A sports mouthguard helps protect the teeth from damage or displacement during sports or other vigorous physical activities. It can also provide some additional protection to the head and jaw area.
While mouthguards are available for purchase at many retail stores, a custom-made mouthguard can be designed by your dentist to closely fit your mouth. This process typically involves taking impressions of your teeth, which are then used to fabricate a mouthguard that fits securely and comfortably.
An accurately fitted mouthguard is more likely to stay in place and may be more comfortable to wear compared to a generic version.
Factors that can influence the cost of a custom-made mouthguard include:
The process of taking impressions and creating a precise model of your teeth
Adjustments made by the dentist to improve comfort and fit
The materials used and the level of customization required
Custom mouthguards may also be recommended for individuals who grind or clench their teeth, as the dentist can adjust the thickness and fit to meet specific needs.
