As we mentioned before, Mouthguards can be used for a myriad of reasons, but their overall purpose is going to be protecting your teeth. Utilizing digital x-rays and 3-D imaging technology, your dentist can produce an accurate and detailed 3-D render in order to create and produce a custom appliance for your smile. Not only does this increase the comfortability, but it provides a closer seal that takes care to adequately protect you without having to endure the messy molding material traditionally used for creating mouthguards.
Dental injuries can occur at any given time, whether through accidents that may result in emergency oral surgeries, sports, and physical activity, or even grinding your teeth in your sleep. While it is true you cannot prevent all injuries or accidents from occurring, you can absolutely minimize the damage done to your health by taking precautions to ensure its safety. Custom Dental Mouthguards offer a way to ensure your smile’s vitality by providing protection against a variety of circumstances that could lead to a chipped or cracked tooth and even tooth loss.
In addition to protecting your teeth from disease or other circumstances, dental appliances can be used for athletic purposes such as sports. They can be custom-made for football practice, for boxing, or really any circumstance in which you know there may be some risk of injury while participating. By having a custom fit, you minimize your chances of significant trauma to your teeth.
Whether you are gearing up for a sporting event or preventing your teeth from grinding throughout the night, a custom-created mouthguard can provide the protection you need from oral injuries, such as chipped, cracked, or knocked-out teeth.
