Custom-made sports mouthguards

Adults and kids who take part in contact sports at any level need a sports mouthguard, which plays a crucial role in preventing dental injuries.

Dental trauma is the most common type of facial injury in sports. By providing a cushion if you get a blow to the mouth, a custom-made sports mouthguard minimises the risk of dental emergencies such as:

  • Broken teeth
  • Tooth root damage
  • Damage to dental work such as crowns or bridges

Mouthguards not only shield your teeth but also protect other areas of your face and reduce the risk of concussion.

They provide a safeguard against the risk of:

  • Cuts to the tongue, lips, or cheek lining
  • Broken jaw
  • Loss of consciousness

When you need a sports mouthguard

When you need a sports mouthguard

Many sports run the risk of dental trauma and other facial injuries.

The Australian Dental Association (ADA) says a mouthguard is essential in any sport where collision or contact is likely, including training as well as games.

Sports where mouthguards are particularly important include:

  • Australian football
  • Rugby
  • Soccer
  • Cricket
  • Volleyball
  • Basketball
  • Netball
  • Baseball
  • Hockey
  • Boxing
  • Karate

Why get your mouthguard from a dentist?

The key advantage of getting your mouthguard from a dentist is that it will be custom made.

Customised sports mouthguards provide a superior alternative to mass-produced mouthguards available from pharmacies and sports department stores.

 

Benefits of custom-made sports mouthguards

Custom-fitted mouthguards are recommended by the Australian Dental Association and made by dental professionals from an impression of your teeth.

They’re more expensive than other types of mouthguards but are more comfortable and provide the most effective safeguard – the better a mouthguard fits, the better protection your teeth get.

Besides a secure and comfortable fit, other benefits of a customised mouthguard include:

  • No bad taste or odour
  • No interference with breathing or speech
  • Damage resistance
  • Ease of cleaning

Are custom mouthguards worth the extra cost?

Are custom mouthguards worth the extra cost?

Investing in a professional-standard customised sports mouthguard can save you money in the long run.

For example, the cost of treatment for a fractured tooth is much higher than that of a custom mouthguard.

Launceston Dental provides adults and children with value-for-money clear or coloured sports mouthguards.

These mouthguards are made from quality materials that are strong and durable and are customised for a precise, comfortable fit.
