Sports Mouth Guards
Sports mouth guards are essential protective gear for all those participating in contact sports or activities that may lead to dental injuries, such as cricket, rugby, hockey and kickboxing.
By absorbing and dispersing the impact forces, these mouth guards minimise the risk of tooth fractures, jaw fractures, and soft tissue injuries. Investing in a high-quality dental sports mouth guard can significantly reduce the chances of dental emergencies, ensuring athletes can focus on their game with confidence and peace of mind.
Mouth guards are made by taking impressions or 3D scans of the teeth. These models are used to create precisely fitting mouth guards which are designed to fit each individual's teeth snugly, offering maximum comfort without compromising protection.
For younger children, mouth guards may need to be replaced more regularly as their teeth and jaws continue to grow and change. Ideally, mouth guards should be replaced after each season, as they can wear, becoming less effective in protecting the teeth.
Taking care of your mouth guard will help it to last as long as possible. Mouth guards should be kept in their protective case and not thrown into the bottom of a gym bag or even your football boots! They should be cleaned regularly with a soft toothbrush and antibacterial soap to make sure they stay nice and clean.
