In the same way helmets protect against head trauma, mouthguards are the go-to to prevent injuries to the face and mouth.

Athletes of all ages, genders, and skill levels are at risk of sustaining a dental injury. While it can be scary to think about, mouthguards are great at doing their job.

Six reasons why you should wear a protective mouthguard: 

1. They protect your teeth from cracking and breaking
2. They help to prevent from tooth displacement
3. Protect your mouth from soft tissue injuries
4. Can help to prevent against concussions
5. Mouthguards protect against jaw fractures 

1. We take an impression of your mouth that essentially gives us a “copy” of your teeth.
2. Stone plaster is poured into the impression and allowed to harden to make a stone model of your teeth.
3. The model of your teeth is placed onto the vacuum machine where the template of the mouthguard is placed as well.
4. The heat from the Sta-Vac warms up the mouthguard template and is then vacuumed over the stone model.
5. Once the mouthguard template is set and formed completely, the template can be removed from the model.
6. The template is then trimmed and polished to take shape of the mouthguard that will be inserted into your mouth to protect your teeth.

Yes, you can wear a mouth guard over braces. The mouthguards will be custom made to fit the mould of your braces and brackets for maximum comfort and protection. They are made of medical grade silicon and will adapt to changes in the mouth structure as teeth adjust, making them a worthwhile investment in your smile while wearing braces.
