This month, we wanted to share a bit about the importance of mouthguards. Whether you’re playing a contact sport or engaging in any activity where objects may come in contact with your face, a custom mouthguard is an essential piece of protective gear.
How Do They Help?
Mouthguards are designed to protect your teeth, jaw, and face from injury. They are especially important for contact sports like football, basketball, and hockey where the risk of impact to the face is high. By wearing a guard, you can prevent damage to your teeth and jaw, as well as reduce the risk of being knocked unconscious.
It’s not just athletes who need to wear them either. Anyone who grinds their teeth at night can benefit from wearing one to protect their teeth from damage. They are suitable for both kids and adults, and come in a variety of sizes and colors to match your preferences.
