MOUTHGUARDS

Protect your smile with a custom sports mouthguard

Whether you're on the field, court, or track, a mouthguard is essential for many athletes. Mouthguards help protect your gums, teeth, and jaws from injury during practice and on game day.  They are designed to protect against potential damage from sports injuries, teeth grinding, and other physical impacts.

Are mouthguards necessary?

Though you may find over the counter mouthguards that  fit okay, a custom mouthguard offers many benefits.  They fit much more securely over teeth, staying in place while you enjoy you stay active.  This also allows for better speech and better focus on your activity. 

 

Having a custom athletic mouthguard made for you by our team at Godley Family Orthodontics is simple and well worth the comfort and security it provides to protect your smile.  A well-fitted mouthguard covers braces and retainers and protects against potential dental trauma. Talk with your orthodontist about which mouthguard is right for you.

ADVANTAGES OF CUSTOM ORTHODONTIC MOUTHGUARDS

Custom-made athletic mouthguards offer superior protection and comfort compared to most over-the-counter guards:

  • Precise fit: molded to the exact contours of your teeth and gums for optimal comfort and stability.

  • Superior protection: provides a cushioning barrier between your teeth and your lips, cheeks, and tongue, reducing the risk of soft tissue injuries.

  • Enhanced communication: designed for easy breathing and clear communication, even during intense activity.

  • Improved compliance: More comfortable to wear, encouraging consistent use and maximizing protection.

  • Durable: made from high-quality materials to withstand the wear and tear of sports.

  • Customized options: can be personalized with colors and designs to match your style.
