Engaging in competitive or recreational sports without a mouthguard significantly increases the risk of injury to your teeth and soft tissues. The American Dental Association recommends using mouthguards for over 25 different sports. While over-the-counter ‘boil-and-bite’ mouthguards are inexpensive, they often don’t provide a secure fit, reducing their effectiveness. Custom-made mouthguards offer superior protection and comfort.
At Desert Pearl Dentistry, we begin by taking an impression of your teeth to create a custom mouthguard made from strong, durable resin. The result is a snug, comfortable fit that allows you to speak normally while providing the protection you need during your sporting activities. With proper care, your custom mouthguard will last for multiple seasons.
