Custom-Fit Mouth Guards for Optimal Dental Protection
What Are Mouth Guards?
Olney Pediatric Dentist
Mouth Guards are crucial protective devices designed to shield your child’s teeth and mouth during sports and other activities where dental injuries are a concern. They are especially important for young athletes involved in contact sports like football, hockey, or martial arts, where the risk of dental trauma is higher. A mouth guard acts as a cushion between the teeth and any potential impact, helping to prevent injuries to the teeth, gums, and jaw. By providing a protective barrier, mouth guards help reduce the risk of dental trauma, ensuring that your child can enjoy their favorite activities while keeping their smile intact.
In addition to contact sports, mouth guards are beneficial for children involved in non-contact activities, as they can still encounter accidental bumps and falls. Custom-fitted mouth guards offer the best protection and comfort, making it easier for your child to breathe and speak while playing.
Benefits of Mouth Guards
Prevention of Dental Injuries
Custom mouth guards absorb and distribute impact forces, significantly reducing the risk of chipped, cracked, or knocked-out teeth during sports and high-risk activities.
Protection Against Jaw Injuries
Mouth guards provide cushioning for the teeth and jaw, helping to prevent or lessen the severity of jaw fractures and other related injuries.
Enhanced Safety in Non-Contact Sports
Research shows that mouth guards offer added protection even in non-contact sports like basketball or soccer. They help safeguard against injuries from impacts with the ball or accidental collisions, contributing to overall oral safety.
