The value of professionally made mouthguards for Geelong patients

By wearing quality mouthguards Geelong people are adding a valuable layer of protection to their teeth whenever they take part in their chosen sport.

The trusty sports mouthguard can save you from a world of hurt. While cheaper products you can buy off-the-shelf offer some protection, ones that are custom-made by professionals to fit your mouth will be a superior shield.

Whether you play sports such as hockey, soccer or football or take part in martial arts or boxing, you need to protect your mouth. Balls, sticks and collisions can cause serious damage including broken teeth and even jaw if players are unprotected.

With well-fitting mouthguards Geelong people get the benefit of the device’s shock absorbing properties that spread the force of any contact over the whole mouth. They also provide a protective barrier between upper and lower teeth. Because dentists use an impression of their client’s teeth to form an accurate mould, the end product’s fit will be comfortable and snug.
