Mouth Guards
MOUTH GUARDS , as the name suggests, protect the oral tissues from injury during sports. Injury to the teeth and gum is very common in contact as well as non-contact sports. At times, teeth can be lost permanently due to such injuries.
Mouth guards act like shock absorbers and with their cushioning effect, help to avoid injuries to the oral tissue. Many sports like Rugby, AFL and Hockey have made it compulsary for the players to wear mouthguards to avoid injuries to oral tissues.
Mouth guards are available as "off the counter" or can be custom made. "Off the counter" mouthguards have limited sizes which may not suit your mouth and hence not give enough protection. They also can be uncomfortable due to its bulkiness. Some "DIY" products are available but they may not have a professional outcome.
Custom made mouth guards at Exquisite Smiles are professionaly made to suit your mouth and dental needs. Being custom made they feel very comfortable in the mouth and also provide the required protection to the oral tissues. They are available in various colours and designs.
