Do you play sports or engage in other activities that could potentially lead to damaged teeth? If so, then you need a layer of protection to prevent chipped, cracked, or even knocked-out teeth. In today’s blog, your Riverside Dental Group team talks about how we safeguard smiles with our Pro Form mouthguards.
When Smiles Need a Mouthguard
If you play full contact sports, or if you box or practice martial arts, then there is always the risk of an injury to your teeth. In addition to your immediate discomfort, damaged teeth could be more likely to develop tooth decay or infection with time. You could also risk a tooth being knocked loose or even out completely. But with a mouthguard, you can lower the risk of these injuries. While you can buy a standard boil-and-bite version from a sporting goods store, a custom option provides a greater level of protection. Our team can create one especially for your smile that fits comfortably and provides better protection than other options. Our Pro-form athletic mouthguards can help safeguard your teeth!
The Pro Form Difference
Each one of our Pro-form Mouthguards is crafted from two layers of laminated vinyl. We then add a special lingual plate that fits behind the incisors. With these layers and plates, pressure is better distributed to protect the teeth from injury. The laminating process also ensures that the guard will keep its shape even after multiple uses, providing better protection for longer periods. Each one can last a year and you can choose your favorite color.
When in place, these also help teens by protecting their orthodontics against damage to brackets or wires. The jaw is also better protected against fractures, and the gums and cheeks are less likely to be cut or injured too. They’ve even been shown to help lower the risk of concussions.
If you have any questions about our Pro-form Mouthguards, or if you want one for yourself or your child, then contact our team today. We look forward to helping you keep your smile safe when you play sports.
