. Next, we will take precise impressions of your teeth to ensure a comfortable and secure fit. These impressions are then sent to a dental lab, where your mouthguard is crafted from durable, high-quality material. Once ready, we will check the fit and make any necessary adjustments. With proper care, your custom mouthguard should provide comfortable, long-lasting protection for sports, teeth grinding, or jaw clenching!
