Mouthguards
Protect your smile
Your teeth and jaw can be placed at risk of serious and expensive injury by many sporting activities. A custom mouthguard is a comfortable, simple way to make sure that you are protected while you play.
Avoid serious injury with custom-made mouthguards for kids and adults
A mouthguard that is custom-fitted to your mouth is much more likely to provide the complete and comfortable protection that you want than any one-size-fits-all brand. At Luma Dentistry, we understand the needs of athletes of all ages and levels and can provide you with a mouthguard that is exactly the protection that you need.
Mouthguards are an important piece of gear for many kinds of physical activities and sports, from rollerblading and baseball to soccer and boxing.
Hundreds of thousands of injuries occur every year involving the face and mouth; injuries that many times could be avoided or minimized if a mouthguard had been worn, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Mouthguards provide valuable protection for the jaw, face, tongue, lips, and teeth. For example, a traumatic blow to the front of the face can not only tear soft tissue or knock out teeth but also may force the lower jaw into the upper jaw. A mouthguard can help keep your teeth from tearing the soft tissues of your mouth during a traumatic injury. And in all cases, mouthguards can protect you when you’re wearing bridges or braces.
