Mouthguards
As an athlete, you need the best gear possible. We offer top quality athletic mouth guards to protect your teeth whenever you practice or compete.
Mouthguards and Night Guards
Mouthguards are key for athletes in contact sports and physical activities, regardless of age. They soften impacts and can help prevent serious injuries, which could lead to expensive and painful oral health issues. Our mouthguards are customized from lightweight materials, ensuring they are comfortable and effective. They also won’t interfere with your normal breathing or speaking.
Similarly, night guards also provide protection but are typically worn while sleeping to prevent damage from bruxism. Bruxism is a disorder that causes people to unconsciously clench and grind their teeth while sleeping. If left untreated, it can result in tooth fractures, breakages, headaches, and jaw pain.

What are the types of dental mouthguards?
Dental mouthguards come in three main types: stock, boil-and-bite, and custom-fit. Stock guards are ready-to-wear but offer minimal comfort. Boil-and-bite models mold to your teeth after softening in hot water—better fit, better protection. Custom-fit guards from your dentist are the gold standard for top-tier defense and comfort. Whether you’re an athlete, a nighttime teeth grinder, or a snorer, there’s a mouthguard to protect your smile and keep things comfy while you sleep or play!

Why are mouthguards important for athletes?
Mouthguards are essential for athletes—they protect teeth, jaws, and soft tissues from impact during sports. Whether scoring goals or hitting home runs, a properly fitted mouthguard helps prevent fractures, knocked-out teeth, and concussions. They’re essential in contact sports like football, hockey, and basketball. Plus, custom-fit guards offer comfort and better breathability. Think of them as a stylish helmet for your smile—because winning shouldn’t come with a chipped tooth!
