Understanding Mouthguards

Mouthguards are protective devices designed to cover your teeth and gums to prevent and reduce injury. They are essential for protecting your smile during physical activity and even while you sleep. Whether you’re playing sports or grinding your teeth at night, a custom-fitted mouthguard can shield your teeth from damage.

4 Reasons for Mouthguards

1.

Protection During Contact Sports

Mouthguards shield teeth and jaws from impact injuries, reducing the risk of chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth.

2.

Prevent Teeth Grinding

For individuals who grind or clench their teeth during sleep (bruxism), a custom-made mouthguard provides cushioning and protection.

3.

Relief for TMJ Disorder

Customized mouthguards can help alleviate symptoms of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders by stabilizing the jaw joint.

4.

Sleep Apnea Treatment

For individuals with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea, a mouthguard can help keep the airway open by repositioning the lower jaw and tongue during sleep.

Over 200,000 oral injuries are prevented each year in the U.S. by wearing mouthguards.

How Custom Mouthguards Are Made

A custom-fitted mouthguard is made by taking an impression or digital scan of your own unique bite. We then use the replica to create a customized appliance that fits snugly around your teeth, providing the highest level of comfort and protection.

Depending on what your mouthguard is needed for, we can customize the materials and colors to reflect your needs. For example, matching your jersey or team colors if you need an athletic appliance.

Children or teens whose mouths are still developing will usually need to have their mouthguards replaced each season. However, adult patients can typically wear their mouthguard for several years before it needs to be replaced.

Mouthguards FAQs

If you have any questions about mouthguards, we’ve got answers.

How often should I replace my mouthguard?

Mouthguards can wear out or get damaged over time. It's important to replace them every one to two years, or sooner if they show signs of wear or damage.

How to care for mouthguards?

It's extremely important that mouthguards be stored in a cool, dry case when not in use. A protective case will reduce the likelihood of a small child or pet accidentally damaging the appliance when it's not being used. Also, avoid hot temperatures (such as a car) while storing your mouthguard, as it could warp or distort the material.

Can children use mouthguards?

Yes, children can use mouthguards for protection during sports activities. We offer customized mouthguards for children that are designed to fit their smaller mouths.

How much do mouthguards cost?

The price of a sports mouthguard or bruxism splint can vary depending on the type of materials used, the mouthguard design, and if you're using dental insurance.
