Athletic Mouthguards: Protect Your Smile, Stay in the Game

Are you an athlete or actively participate in sports and recreational activities? At iSmile Dentistry, we understand the importance of keeping you smiling and in the game. That’s why our dental professionals strongly recommend fitted sports mouthguards for individuals involved in contact sports. Our custom-fitted mouthguards provide optimal comfort and effectiveness while safeguarding your teeth, mouth, jaw, and neck from potential injuries. With offices in Utah and Arizona, we are here to help you learn more about mouthguards and schedule your appointment.

The Importance of Sports Mouthguards

At iSmile, your oral health and overall well-being are our top priorities. To ensure your smile remains healthy and free from discomfort, we offer a range of mouthguards at our dental office. One of our recommended options is the athletic mouthguard, also known as a sports guard. Designed to fit over your teeth, this oral appliance provides essential protection during sports and athletic activities. While high-contact sports like wrestling, football, hockey, and rugby necessitate the use of mouthguards, athletes of all kinds can benefit from wearing them. Whether you’re into soccer, basketball, baseball, football, or combat sports, a mouthguard is an excellent preventive measure for keeping your smile safe.

Custom-Made for Optimal Protection

While there are various types of athletic mouthguards available, the custom-made mouthguard stands out as the most effective in ensuring your smile’s protection. At iSmile, we specialize in creating professional custom mouthguards that perfectly fit your unique smile. Our custom sports guards offer several advantages, including:

  • Precise Fit: Our custom mouthguards are tailor-made to fit your teeth snugly, providing the highest level of comfort and protection.
  • Prevention of Dental Injuries: By wearing a mouthguard, you significantly reduce the risk of dental injuries such as knocked-out or chipped teeth.
  • Protection for Soft Tissues: In addition to shielding your teeth, a mouthguard helps safeguard the mouth’s soft tissues, including the tongue, lips, cheeks, and gums.

Yes, you can buy an inexpensive sports mouthguard from the store. Some store-bought mouthguards can even be molded to the shape of your mouth.
