Protect Your Smile While You Play
Playing sports is an excellent way for people of all ages to remain active. Additionally, it can help keep our mental and physical health in top condition. However, we must protect our teeth, gums, and other tissues while participating on the rink, court, or field.
Injuries to the mouth and teeth can happen any time, anywhere. The risk is present not only in sports deemed high-impact but also in many types of physical activities.
This is why we recommend mouth guards, also referred to as sports guards, to help protect your head, neck, and face while you play.
At Trail Family Dental, our dentists offer customized mouth guard devices to fit our patients' precise requirements.
Prevention is the Best Treatment
Impact to the face can harm our jaw and neck, potentially resulting in concussions and tooth loss.
Our Trail dentists see far too many patients with a variety of sports-related dental and mouth injuries. These injuries can be costly and time-consuming to repair, so we firmly believe that prevention is the best treatment.
Both amateur and professional athletes should wear a custom-made sports guard while participating in any activity where falls or contact can happen.
Benefits of a Sports Mouth Guard
Wearing a sports mouth guard is a smart way to keep your teeth safe and avoid any damage to your mouth or soft tissues. Whether you’re playing on the court, rink, or field, it provides that extra layer of protection against collisions with a ball or other players!
For amateur and professional athletes of all ages, sports guards work to prevent tooth loss and injury, and save you from needing to make a same-day appointment with your dentist.
We can fit you with a custom-made mouth guard to help protect your teeth and gums while you play, so you can keep your head in the game.
