When it comes to protecting your teeth, prevention is always better than treatment. Your smile is one of your most valuable assets, and protecting it should be a top priority whether you’re on the field or sleeping at night. With proper protection, you can avoid painful injuries and costly dental repairs.
Our general dentistry practice offers two main types of protective devices:
- Athletic Mouthguards – These custom-fitted guards are essential for anyone participating in sports or high-impact activities. They’re designed to absorb shock and protect against tooth damage. Unlike store-bought options, our guards are precisely crafted for your mouth. They offer superior comfort and protection while allowing clear speech and easy breathing.
- Night Guards for Teeth Grinding – Do you wake up with a sore jaw or headaches? Without realizing it, you may be grinding your teeth while you sleep. This can wear down your tooth enamel and put excessive pressure on your jaw muscles. Our custom night guards fit precisely between your upper and lower teeth. They protect against grinding damage, relieve muscle strain, and help your jaw joints stay healthy.
While we’re equipped to handle dental emergencies and provide restorative treatments when needed, our team of dental professionals prefer to provide mouthguards and prevent problems before they start.
