Sports injuries

     
 

Custom made sports mouth guard
You can't put a price on your smile or your child's, but you can protect it with a custom made mouthguard.

If you play any contact sport whatsoever then wearing a custom-made mouthguard is a must.

The British Dental Association advises that custom-made mouthguards should be chosen and not shop bought boil & bite products which may not fit properly and consequently not give the desired protection.

Custom-made mouthguards are described as essential by the Rugby Football Union and are strongly recommended by the English Hockey Association.

Wearing a mouthguard doesn't just help protect your teeth - it protects the brain too. By wearing a mouthguard, you spread the force of an impact and concussion is far less likely.

A mouthguard should be worn for: Rugby, Hockey, Lacrosse, Squash, Martial Arts, Mountain Biking, Horse Riding and all types of contact sports.

Did You Know?
