Potential Benefits of Custom Mouthguards

Custom mouthguards can offer a range of potential benefits for individuals who participate in sports or other physical activities. These include the following:

How to Care for Your Mouthguard

Proper care for a custom mouthguard can help maintain its effectiveness and longevity. After each use, it's important to rinse the mouthguard with cool water to remove saliva and debris. Gently brushing it with a soft toothbrush and approved cleaning agents can also help keep it in a hygienic condition, but avoid using hot water, which may warp the material.

When not in use, store the mouthguard in a ventilated case to allow it to dry properly. This helps prevent the buildup of bacteria and keeps it in good condition. Keep the case clean and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Regularly inspect the mouthguard for signs of wear, such as cracks or tears. If it shows signs of damage, it may need to be replaced to ensure continued protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a custom mouthguard be replaced?
The frequency of replacing a custom mouthguard depends on how often it is used and how well it is cared for. Athletes who use their mouthguard regularly may need to replace it every one to two years, while those who use it less frequently may find it lasts longer. Signs that it needs replacement include visible wear, tears or a change in how it fits.
Can I wear a custom mouthguard if I have braces?
Yes, custom mouthguards can be made for individuals with braces. In fact, they are highly recommended for those wearing braces who participate in sports, as they offer a layer of protection not only for the teeth but also for the orthodontic hardware. The custom fit ensures that the mouthguard accommodates the braces while providing comfort and protection during physical activity.
Who should wear a custom mouthguard?
Custom mouthguards are ideal for individuals who participate in contact sports such as football, boxing, hockey or rugby. They can also be beneficial for those who engage in non-contact activities that pose a risk of dental injury, like cycling or gymnastics. Additionally, custom mouthguards can be used by individuals who grind their teeth (bruxism), providing protection for teeth during sleep.
