Mouthguards

Are you worried about protecting your teeth during sports and high-impact activities?

Are you looking for a way to safeguard your teeth and gums from accidental impacts?

Protect Your Teeth with Comfortable, Custom-Fitted Mouthguards

Whether you’re playing contact sports or dealing with teeth grinding at night, a professionally fitted mouthguard is one of the simplest and most effective ways to protect your teeth, gums, and jaw. At Frenchs Forest Dental, we provide custom-made mouthguards that offer superior comfort and protection compared to over-the-counter options.

Led by Dr. Ali Shakoori, our team uses high-quality materials and advanced techniques to ensure that each mouthguard is perfectly fitted for maximum comfort and performance.

What Is a Mouthguard?

A mouthguard is a protective dental device designed to shield your teeth, gums, and jaw from injury. Whether used for sports or nighttime protection, mouthguards are custom-moulded to fit your unique dental structure.

For athletes, a sports mouthguard helps prevent chipped, broken, or knocked-out teeth during contact sports or high-impact activities. For patients who grind their teeth at night—a condition known as bruxism—a night guard protects the teeth from wear and tear and can also reduce jaw pain and headaches.

Because they are custom-made, professional mouthguards provide a snug, comfortable fit without interfering with breathing or speech, offering superior protection and performance.

What Can Mouthguards Treat?

Mouthguards help prevent a wide range of dental and jaw issues. They reduce the risk of dental trauma caused by impacts during sport, including fractured teeth, gum injuries, and jaw fractures. For those with orthodontic appliances, a mouthguard can protect braces and prevent injury to soft tissues.

Night guards can also relieve the symptoms of teeth grinding and clenching, such as jaw pain, tooth wear, headaches, and disrupted sleep. Patients with extensive dental work—such as crowns, bridges, or implants—also benefit from the extra protection that a custom mouthguard provides.

How Does the Mouthguard Process Work?

At Frenchs Forest Dental, the process of getting a custom mouthguard is straightforward:

First, we conduct an initial consultation to assess your needs—whether you require a sports guard, night guard, or orthodontic mouthguard. We then take precise impressions of your teeth to ensure the mouthguard will fit perfectly.

The mouthguard is fabricated at a professional dental lab using high-quality materials. Once ready, you’ll return for a fitting session, where we ensure the mouthguard fits comfortably and securely. You’ll also receive instructions on how to care for and clean your mouthguard.

Periodic check-ups are recommended to ensure the mouthguard continues to fit correctly, especially for growing children or patients undergoing orthodontic treatment.

When Should You Consider a Mouthguard?

You should consider getting a custom mouthguard if:

  • You participate in contact sports such as football, hockey, martial arts, or rugby
  • You grind or clench your teeth at night, experiencing jaw pain or tooth wear
  • You wear braces or have significant dental work that needs protection during activities

Our Treatments

Select a mouthguard that fits snugly, is comfortable to wear, and provides adequate protection. Custom-fitted mouthguards are often the best choice for sports, while over-the-counter options may also be suitable.
A nightguard, or occlusal splint, is used to prevent teeth grinding during sleep. It helps protect teeth from damage, alleviate jaw pain, and reduce the risk of related problems like headaches.
Rinse your mouthguard with cold water after use and brush it with a toothbrush and toothpaste. Store it in a clean, ventilated container when not in use. Regular cleaning and proper storage extend the life of your mouthguard.
The lifespan of a mouthguard depends on factors like usage and wear. It’s recommended to inspect your mouthguard regularly and replace it if you notice signs of wear and tear, such as cracks or distortions. Custom mouthguards tend to last longer than over-the-counter options.
