Why You Should Buy a Custom Mouthguard

Posted on 12 April 2022

Custom mouthguards help protect against teeth grinding as well as against sports injuries. Your dentist can give you a quote for a custom mouthguard, helping to provide maximum protection to your teeth and gums.

Key takeaways:

• Custom mouthguards are made to fit your teeth and your bite to provide a higher level of protection than store-bought mouthguards, which can be too large for many people.
• Custom mouthguards tend to be twice as thick as store-bought alternatives, one of the reasons they provide higher levels of protection.
• As they are made to fit your teeth and bite, custom mouthguards feel more natural and are more comfortable to use.
