We use our iTero Machine to take impressions of your mouth, so the mouthguard is unique to your bite, ensuring it sits securely over your teeth without slipping or feeling bulky. A better fit means you’re more likely to wear it during games and practices.

Custom Sports Mouthguards to Protect Your Smile
If you or your child plays sports, a proper mouthguard is crucial for protecting your smile. Our clinic offers custom-made sports mouthguards to protect your teeth from impact and injury during athletic activities. A sports mouthguard is a flexible oral appliance worn over your top teeth during sports like hockey, football, basketball, martial arts, or any activity where there’s a risk of contact or collision. Our custom sports guards are created from an impression of your teeth, so they fit much better than generic boil-and-bite mouthguards. This snug fit means better protection, greater comfort, and easier breathing while you play.

Benefits of a Custom Sports Mouthguard
Comfortable, secure fit
Easy breathing and speaking
Because a custom mouthguard fits precisely, it is less intrusive in your mouth. You can breathe naturally and speak to teammates more easily compared to an over-the-counter guard, which often requires you to clench your jaw to hold it in place.
Superior protection
Our high-quality mouthguards evenly distribute the force of any impact. This greatly reduces the risk of chipped or knocked-out teeth, fractured jaws, or cuts to your lips and tongue if you take a hit to the face. A well-fitted guard can also help absorb shock, potentially lowering the risk of concussions by cushioning the upper and lower jaws from forceful collisions.
Durable materials
Custom sports guards are made from tough, tear-resistant material that can withstand frequent use. They tend to last longer through the season than cheaper store-bought guards, which means better protection all season long.
How to Care for Your Sports Mouthguard
To care for your mouthguard, rinse it with cold water before and after every use. You can gently clean it with a toothbrush and mild soap (or toothpaste) regularly. Always allow it to air-dry and store it in a ventilated case to prevent bacterial growth. We recommend bringing your mouthguard to your regular dental checkups so we can ensure it still fits well – especially for kids and teens, as their mouths are still growing and the guard may need periodic replacement. Generally, a sports mouthguard should be replaced at the end of each sports season, or at least once a year, as the material can wear down over time.
