Your smile is one of your most valuable assets, and if you participate in sports or other physical activities, protecting it should be a priority. At Dynamic Dentistry AZ, we offer high-quality sports mouth guards to help safeguard your teeth, gums and jaw from injuries that can occur during athletic activities. Whether you play a high-contact sport or engage in recreational activities, a properly fitted sports guard can make all the difference in preventing dental trauma.
Why Wear a Sports Mouth Guard?
Sports mouth guards are essential for athletes of all ages. They serve as a protective barrier between your teeth and the forces of impact that can occur during contact sports such as football, hockey, rugby and wrestling. Even in lower-contact sports like cycling, rock climbing or gymnastics, accidental collisions and falls can result in serious dental injuries. Wearing a sports guard significantly reduces the risk of chipped, broken or knocked-out teeth, as well as injuries to the lips, tongue and cheeks.
The Benefits of a Custom-Fit Mouth Guard
While over-the-counter mouth guards are available, a custom-made sports mouth guard provides superior protection and comfort. These guards are designed to fit the exact shape of your teeth, ensuring a secure fit that allows for easier breathing and speaking. Unlike generic options that may feel bulky or loose, a custom mouth guard stays in place during activity, reducing the likelihood of dental injuries. Additionally, a well-fitted mouth guard can help absorb impact forces, reducing the risk of jaw injuries and concussions.
Caring for Your Sports Mouth Guard
To keep your mouth guard effective and hygienic, it is important to clean it regularly. Rinse it with cool water after each use and occasionally clean it with a mild soap or mouth rinse. Store it in a ventilated case to prevent bacteria buildup and avoid exposing it to high temperatures, which can cause warping. Checking your mouth guard for signs of wear and replacing it as needed will help maintain its protective function.
