Avoid Dental Emergencies by Protecting Your Teeth
The American Dental Association, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, and othergroups encourage wearing mouthguards for all high-impact sports and activities. These sports include one or more of the following:
- Contact between athletes
- Frequent jumping
- Frequent changes in speed or direction
- Throwing, kicking, hitting, or catching objects
According to the Journal of the American Dental Association, more than 5 million teeth are knocked out every year, many of which happen while people are participating in sports. Replacing those teeth costs more than $500 million annually.
Custom mouthguards can be beneficial for more than just sports. We can also create mouthguards that treat:
- Sleep Apnea – A custom oral appliance can keep your airway open while you sleep and stop your snoring. Get better rest without a CPAP.
- TMJ Disorders – We can design a nightguard to keep you from grinding and clenching your teeth. This can stop frequent headaches and other symptoms of TMJ disorders.
