What Is a Mouthguard?

A mouthguard is a protective appliance worn over the teeth to reduce the risk of damage. It can be used for sport to help protect against impact injuries, or as a night guard to help protect teeth from grinding and clenching while you sleep.

A well fitted mouthguard should feel secure, comfortable, and easy to wear consistently. That is why many patients choose a custom made mouthguard, designed to match their teeth and bite.

Why a Mouthguard Matters?

Dental injuries can happen quickly, and repairs can be time consuming and expensive. A mouthguard reduces the risk of chipped or broken teeth and soft tissue injuries during sport. For patients who clench or grind, a night guard can help protect teeth from wear and reduce pressure that contributes to jaw tension.

If you have crowns, veneers, or implant restorations, protection becomes even more important, because repairs can be more involved than a simple filling.

Which Mouthguard Do You Need?

We commonly provide two types, depending on your goals:

Sports Mouthguards

Designed for impact protection. A good sports mouthguard should stay in place, allow breathing, and feel comfortable enough to keep in during play.

Night Guards for Grinding and Clenching

Designed to protect teeth from wear and reduce overload on your bite. Many patients consider a night guard if they notice:

Morning jaw tightness or headaches
Tooth sensitivity without obvious decay
Chipped edges or worn teeth
Reports of grinding from a partner

We’ll recommend the most suitable option based on your teeth, bite and lifestyle.

Why Custom Often Works Better Than Store Bought?

Store bought mouthguards often feel bulky, don’t stay in place well, and can be uncomfortable enough that people stop wearing them. A custom mouthguard is made to your teeth, which usually means it feels more secure, more comfortable, and more practical to use consistently.

The best mouthguard is the one you’ll actually wear, and fit makes that easier.

FAQs

Surely, you can find the best answers to common concerns about our clinic and the treatments available.

Do I really need a mouthguard for sport?

If there’s a risk of impact, a mouthguard can significantly reduce the chance of dental injury, especially for contact sport.

Can a mouthguard help with teeth grinding?

Yes. A night guard can help protect teeth from wear and reduce pressure on the jaw for many patients.

How long does a mouthguard last?

It depends on wear and use. Bring it to check ups so we can assess fit and condition and advise if it needs replacing.

Will it feel bulky?

Custom mouthguards are designed to fit closely, which usually makes them more comfortable than store bought options.

Can children get mouthguards?

Yes. Kids and teens who play sport can benefit. As teeth change with growth, replacements may be needed over time.
