Brisbane Dentists sports mouth guard Brisbane

More than 5 million teeth are knocked out in sporting activities each year. While this number is staggering, it is estimated that more than 200,000 oral injuries are prevented every year thanks to the use of sports mouth guards.

Customized to fit your mouth, statistics show that when worn properly, a protective mouthpiece decreases the risk of oral injury by 99 percent.

While many sporting stores sell mouth guards, these versions are not as effective as the mouthpiece offered by your dentist. That's because store-bought mouth guards cannot be altered and require you to keep your mouth clenched for maximum protection. A Brisbane Dentists sports mouth guard however, is made using an exact duplication of your mouth and will stay in place with no effort. This gives you the ability to put your attention where it belongs: on the game!

Using revolutionary technology, Brisbane Dentists Mouth Guards are tougher and stronger than conventional Mouth Guards. You’ll be able to start each game with confidence knowing that no matter how hard you hit, your Brisbane Dentists Mouth Guard is there to protect you.

Mouth Guards shouldn’t get in the way of your game, which is why every {NAME} SPORTS MOUTH GUARD is roughly half the thickness of conventional guards. When you wear a SISU, talking, breathing, and drinking are largely unobstructed, allowing you to keep your focus where it matters: on the next big play.

A Mouth Guard shouldn’t be something you dread having to wear because it’s uncomfortable. In contrast to the large, clunky guards you’ve come to expect, every {NAME} SPORTS MOUTH GUARD is a super-slim 1.6-2.4 mm thin. They’re so small that you’ll honestly forget you’re even wearing a Mouth Guard!

Since the comfort and fit of {NAME} SPORTS MOUTH GUARD Mouth Guards are so superior, you won’t feel the need to constantly remove your guard during game time. This means that fewer germs will be transferred from your dirty, sweaty hands to your {NAME} SPORTS MOUTH GUARD.

Beyond custom-fitting to your mouth, every {NAME} SPORTS MOUTH GUARD Mouth Guard can be remolded to ensure best-fit. Whether your child’s mouth is growing or you’re looking to try a new fit, {NAME} SPORTS MOUTH GUARD Mouth Guards allow you to adjust over time, maintaining utmost comfort and protection.

Sporting accidents are one of the most common causes of dental injury. Every year thousands of people, including children, are treated for dental injuries that could have been avoided or minimised by wearing a protective, custom-fitted mouthguard.

Why do you need a Brisbane Dentists mouthguard?

Damaged or knocked out teeth, broken jaws and cut lips can be sustained when playing sport. Wearing a custom-fitted mouthguard helps to absorb and spread the impact of a blow to your face, which might otherwise result in an injury to your mouth or jaw.

Dental injuries can result in time off school or work to recover, can be painful and disfiguring, and may involve lengthy and complex dental treatment. The cost of an injury to your teeth or jaw far exceeds the cost of a custom-fitted mouthguard.

When should I wear a mouthguard?

Custom-fitted mouthguards should be worn whilst playing and training for any sport where there is a possibility of contact to the face. These sports can include hockey, netball, baseball, basketball and even skateboarding and skiing. Just like having the correct shoes and sporting equipment, all people playing these sports need to wear a custom-fitted mouthguard.

Other Brisbane Dentists mouthguard tips

  • The Australian Dental Association strongly recommends investing in a custom-fitted mouthguard from your dentist.
  • Have your mouthguard checked at your regular dental check-up to make sure it fits correctly and offers maximum protection.
  • Keep your mouthguard clean and store it in a rigid container, away from heat to ensure it maintains its shape.
  • There are many types of mouthguards available in Australia, ranging from cheap, over-the-counter types to professionally custom-fitted mouthguards.
  • The Australian Dental Association (ADA) strongly recommends wearing a custom-fitted mouthguard to ensure maximum protection. These are available from your dentist.
  • Over-the-counter mouthguards do not provide enough protection against injuries to your teeth, mouth or jaw. Dental injuries can be very costly, so it is worthwhile investing in a custom-fitted mouthguard.

Custom-fitted mouthguards

Custom-fitted mouthguards are made by your dentist, who takes an impression and creates a plaster model of your teeth. Custom-fitting allows your dentist to accurately assess your mouth and provide the best fitting mouthguard that is most appropriate for you.

Custom-fitted mouthguards provide a better fit than other varieties, as they are made to suit your individual needs. When made by your dentist, a custom-fitted mouthguard is:

  • Comfortable
  • Well-fitting
  • Allows you to speak clearly
  • Won’t shift or fall out
  • Won’t restrict your breathing

Over-the-counter (boil and bite) mouthguards

Over-the-counter mouthguards are far less effective than those that are custom-fitted. These mouthguards include stock mouthguards that do not require fitting, and mouthguards that can be placed in hot water and then self-fitted by biting into the mould.

How long will my mouthguard last?

It’s important that you have your mouthguard assessed by your dentist at your regular dental check-up to ensure it still fits correctly for maximum protection. You may need a replacement if your new, secondary adult teeth have come through or if your mouthguard has been damaged.

How do I care for my mouthguard?

  • Rinse in cold water after use
  • Store in a rigid plastic container
  • Keep out of direct sunlight - mouthguards will change shape in high temperatures
  • Occasionally rinse your mouthguard in a mouthwash
  • Have your mouthguard assessed by your dentist at your regular dental check-up
  • Replace your mouthguard if it gets damaged
