Summer break is only a few days away for some, and for many this means a chance to play sports and enjoy the warm weather. But this could also increase the risk of a damaged tooth. Fortunately, your Riverside Dental Group team can help protect your smile all summer long with a custom-made mouthguard.
Summer Break and Damaged Teeth
When we play full contact sports, this could increase the risk of a chipped or cracked tooth. Even minor damage could mean the onset of tooth decay and infection, which not only cause pain, but could threaten the stability of your teeth. Our team can repair your teeth, but we would love to help you avoid the need for treatment altogether. With a Pro-form mouthguard, our team can provide a layer of protection more substantial than is possible with standard boil-and-bite mouthguards from sporting goods stores!
A Pro-Form Mouthguard
Each of these mouthguards will be custom-made for your smile, which means they fit snugly over the teeth and provide a greater level of protection. Each one is crafted using two layers of laminated vinyl. We then add a special lingual plate that fits behind your incisors. The unique design means that pressure is better distributed and the laminating process helps the oral appliance keep its shape. They can be worn multiple times without losing shape or losing their ability to safeguard your smile.
They not only prevent teeth from being cracked or chipped, but they also help prevent lacerations in the gums and cheeks. There is a lowered risk of fractures or breakage in the jaw, and this could even limit the chances of a concussion. They can protect orthodontics too. For fun, these can be customized with different colors, and they also last as long as a year!
Emergency Dental Care
If you ever do have a tooth that is chipped or cracked, we hope you will see us right away for dental emergency care. We may be able to see you same-day, and if the injury happens outside of normal business hours, leave a message and we can contact you with potential appointment times as soon as possible.
