Mouthguards

Geraldton Denture Clinic fits and molds patients with new mouthguards.

Sports Mouth Guards are very important for children and adults when participating in sporting activities. It is very costly to replace or repair teeth that have been damaged or knocked out while playing sport, as well as the inconvenience of missing school or work.

Only a custom made molded mouth guard will guarantee the best protection from impact. An impression is taken of the mouth and a mouth guard is constructed to fit your personal dentition. This results in a more comfortable and well fitting protective appliance. Custom made mouth guards fit perfectly over each individual tooth, do not move in the mouth and allow you to breathe and speak easily.

A custom mouthguard offers many benefits:

• Consistent thickness and protection
• Less bulk, making it easier to speak and breathe
• Greater comfort
• Will not fall out

To create a custom sports mouthguard, our dental prosthetist takes an impression of your mouth with a putty-like material. We then use plaster to construct a model of your teeth. Once this has been produced, the mouthguard is vacuum-sealed around this model by a special machine. The resulting product will fit only your mouth, and will fit it perfectly.
