Mouthguards
Mouthguards West Ryde
When playing any contact sports, wearing protective gear is crucial, as contact sports can make you prone to mouth and head injuries.
One of the protective devices you need to wear is a mouthguard. Without wearing a well-fitted and comfortable mouthguard, you can get dental injuries such as:
- Chipped or broken teeth
- Fractured crowns or bridgework
- Root damage to the teeth
- Lip and cheek injuries
- Fractured jaws
- Concussion
At My Local Dentists West Ryde, we provide custom mouthguards, which are more efficient in protecting your smile than store-bought mouthguards.
Why Choose Custom Mouthguards?
Studies show that boil-and-bite or stock mouthguards are less effective compared to professionally made and fitted mouthguards and can actually cause more harm than good.
The Australian Dental Association recommends customised mouthguards for any person who is playing contact sports such as boxing or rugby, in which sustaining injury is always possible.
If you are into basketball, volleyball, softball, soccer, or wrestling, you should visit your West Ryde dentist and consider getting custom-mouthguards. If you are under orthodontic treatment, wearing a mouthguard is even more crucial.
Custom mouthguards are extremely comfortable to wear. They help prevent injuries to teeth, soft tissues, gums, and even concussion injuries. Because the mouthguard is custom-made to fit your teeth, the fabrication will take up to a week and can be made with your preferred colour or clear if you wish it to be less noticeable.
Additional Benefits of Custom Mouthguards
Mouthguards that are provided by your dentist offer many advantages such as:
- Help get rid of your fear of dental injuries
- Feel safe and sound while playing your favourite sports
- Absorb the impact of a blow to the lower jaw
- Reduce the risk of cuts and bruises inside and out of your mouth
