Athletic activities, especially contact sports, carry a risk of dental injuries. Custom sports guards are essential for protecting teeth, gums, and jaws from trauma. At Pacific Highway Dental in Surrey, we provide professionally fitted mouthguards designed to offer maximum protection and comfort for athletes of all ages.

Protecting Teeth from Trauma

Sports guards act as a barrier between the teeth and external forces. They absorb and distribute impact, reducing the likelihood of chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth during sports activities.

Preventing Jaw and Soft Tissue Injuries

In addition to protecting teeth, custom sports guards cushion the jaw and protect the lips, tongue, and cheeks from lacerations and bruising caused by sudden impact.

Enhancing Comfort and Performance

Unlike generic store-bought mouthguards, custom-fitted guards are tailored to the individual’s teeth and bite. This ensures a comfortable fit, making it easier for athletes to breathe, speak, and perform without distraction.

Reducing Risk of Concussions

Some studies suggest that well-fitted sports guards can help reduce the risk of concussions by absorbing shock from impacts to the jaw, which may otherwise be transmitted to the skull and brain.

Durable and Long-Lasting

Custom sports guards are made from high-quality materials designed to withstand repeated impacts. With proper care, they last longer and provide consistent protection compared to over-the-counter options.

Ideal for All Ages and Sports

Whether playing hockey, football, basketball, or martial arts, athletes of all ages benefit from custom sports guards. They are particularly important for children and teenagers, whose developing teeth are more vulnerable to injury.
