Protect Your Smile While You Play
Participating in sports is a great way for people of all ages to stay active. Furthermore, it supports optimal mental and physical health. However, it's crucial to safeguard our teeth, gums, and other tissues while engaging in activities on the rink, court, or field.
Injuries to the mouth and teeth can occur anytime, anywhere. The risk exists not only in high-impact sports but also in many other types of physical activities.
This is why we recommend mouth guards, also referred to as sports guards, to help protect your head, neck, and face while you play.
At South Cariboo Dental Clinic, our dentists offer customized mouth guard devices to fit our patients' precise requirements.
Prevention is the Best Treatment
Impact to the face can damage our jaw and neck, potentially leading to concussions and tooth loss.
Our 100 Mile House dentists see too many patients with various sports-related dental and mouth injuries. These injuries can be expensive and time-consuming to treat, so we strongly believe that prevention is the most effective solution.
Both amateur and professional athletes should wear a custom sports guard when engaging in any activity that involves the risk of falls or contact.
Benefits of a Sports Mouth Guard
Wearing a sports mouthguard is a smart way to protect your teeth and prevent damage to your mouth or soft tissues. Whether you’re playing on the court, rink, or field, it offers an extra layer of protection against collisions with a ball or other players!
Sports guards protect both amateur and professional athletes of all ages from tooth loss and injuries, helping you avoid last-minute trips to the dentist.
