FAQs
What’s the difference between a custom mouthguard and a store-bought one?
Custom mouthguards are specifically moulded to your teeth, offering a superior fit, greater comfort, and better protection than generic store-bought versions. They are made from high-quality materials that last longer and are designed to stay securely in place during activity, allowing you to perform without distraction.
How often should I replace my mouthguard?
Mouthguards should be replaced every 1–2 years, depending on wear and tear. For growing children and teens, more frequent replacements may be needed to accommodate changes in their teeth and jaw. Regular check-ups allow us to monitor the condition and fit of your mouthguard.
Can mouthguards protect against concussions?
While mouthguards primarily protect your teeth and jaw, they can also help reduce the risk of concussions by cushioning the impact to the jaw, which can lessen the force transmitted to the head. However, no mouthguard can completely eliminate the risk of concussions.
