It is normal to worry about your oral health if you have a habit of grinding your teeth. It is also normal for a parent to feel nervous about their child being injured while playing sports. Luckily, the solution to both problems is a custom mouthguard.
The American Dental Association recommends that athletes wear custom mouthguards for sports to avoid severe oral injuries and trauma. Mouthguards are removable dental accessories that protect the teeth and gums from this trauma. If you engage in recreational sports, it is also important to wear a mouthguard as they provide increased tooth protection and are easy to use.
Care and maintenance of mouthguards is a relatively simple process and does not require a lot of time. The basic rule is to keep it clean! Rinse you mouthguard or clean it with a mild toothpaste after each use and rinse it thoroughly before putting it back in your mouth. Store your mouthguard in a ventilated container to prevent damage or odors. If the mouthguard is made in acrylic, it needs to be kept fully immersed in water to maintain its shape and properties.
With the right mouthguard, you will feel confident and protected. If you are planning to get a mouthguard, contact our friendly staff today
