Sports Mouthguards in Hawthorn East
If you’re athletic or have a child involved in contact sports, you understand the dangers and seriousness of mouth injuries. Thankfully, we offer custom-fit mouthguards to help keep your smile safe during activities. The best part? Getting your mouthguard has never been easier.
Why Do I Need a Custom Mouthguard?
Mouthguards protect your teeth from being cracked, knocked out, and chipped. They can also help prevent cuts, lacerations, and jaw injuries. While you may have seen protective mouthguards advertised in supermarkets or specialty stores, wearers of these generic appliances are twice as likely to suffer a concussion as those who wear custom-built ones.
Plus, over-the-counter mouthguards come in sizes that don’t fit well for everyone and cannot be fully customised. They may be bulkier and less comfortable, causing irritation and the possibility of dislodging during activity.
Moreover, coverage is not complete, and the wearer is not fully protected from impact forces, potentially increasing the risk of dental injuries. Inferior materials also mean they won’t last as long as custom dental appliances.
What Mouthguards From Our Dentist Offer
Better fit
Custom-made to fit precisely to your teeth and mouth, these appliances are personalised from a 3D scan, ensuring they fit perfectly and cover all necessary areas.
Superior protection
This optimal fit offers superior protection for teeth, gums, and jaw due to the high-quality materials used. The precise fit and materials also reduce the risk of dental injuries by better absorbing and distributing impact forces.
Greater comfort
Enhanced comfort is another benefit, as these mouthguards are more comfortable to wear, allowing for easier breathing and speaking. They are typically less bulky than over-the-counter options, making them more comfortable for prolonged use.
Durability
Additionally, the appliances are long-lasting, made from durable materials that can withstand repeated impacts, and often crafted from higher-quality materials tailored to the specific needs of the athlete.
Customisable options
Our custom mouthguards are fully customisable. You can choose from many colours and even personalise them with branding. Using a 3D scan ensures there are no messy moulds or discomfort during the fitting process.
