Custom mouthguards are for anyone who participates in athletic activities – not just professionals. We recommend using a custom mouthguard to protect your teeth, lips, tongue, and jaw when taking part in high-contact or high-impact sports.
Custom mouthguards are highly recommended by the Australian Dental Association for both children (age 6+) and adults who participate in the following sports:
Custom mouthguards are the safest and most effective choice for sports. They are produced at a dental clinic and made from professional dental-grade, BPA-free materials.
Your dentist creates a mould of your teeth and uses it to make a personalised mouthguard that fits your mouth and teeth perfectly. Because of this, you can rely on a custom mouthguard to stay in place throughout your activity and you’ll feel extremely comfortable wearing it.
Put it on as part of your protective sporting gear before the activity begins, then remove it after you’re done and clean it with soap and water. It’s that simple!
A custom mouthguard offers reliable protection for dental injuries that may occur during high-impact sports such as chipped teeth or full tooth knockouts. Whether it’s an accidental elbow jab in basketball or an unexpected full body collision in soccer, sports mouthguards act as a shield, keeping that winning smile intact!
Beyond just safeguarding teeth, sports mouthguards also provide essential protection for the mouth, head, and jawbone. It absorbs the force of impact during sports activities, which help reduce concussions and prevent jaw fractures, or cuts to the lips, tongue, and gums. It protects braces as well, preventing any damage that may be caused from a forceful impact.
The initial investment to make a custom mouthguard may feel more costly than other types of mouthguards, but they save you hundreds of dollars in the long run. Why? Because wearing a reliable custom mouthguard that protects you from dental injuries means no need for unnecessary dental procedures.
Besides offering protection, wearing a custom-made sports mouthguard can enhance your performance in your sport. By providing a comfortable fit that allows easy breathing and speaking, you can focus entirely on the activity without any distractions.
Because of the way custom mouthguards are made, they can be moulded to any size or shape needed. This is especially beneficial for children because as they grow, their mouth and teeth structure changes accordingly. Wearing a custom mouthguard that is fitted perfectly, will support the structural development of their teeth during these crucial years.
