A mouthguard is the very best protection you can offer your smile
SSS Clinic in Ealing London can provide you with state-of-the-art custom made athletic mouthguards to protect your teeth. It is absolutely crucial that you or your child wear a mouthguard when you’re playing any sport where human contact or contact of a ball or bat etc. is a possibility. If you are worried about your appearance while wearing a mouthguard, think about how your appearance will look if you collide with a cricket ball and have your teeth severely injured. Not only do mouthguards protect your teeth from aesthetic damage they also protect your mouth, jaw, teeth and gums from pain and dislocation.
Who needs a mouthguard?
Anyone who participates in a sport that carries a significant risk of injury should wear a mouthguard. This includes a wide range of sports like football, hockey, basketball, baseball, gymnastics and volleyball. A properly fitted mouthguard is especially important for people who wear braces or have fixed bridge work as it’s no use receiving restorative dental procedures if you’re going to put your teeth in danger during sporting activities.
Problems with store bought mouth guards
Store brought over the counter Mouthguards do not fit as well nor do they provide the anticipated and necessary protection to help prevent dental facial injuries. The only sports mouthguard that should be worn is that made from a model of your own unique mouth. Here at SSS Clinic we know that patients have individual requirements for fit, comfort and level of competition. This is why our mouthguards are professionally designed and custom made to satisfy all safety and personal requirements. Once we construct your personalised mouthguard the only thing left up to you is compliance. It is absolutely imperative that you comply to the use of your mouthguard as accidents can happen at any time on the field or court.
