Sports guards help to protect your teeth while you're playing close contact sports. They can be made for children as well as adults. The purpose of these guards is to prevent your teeth from being severely damaged if you get hit in the face or mouth by another player. Sports guards are comfortable and custom made to fit each player.

Why would you need Sports Guards?

You may require a sports guard because you play close contact sports or have a child who is playing these types of sports. While no one wants to think about themselves or their child getting hit in the face or mouth by another player, it can happen and it is better to be protected than to face the consequences. Sports guards are comfortable to wear because they're custom fit to your own unique mouth shape. They're durable and long-lasting so that you can benefit from having them for a long time.

What makes you a candidate for Sports Guards?

You're a candidate for a sports guard if you play sports and want to protect your teeth. The guard works by creating a cushion in front of the teeth as well as between the teeth. This prevents trauma from occurring if you get hit in the mouth or if you accidentally grind your teeth during game play. To determine if a sports guard is right for you, you'll need to have a consultation with Dr. Terry Watson.
