If you or your children are involved in contact sports, it is highly recommended that a mouthguard is made to protect the teeth from unwanted injury. A mouthguard is usually made for the top teeth out of a hard rubber material that helps absorb forces that may otherwise damage the teeth.
Whether you or your children participate in contact sports, protecting your teeth should be a top priority. At Miami Village Dental, we offer custom-made sporting mouthguards designed to provide superior protection against dental injuries. These mouthguards are specifically crafted to fit your teeth, offering comfort, durability, and the highest level of protection.
Contact sports like football, rugby, boxing, and hockey carry a high risk of dental injuries, including broken teeth, knocked-out teeth, and injuries to the lips and jaw. A custom-made mouthguard helps absorb the impact forces, significantly reducing the risk of these injuries.
Protection Against Impact: Mouthguards cushion the teeth and jaw against sudden impacts, preventing fractures, dislodgement, and other injuries.
Unlike over-the-counter options, our mouthguards are custom-made to fit your teeth perfectly, ensuring maximum comfort and protection.
A well-fitted mouthguard allows you to breathe and speak easily, so you can focus on your game without discomfort.
Regardless of whether you’re a professional athlete or a weekend warrior, if there’s a chance of contact, a mouthguard is essential.
Precision Fit: Crafted to fit the exact contours of your teeth, providing superior comfort and protection.
Durability: Made from high-quality materials designed to withstand intense impacts.
Optimal Protection: Covers more of the teeth and gums than standard mouthguards, offering better overall protection.
Limited Fit: These generic mouthguards may not fit as snugly, leading to discomfort and less effective protection.
Lower Durability: Often made from lower-quality materials that may wear out more quickly.
Basic Protection: Provides some level of protection, but not as comprehensive as a custom-made mouthguard
At Miami Village Dental, we strongly recommend custom-made mouthguards for the best protection, comfort, and durability.
During your visit, our dentists will assess your dental structure and discuss your sporting needs. We will take impressions of your teeth to ensure a perfect fit for your mouthguard.
The impressions are sent to a specialised dental laboratory where your mouthguard is custom-made. The mouthguard is designed to fit precisely, providing the best protection and comfort.
Once your mouthguard is ready, we’ll have you come in for a fitting. We’ll check the fit and make any necessary adjustments to ensure it’s comfortable and secure.
We’ll provide you with instructions on how to care for your mouthguard to ensure it lasts as long as possible. This includes cleaning tips and advice on when to replace your mouthguard.
Our experienced dentists ensure that your mouthguard is tailored to your exact specifications for maximum protection and comfort.
We use top-quality materials that are both durable and safe, providing reliable protection for your teeth during sports.
We understand the importance of getting your mouthguard ready for the season, so we offer quick turnaround times without compromising on quality.
We cater to athletes of all ages, from children in school sports to adults in professional or recreational leagues.
Mouthguards should be replaced every season or sooner if they show signs of wear and tear. For growing children, it’s important to replace the mouthguard as their teeth and jaws develop to ensure a proper fit.
Yes, wearing a mouthguard is especially important if you have braces. We can create a custom mouthguard that accommodates your braces and provides the necessary protection.
To care for your mouthguard, rinse it with cold water or mouthwash after each use, and store it in a ventilated case. Avoid exposing it to high temperatures, as this can cause it to warp. Regularly check for signs of wear and replace it when necessary.
While mouthguards are primarily recommended for contact sports, they can also be beneficial for activities where there’s a risk of falling or impact, such as skateboarding or gymnastics.
If your mouthguard feels uncomfortable, contact us for an adjustment. A properly fitted mouthguard should feel snug but not restrictive, allowing you to breathe and speak easily.
The process typically takes about a week from the initial consultation to receiving your custom-made mouthguard. If you need it sooner, let us know, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your schedule.
Feel free to reach out to us with any questions or feedback—you can contact us through email, phone, or our online form, and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
